Inertial waves transport energy and momentum in rotating fluids and are a major contributor to mixing and tidal dissipation in Earth's oceans, gaseous planets, and stellar interiors. However, their stability and breakdown mechanisms are not…
We characterize statistical properties of the flow field in developed turbulence using concepts from stochastic thermodynamics. On the basis of data from a free air-jet experiment, we demonstrate how the dynamic fluctuations induced by…
The presence of nonlocal interactions and intermittent signals in the homogeneous isotropic turbulence grant multi-point statistical functions a key role in formulating a new generation of large-eddy simulation (LES) models of higher…
The problem of intermittency in developed hydrodynamic turbulence is considered. Explicit formulae taking into account effects of finite size of the inertial range are presented for the whole set of intermittency exponents. The formulae fit…
Spatial intermittency in decaying kinetic Alfven wave turbulence is investigated to determine if it produces non Gaussian density fluctuations in the interstellar medium. Non Gaussian density fluctuations have been inferred from pulsar…
We introduce a model for the turbulent energy cascade aimed at studying the effect of dynamical scaling on intermittency. In particular, we show that by slowing down the energy transfer mechanism for fixed energy flux, intermittency…
We use a coarse-graining approach to prove that inter-scale transfer of kinetic energy in compressible turbulence is dominated by local interactions. Locality here means that interactions between disparate scales decay at least as fast as a…
The asymmetries that arise when a mixing layer involves two miscible fluids of differing densities are investigated using incompressible (low-speed) direct numerical simulations. The simulations are performed in the temporal configuration…
The features of turbulence modulation produced by a heavy loaded suspension of small solid particles or liquid droplets are discussed by using a physically-based regularisation of particle-fluid interactions. The approach allows a robust…
Comprehensive knowledge of local flame displacement speed, $S_d$, in turbulent premixed flames is crucial towards the design and development of hydrogen fuelled next-generation engines. Premixed hydrogen-air flames are characterized by…
In the standard cascade picture of 3D turbulent fluid flows, energy is input at a constant rate at large scales. Energy is then transferred to smaller scales by an intermittent process that has been the focus of a vast literature. However,…
We present a status report on a discrete approach to the the near-equilibrium statistical theory of three-dimensional turbulence, which generalizes earlier work by no longer requiring that the vorticity field be a union of discrete vortex…
Using a generalization of extended self-similarity we have studied local scaling properties of 3D turbulence in a direct numerical simulation. We have found that these properties are consistent with lognormal-like behavior of energy…
Turbulence is a non-local phenomenon and has multiple-scales. Non-locality can be addressed either implicitly or explicitly. Implicitly, by subsequent resolution of all spatio-temporal scales. However, if directly solved for the temporal or…
We address the interactions between optical solitons in the system with longitudinally varying nonlocality degree and nonlinearity strength. We consider a physical model describing light propagation in nematic liquid crystals featuring a…
Extending the statistical approach proposed in a parallel paper \cite% {Tessarotto2008-aa}, purpose of this work is to propose a stochastic inverse kinetic theory for small-scale hydrodynamic turbulence based on the introduction of a…
We present a one-equation subgrid scale model that evolves the turbulence energy corresponding to unresolved velocity fluctuations in large eddy simulations. The model is derived in the context of the Germano consistent decomposition of the…
This article is focused on the dynamics of a rotating electrically conducting fluid in a turbulent state. As inside the Earth's core or in various industrial processes, a flow is altered by the presence of both background rotation and a…
Experiments have shown that micron-sized distributed surface roughness can significantly promote transition in a three-dimensional boundary layer dominated by crossflow insta- bility. This sensitive effect has not yet been fully explained…
In nonlinear dynamical systems with highly nonorthogonal linear eigenvectors, linear non-modal analysis is more useful than normal mode analysis in predicting turbulent properties. However, the non-trivial time evolution of non-modal…
