Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking for Extreme Vorticity and Strain in the 3D Navier-Stokes Equations

Timo Schorlepp, Tobias Grafke, Sandra May +1

We investigate the spatio-temporal structure of the most likely configurations realising extremely high vorticity or strain in the stochastically forced 3D incompressible Navier-St…

Explicit construction of joint multipoint statistics in complex systems

J. Friedrich, J. Peinke, A. Pumir +1

Complex systems often involve random fluctuations for which self-similar properties in space and time play an important role. Fractional Brownian motions, characterized by a single…

Multi-level stochastic refinement for complex time series and fields: A Data-Driven Approach

M. Sinhuber, J. Friedrich, R. Grauer +1

Spatio-temporally extended nonlinear systems often exhibit a remarkable complexity in space and time. In many cases, extensive datasets of such systems are difficult to obtain, yet…

Multiscale velocity correlations in turbulence and Burgers turbulence: Fusion rules, Markov processes in scale, and multifractal predictions

Jan Friedrich, Georgios Margazoglou, Luca Biferale +1

We compare different approaches towards an effective description of multi-scale velocity field correlations in turbulence. Predictions made by the operator product expansion, the s…

The instanton method and its numerical implementation in fluid mechanics

Tobias Grafke, Rainer Grauer, Tobias Schäfer

A precise characterization of structures occurring in turbulent fluid flows at high Reynolds numbers is one of the last open problems of classical physics. In this review we discus…

Irreversibility and small-scale generation in 3D turbulent flows

Alain Pumir, Haitao Xu, Rainer Grauer +1

In three-dimensional turbulent flows energy is supplied at large scales and cascades down to the smallest scales where viscosity dominates. The flux of energy through scales implie…
