Turbulent mixing: A perspective [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018
Mixing of initially distinct substances plays an important role in our daily lives as well as in ecological and technological worlds. From the continuum point of view, which we adopt here, mixing is complete when the substances come together across smallest flow scales determined in part by molecular mechanisms, but important stages of the process ...

Microfluidic and Turbulent Mixing for mRNA LNP Vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesPharmaceutics
Using lipid nanocarriers to deliver the mRNA of a specific antigen to immune cells is a powerful innovative approach to rapidly develop new safe and effective vaccines.

Computer design of microfluidic mixers for protein/RNA folding studies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Kinetic studies of biological macromolecules increasingly use microfluidic mixers to initiate and monitor reaction progress. A motivation for using microfluidic mixers is to reduce sample consumption and decrease mixing time to microseconds.

Mixing and Phytoplankton Growth in an Upwelling System

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Previous studies focused on understanding the role of physical drivers on phytoplankton bloom formation mainly used indirect estimates of turbulent mixing.

Turbulence, Fractals, and Mixing [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
© 1997 California Institute of Technology. Presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute series, "Mixing: Chaos and Turbulence," Cargkse (Corsica, France), 7-20 July 1996. The work at Caltech described here is part of a larger effort to investigate turbulent mixing and chemical reactions in free-shear flows, initially supported by AFOSR and GRI and,

Turbulent mixing in a precessing sphere [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Fluids, 2013
By numerically simulating turbulent flows at high Reynolds numbers in a precessing sphere, we propose a method to enhance the mixing of a fluid confined within a smooth cavity by its rotational motion alone. To precisely evaluate the mixing efficiency, we extend the quantification method proposed by Danckwerts [“The definition and measurement of some ...

On turbulent mixing [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1984
Several authors (myself included!) have suggested that turbulent mixing takes place in some, if not all, stars, and in particular that such mixing can explain the low solar neutrino flux. This turbulence is thought to be caused by differential rotation produced by braking due to angular momentum loss in a stellar wind, and/or to the effect of ...

Symmetry and Scaling of Turbulent Mixing [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 1996
The stationary condition (Hopf equation) for the ($n$+1) point correlation function of a passive scalar advected by turbulent flow is argued to have an approximate $SL(n, R)$ symmetry which provides a starting point for the perturbative treatment of less symmetric terms.

Mixing and Isosurface Geometry in Turbulent Transverse Jets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Mixing and the geometry of jet-fluid-concentration level sets in turbulent transverse jets were experimentally studied. Jet-fluid concentration fields were measured with laser-induced fluorescence and digital imaging techniques for Reynolds numbers ...

Direct Estimates of Turbulent Mixing in the Indonesian Archipelago and Its Role in the Transformation of the Indonesian Throughflow Waters

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Turbulent mixing enhanced in the Indonesian Archipelago (IA) is thought to influence the coupled ocean‐climate system through sea surface temperature cooling and water‐mass transformation.
