Dynamical and statistical properties of large scales in turbulence
A. Alexakis, M. E. Brachet, S. Fauve +1
We present a review of results concerning the properties of scales larger than the forcing scale in turbulent flows. In three-dimensional turbulence, when the power driving the flo…
Intermittency in Shell Models of Turbulent Cascades: from Single-Branch to Multi-Branch
Flavio Tuteri, Sergio Chibbaro, Alexandros Alexakis
Intermittency is one of the central features of turbulent transfer: the multi-scale energy cascade is mediated by rare and intense fluctuations. We investigate this phenomenon in a…
Multi-branch Shell Models of Two-Dimensional Turbulence exhibit Dual Energy-Enstrophy Cascades
Flavio Tuteri, Sergio Chibbaro, Alexandros Alexakis
Classical shell models of turbulence do not display dual cascade - inverse of energy and direct of enstrophy - because they fail to reproduce the right thermal spectra. We propose…
Ensemble of Fixed Points in Multi-branch Shell Models of Turbulent Cascades
Flavio Tuteri, Sergio Chibbaro, Alexandros Alexakis
Stationary solutions of a shell model of turbulence defined on a dyadic tree topology are studied. Each node's amplitude is expressed as the product of amplitude multipliers associ…
Stability of vortex lattices in rotating flows
Julián Amette Estrada, Alexandros Alexakis, Marc E. Brachet +1
Vortex lattices -- highly ordered arrays of vortices -- are known to arise in quantum systems such as type II superconductors and Bose-Einstein condensates. More recently, similar…
Energy cascades in rotating and stratified turbulence in anisotropic domains
Alexandros Alexakis, Raffaele Marino, Pablo D. Mininni
The concept of inverse energy cascades has played a central role in the development of turbulence theory, with applications in two-dimensional and quasi-two-dimensional flows. We e…
