Signatures of fractal clustering of aerosols advected under gravity
Rafael Dias Vilela, Tamás Tél, Alessandro P. S. de Moura +1
Aerosols under chaotic advection often approach a strange attractor. They move chaotically on this fractal set but, in the presence of gravity, they have a net vertical motion down…
Can aerosols be trapped in open flows?
Rafael D. Vilela, Adilson E. Motter
The fate of aerosols in open flows is relevant in a variety of physical contexts. Previous results are consistent with the assumption that such finite-size particles always escape…
Finite-size effects on open chaotic advection
Rafael Dias Vilela, Alessandro P. S. de Moura, Celso Grebogi
We study the effects of finite-sizeness on small, neutrally buoyant, spherical particles advected by open chaotic flows. We show that, when projected onto configuration space, the…
