Cascades and transitions in turbulent flows

A Alexakis, L Biferale - Physics Reports, 2018 - Elsevier
Turbulent flows are characterized by the non-linear cascades of energy and other inviscid
invariants across a huge range of scales, from where they are injected to where they are …

Turbulence theories and statistical closure approaches

Y Zhou - Physics Reports, 2021 - Elsevier
When discussing research in physics and in science more generally, it is common to ascribe
equal importance to the three components of the scientific trinity: theoretical, experimental …

Shell models of energy cascade in turbulence

L Biferale - Annual review of fluid mechanics, 2003 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract We review the most important theoretical and numerical results obtained in the
realm of shell models for the energy-turbulent cascade. We mainly focus here on those …

Correlation functions in isotropic and anisotropic turbulence: The role of the symmetry group

I Arad, VS L'vov, I Procaccia - Physical Review E, 1999 - APS
The theory of fully developed turbulence is usually considered in an idealized
homogeneous and isotropic state. Real turbulent flows exhibit the effects of anisotropic …

Variable energy flux in turbulence

MK Verma - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
In three-dimensional hydrodynamic turbulence forced at large length scales, a constant
energy flux Π u flows from large scales to intermediate scales, and then to small scales. It is …

Fully developed isotropic turbulence: Nonperturbative renormalization group formalism and fixed-point solution

L Canet, B Delamotte, N Wschebor - Physical Review E, 2016 - APS
We investigate the regime of fully developed homogeneous and isotropic turbulence of the
Navier-Stokes (NS) equation in the presence of a stochastic forcing, using the …

Inertial range Eulerian and Lagrangian statistics from numerical simulations of isotropic turbulence

R Benzi, L Biferale, R Fisher, DQ Lamb… - Journal of Fluid …, 2010 - cambridge.org
We present a study of Eulerian and Lagrangian statistics from a high-resolution numerical
simulation of isotropic and homogeneous turbulence using the FLASH code, with an …

Lagrangian method for multiple correlations in passive scalar advection

U Frisch, A Mazzino, A Noullez, M Vergassola - Physics of Fluids, 1999 - pubs.aip.org
A Lagrangian method is introduced for calculating simultaneous n-point correlations of a
passive scalar advected by a random velocity field, with random forcing and finite molecular …

A note on the fluctuation of dissipative scale in turbulence

L Biferale - Physics of Fluids, 2008 - pubs.aip.org
We present an application of the multifractal formalism able to predict the whole shape of the
probability density function (pdf) of the dissipative scale, η⁠. We discuss both intense …

Development of turbulence in subsonic submerged jets

PS Landa, PVE McClintock - Physics reports, 2004 - Elsevier
The development of turbulence in subsonic submerged jets is reviewed. It is shown that the
turbulence results from a strong amplification of the weak input noise that is always present …
