Turbulence and Self-Organization
Author: Mikhail Ya Marov
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9781461451549
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The book deals with the development of continual models of turbulent natural media. Such models serve as a ground for the statement and numerical evaluation of the key problems of the structure and evolution of the numerous astrophysical and geophysical objects. The processes of ordering (self-organization) in an originally chaotic turbulent medium are addressed and treated in detail with the use of irreversible thermodynamics and stochastic dynamics approaches which underlie the respective models. Different examples of ordering set up in the natural environment and outer space are brought and thoroughly discussed, the main focus being given to the protoplanetary discs formation and evolution.

What is fluid turbulence?
Author: Gert Naue
Publisher: TWENTYSIX
ISBN: 3740747056
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
This book presents an innovative wave structure theory of turbulence. The most important advancement is the provision of turbulence parameters of the optimal self-organization of turbulence from theoretical investigations via information entropy assessments. The new theoretical results are in very good agreement with the experimentally confirmed results of turbulent convection velocity fields at free and forced turbulence. In connection with the logarithmic wall law, it is shown that there is no viscous sublayer. The formulation of the oscillation problem of turbulence and the solution of boundary value tasks with coordinate systems adapted to the specific task are provided for many technically significant turbulent flows, including smooth and rough pipe flow, confusor and diffuser flow, swirl flow, stirrer flow, inlet flow, intermittency, wake flow and free jets. An epistemological component of the innovation is the representation of turbulence by con-travariant vector fields which are characterized by the stability of the turbulence structures at changed structural density. The turbulence structures act as active momentum transmitters of refracted monopoles, dipoles, tripoles and quadrupoles in the flow field. The dissipation mechanism with regard to the processes in turbulence structures is, for the first time, qualita-tively and quantitatively described. The transition from the contravariant turbulence velocity field to the covariant convection velocity field induce refraction and entanglement. The principles of turbulence act as fractal principle, reflection principle, entanglement principle, refractive principle and convolution principle. The wave structure theory of turbulence provides an arraying tool for further investigations into numerous open problems.

Self-Organization of Complex Structures
Author: Frank Schweitzer
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9789056990275
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 624
Book Description
During the past twenty years, a broad spectrum of theories and methods have been developed in physics, chemistry and molecular biology to explain structure formation in complex systems. These methods have been applied to many different fields such as economics, sociology and town planning, and this book reflects the interdisciplinary nature of complexity and self-organisation. The main focus is on the emergence of collective phenomena from individual or microscopic interactions. Presents a wide-ranging overview from fundamental aspects of the evolution of complexity, to applications in biology, ecology, sociology, economics, and urban structure formation.

The Theory of Homogeneous Turbulence
Author: G. K. Batchelor
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521041171
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
This is a reissue of Professor Batchelor's text on the theory of turbulent motion, which was first published by Cambridge Unviersity Press in 1953. It continues to be widely referred to in the professional literature of fluid mechanics, but has not been available for several years. This classic account includes an introduction to the study of homogeneous turbulence, including its mathematic representation and kinematics. Linear problems, such as the randomly-perturbed harmonic oscillator and turbulent flow through a wire gauze, are then treated. The author also presents the general dynamics of decay, universal equilibrium theory, and the decay of energy-containing eddies. There is a renewed interest in turbulent motion, which finds applications in atmospheric physics, fluid mechanics, astrophysics, and planetary science.
