Preferential concentration of inertial particles in turbulence is studied numerically by
evaluating the Lagrangian compressibility of the particle velocity field using the “full …

It is shown by direct numerical simulation that the preferential concentration of small heavy
particles in homogeneous isotropic developed turbulence has a self-similar multi-scale …

Spatial distributions of heavy particles suspended in an incompressible isotropic and
homogeneous turbulent flow are investigated by means of high resolution direct numerical …

Particles with different density from the advecting turbulent fluids cluster due to the different
response of light and heavy particles to turbulent fluctuations. This study focuses on the …

Inertial particle data from three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of particle-laden
homogeneous isotropic turbulence at high Reynolds number are analysed using Voronoi …

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 relative dispersion of pairs of inertial point particles in incompressible, homogeneous
and isotropic three-dimensional turbulence is studied by means of direct numerical …

We present the results of direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent flows seeded with
millions of passive inertial particles. The maximum Reynolds number is Re λ∼ 200. We …

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 …
