formation, a significant number of studies have emerged in the past 15 years concerning the …

Statistical models for the dynamics of heavy particles in turbulence

J Bec, K Gustavsson, B Mehlig - Annual Review of Fluid …, 2024 - annualreviews.org
When very small particles are suspended in a fluid in motion, they tend to follow the flow.
How such tracer particles are mixed, transported, and dispersed by turbulent flow has been …
