Herein, we derive the fractional Laplacian operator as a means to represent the mean friction force arising in a turbulent flow: $ \rho \frac{D\bar{\bf u}}{Dt} = -\nabla p + \mu_\alpha \nabla^2\bar{\bf u} + \rho C_\alpha…
A fundamental problem in plasma physics, space science, and astrophysics is the transport of energetic particles interacting with stochastic magnetic fields. In particular the motion of particles across a large scale magnetic field is…
When expressed in Lagrangian variables, the equations of motion for compressible (barotropic) fluids have the structure of a classical Hamiltonian system in which the potential energy is given by the internal energy of the fluid. The…
The equation describing the stochastic motion of a classical particle in 1+1-dimensional space-time is connected to the Dirac equation with external gauge fields. The effects of assigning different turning probabilities to the forward and…
In probability density function (PDF) methods of turbulent flows, the joint PDF of several flow variables is computed by numerically integrating a system of stochastic differential equations for Lagrangian particles. A set of parallel…
Finite-size impurities suspended in incompressible flows distribute inhomogeneously, leading to a drastic enhancement of collisions. A description of the dynamics in the full position-velocity phase space is essential to understand the…
Lagrangian stochastic methods are widely used to model turbulent flows. Scarce consideration has, however, been devoted to the treatment of the near-wall region and to the formulation of a proper wall-boundary condition. With respect to…
We study existence and stability of travelling waves for nonlinear convection diffusion equations in the 1-D Euclidean space. The diffusion coefficient depends on the gradient in analogy with the p-Laplacian and may be degenerate.…
We report experimental measurements of Lagrangian accelerations in the bulk of intense turbulent flows of dilute polymer solutions by following tracer particles with a high-speed optical tracking system. We observed a significant decrease…
A new scaling law model for propagation of optical beams through atmospheric turbulence is presented and compared to a common scalar stochastic waveoptics technique. This methodology tracks the evolution of the important beam wavefront and…
In this paper, the approach for investigation of asymptotic ($Re\to \infty$) scaling exponents of Eulerian structure functions (J. Schumacher et al, New. J. of Physics {\bf 9}, 89 (2007)) is generalized to studies of Lagrangian structure…
Motivated by challenges in Earth mantle convection, we present a massively parallel implementation of an Eulerian-Lagrangian method for the advection-diffusion equation in the advection-dominated regime. The advection term is treated by a…
In this paper, we consider the strong convergence of the time-space fractional diffusion equation driven by fractional Gaussion noise with Hurst index $H\in(\frac{1}{2},1)$. A sharp regularity estimate of the mild solution and the numerical…
Based on geometric considerations, longitudinal and transverse Lagrangian velocity increments are introduced as components along, and perpendicular to, the displacement of fluid particles during a time scale {\tau}. It is argued that these…
We derive from the Navier-Stokes equation an exact equation satisfied by the dissipation rate correlation function. We exploit its mathematical similarity to the corresponding equation derived from the 1-dimensional stochastic Burgers…
A semi-Lagrangian method for parabolic problems is proposed, that extends previous work by the authors to achieve a fully conservative, flux-form discretization of linear and nonlinear diffusion equations. A basic consistency and…
We consider the motion of a particle governed by a weakly random Hamiltonian flow. We identify temporal and spatial scales on which the particle trajectory converges to a spatial Brownian motion. The main technical issue in the proof is to…
An Eulerian-Lagrangian approach to incompressible fluids that is convenient for both analysis and physics is presented. Bounds on burning rates in combustion and heat transfer in convection are discussed, as well as results concerning…
We study uncertainty in the dynamics of time-dependent flows by identifying barriers and enhancers to stochastic transport. This topological segmentation is closely related to the theory of Lagrangian coherent structures and is based on a…
We study the statistical properties of coherent, small-scales, filamentary-like structures in Turbulence. In order to follow in time such complex spatial structures, we integrate Lagrangian and Eulerian measurements by seeding the flow with…
