Recurrent flow patterns as a basis for turbulence: predicting statistics from structures

Posted by dbos Harvard

Kavli Affiliate: Michael P. Brenner | First 5 Authors: Jacob Page, Peter Norgaard, Michael P. Brenner, Rich R. Kerswell, | Summary: A dynamical systems approach to turbulence envisions the flow as a trajectory through a high-dimensional state space transiently visiting the neighbourhoods of unstable simple invariant solutions (E. Hopf, Commun. Appl. Maths 1, 303, 1948). […]
