Information production in homogeneous isotropic turbulence [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2019 We study the Reynolds number scaling of the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy and attractor dimension for three dimensional homogeneous isotropic turbulence through the use of direct numerical simulation. To do so, we obtain Lyapunov spectra for a range of different Reynolds numbers by following the divergence of a large number of orthogonal fluid trajectories.

Comparison of modelling approaches for liquid fluidized beds
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract This study presents a comparison of three promising numerical models for the detailed simulation of liquid–solid fluidized bed. These models differ in their treatment of the solid phase, ranging from treating each particle individually to treating the collection of particles as a continuum.

An overview of Millionschikov's quasi-normality hypothesis applied to turbulence
International Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2014 In this paper, we examine the zero-fourth cumulant approximation that was applied to fluctuating velocity components of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence by M.D. Millionschikov.

Radar cross sections for mesospheric echoes at Jicamarca [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2009 Radar cross sections (RCS) of mesospheric layers at 50 MHz observed at Jicamarca, Peru, range from 10−18 to 10−16 m−1, three orders of magnitudes smaller than cross sections reported for polar mesospheric winter echoes during solar ...

Stability of Viscous Three‐Dimensional Stratified Couette Flow via Dispersion and Mixing
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article explores the stability of stratified Couette flow in the viscous 3d$3d$ Boussinesq equations. In this system, mixing effects arise from the shearing background, and gravity acts as a restoring force leading to dispersive internal gravity waves.

On isotropic turbulence in the dark fluid universe [PDF]
The European Physical Journal C, 2011 As first part of this work, experimental information about the decay of isotropic turbulence in ordinary hydrodynamics, u^2(t) proportional to t^{-6/5}, is used as input in FRW equations in order to investigate how an initial fraction f of turbulent kinetic energy in the cosmic fluid influences the cosmological development in the late, quintessence ...

Plasmakristall‐4 Experiment: 10 Years of Operation in Orbit
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plasmakristall‐4 (PK‐4) is a microgravity complex plasma laboratory operated for 10 years on board the International Space Station. Its main purpose is the particle‐resolved investigation of generic condensed matter phenomena using strongly coupled suspensions of microparticles immersed in low‐pressure gas‐discharge plasmas.

A review of turbulence measurements using ground-based wind lidars [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2013 A review of turbulence measurements using ground-based wind lidars is carried out. Works performed in the last 30 yr, i.e., from 1972–2012 are analyzed. More than 80% of the work has been carried out in the last 15 yr, i.e., from 1997–2012.

Coupling Fluid Neutrals to Gyrokinetic Plasma Dynamics for Edge and SOL Turbulence Simulations
Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate modeling of turbulent transport in magnetic confinement fusion devices requires extending first‐principles gyrokinetic simulations from the core to the edge and scrape‐off layer (SOL), where additional physics—particularly plasma–neutrals interactions—must be included.
