Path integral description and direct interaction approximation for elastic plate turbulence
arXiv:2207.04326 · doi:10.1016/j.chaos.2022.112911
Abstract
In this work, we apply the Martin-Siggia-Rose path integral formalism to the equations of a thin elastic plate. Using a diagrammatic technique, we obtain the direct interaction approximation (DIA) equations to describe the evolutions of the correlation function and the response function of the fields. Consistent with previous results, we show that DIA equations for elastic plates can be derived from a non-markovian stochastic process and that in the weakly nonlinear limit, the DIA equations lead to the kinetic equation of wave turbulence theory. We expect that this approach will allow a better understanding of the statistical properties of wave turbulence and that DIA equations can open new avenues for understanding the breakdown of weakly nonlinear turbulence for elastic plates.
