Atmospheric Turbulence Effects on Wind-Turbine Wakes: An LES Study
A numerical study of atmospheric turbulence effects on wind-turbine wakes is presented. Large-eddy simulations of neutrally-stratified atmospheric boundary layer flows through stand-alone wind turbines were performed over homogeneous flat surfaces with ...

Intense Reynolds-stress events in turbulent ducts
Abstract The aim of the present work is to investigate the role of intense Reynolds shear-stress events in the generation of the secondary flow in turbulent ducts. We consider the connected regions of flow where the product of the instantaneous fluctuations of two velocity components is higher than a threshold based on the long-time turbulence ...

Optical intensity interferometry through atmospheric turbulence [PDF]
Conventional ground-based astronomical observations suffer from image distortion due to atmospheric turbulence. This can be minimized by choosing suitable geographic locations or adaptive optical techniques, and avoided altogether by using orbital platforms outside the atmosphere.

Beam Properties of a Partially Coherent Beam Propagating Horizontally in Atmospheric Turbulence
This study explored the impact of atmospheric turbulence on partially coherent light propagation. Atmospheric turbulence causes random modulation of the intensity and phase of light, resulting in a speckle pattern in the far field.

Turbulence and Intense Sound Fields [PDF]
A brief review is given of present experimental and theoretical knowledge of phenomena involving interaction of strong sound fields and turbulence. Consideration is given to the scattering of sound and shock waves by turbulence, the generation of noise by turbulence, and the effect of intense noise fields or strong resonances on the evolution of a ...

Nonlocal amplification of intense vorticity in turbulent flows [PDF]
The nonlinear and nonlocal coupling of vorticity and strain-rate constitutes a major hindrance in understanding the self-amplification of velocity gradients in turbulent fluid flows. Utilizing highly-resolved direct numerical simulations of isotropic turbulence in periodic domains of up to $12288^3$ grid points, and Taylor-scale Reynolds number $R_λ ...

Nonstationary distributions of wave intensities in wave turbulence [PDF]
We obtain a general solution for the probability density function of wave intensities in non-stationary Wave Turbulence. The solution is expressed in terms of the wave action spectrum evolving according the the wave-kinetic equation. We establish that, in absence of wave breaking, the wave statistics asymptotes to a Gaussian distribution in forced ...
