Universal Statistical Properties of Inertial-particle Trajectories in Three-dimensional, Homogeneous, Isotropic, Fluid Turbulence
Akshay Bhatnagar, Anupam Gupta, Dhrubaditya Mitra +2
We uncover universal statistical properties of the trajectories of heavy inertial particles in three-dimensional, statistically steady, homogeneous, and isotropic turbulent flows b…
Clustering of vertically constrained passive particles in homogeneous, isotropic turbulence
Massimo De Pietro, Michel A. T. van Hinsberg, Luca Biferale +3
We analyze the dynamics of small particles vertically confined, by means of a linear restoring force, to move within a horizontal fluid slab in a three-dimensional (3D) homogeneous…
Internal dynamics and activated processes in Soft-Glassy materials
R. Benzi, M. Sbragaglia, A. Scagliarini +4
Plastic rearrangements play a crucial role in the characterization of soft-glassy materials, such as emulsions and foams. Based on numerical simulations of soft-glassy systems, we…
Statistical Properties of the Intrinsic Geometry of Heavy-particle Trajectories in Two-dimensional, Homogeneous, Isotropic Turbulence
Anupam Gupta, Dhrubaditya Mitra, Prasad Perlekar +1
We obtain, by extensive direct numerical simulations, trajectories of heavy inertial particles in two-dimensional, statistically steady, homogeneous, and isotropic turbulent flows,…
Direct evidence of plastic events and dynamic heterogeneities in soft-glasses
R. Benzi, M. Sbragaglia, P. Perlekar +3
By using fluid-kinetic simulations of confined and concentrated emulsion droplets, we investigate the nature of space non-homogeneity in soft-glassy dynamics and provide quantitati…
