Kinematic simulations are non-Markovian Lagrangian models of dispersion that incorporate
turbulentlike flow structure. We investigate the conditions for two-particle dispersion to be …

A wide range of relative two-particle dispersion statistics from the Lagrangian Kinematic
Simulation (KS) model, which contains turbulent-like flow structures, compares well with …

We discuss a series of numerical experiments on the dispersion of neutrally buoyant
particles in two-dimensional turbulent flows. The topology of two-dimensional turbulence is …

The Lagrangian description of turbulence is characterized by a unique conceptual simplicity
and by an immediate connection with the physics of dispersion and mixing. In this article, we …

The statistical geometry of dispersing Lagrangian clusters of four particles (tetrahedra) is
studied by means of high-resolution direct numerical simulations of three-dimensional …

We have performed numerical simulations of inertial particles in random model flows in the
white-noise limit (at zero Kubo number, Ku= 0) and at finite Kubo numbers. Our results for …

Anisotropic particles are common in many industrial and natural turbulent flows. When these
particles are small and neutrally buoyant, they follow Lagrangian trajectories while …

The theory of dispersion of discrete particles by continuous turbulent motions is first
expressed in a 3‐D formalism, as a synthesis between the 1‐D Tchen's theory of dispersion …

Turbulent flows disperse Lagrangian particles resulting in the growth of pairwise separations
and, for sets of three or more particles, in a nontrivial dynamics of their configuration. The …

We develop a Lagrangian model of both one-particleIn this paper 'particle'and 'fluid
element'are synonymous. and two-particle turbulent diffusion in high Reynolds number and …
