Unified multifractal description of longitudinal and transverse intermittency in fully developed turbulence

Dhawal Buaria

Small-scale intermittency is a defining feature of fully developed fluid turbulence, marked by rare and extreme fluctuations of velocity increments and gradients that defy mean-fie…

Universality of extreme events in turbulent flows

Dhawal Buaria, Alain Pumir

The universality of small scales, a cornerstone of turbulence, has been nominally confirmed for low-order mean-field statistics, such as the energy spectrum. However, small scales…

Twisting vortex lines regularize Navier-Stokes turbulence

Dhawal Buaria, John M. Lawson, Michael Wilczek

Fluid flows are intrinsically characterized via the topology and dynamics of underlying vortex lines. Turbulence in common fluids like water and air, mathematically described by th…

Vorticity-strain rate dynamics and the smallest scales of turbulence

Dhawal Buaria, Alain Pumir

Building upon the intrinsic properties of Navier-Stokes dynamics, namely the prevalence of intense vortical structures and the interrelationship between vorticity and strain rate,…

Self-attenuation of extreme events in Navier-Stokes turbulence

Dhawal Buaria, Alain Pumir, Eberhard Bodenschatz

Turbulent fluid flows are ubiquitous in nature and technology, and are mathematically described by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations (INSE). A hallmark of turbulence is sp…

Vortex stretching and enstrophy production in high Reynolds number turbulence

Dhawal Buaria, Eberhard Bodenschatz, Alain Pumir

An essential ingredient of turbulent flows is the vortex stretching mechanism, which emanates from the non-linear interaction of vorticity and strain-rate tensor and leads to forma…
