Finite-dimensionality of 2-D micropolar fluid flow with periodic boundary conditions

Piotr Szopa (2007)

Applicationes Mathematicae

This paper is devoted to proving the finite-dimensionality of a two-dimensional micropolar fluid flow with periodic boundary conditions. We define the notions of determining modes and nodes and estimate their number. We check how the distribution of the forces and moments through modes influences the estimate of the number of determining modes. We also estimate the dimension of the global attractor. Finally, we compare our results with analogous results for the Navier-Stokes equation.

Recent developments on wall-bounded turbulence.

Javier Jiménez (2007)

RACSAM

The study of turbulence near walls has experienced a renaissance in the last decade, in part because of the availability of high-quality numerical simulations. The viscous and buffer layers over smooth walls are now fairly well understood. They are essentially independent of the outer flow, and there is a family of numerically-exact nonlinear structures that predict well many of the best-known characteristics of the wall layer, such as the intensity and the spectra of the velocity fluctuations,...

Some results on the Navier-Stokes equations in connection with the statistical theory of stationary turbulence

Ricardo M. S. Rosa (2002)

Applications of Mathematics

Some rigorous results connected with the conventional statistical theory of turbulence in both the two- and three-dimensional cases are discussed. Such results are based on the concept of stationary statistical solution, related to the notion of ensemble average for turbulence in statistical equilibrium, and concern, in particular, the mean kinetic energy and enstrophy fluxes and their corresponding cascades. Some of the results are developed here in the case of nonsmooth boundaries and a less regular...
