Much progress has been made on two-dimensional turbulence, these last two decades, but
still, a number of fundamental questions remain unanswered. The objective of the present …

▪ Abstract This article reviews the transport properties of coherent vortices in rotating
barotropic flows. It is shown that vortices induce regular Lagrangian motion inside their …

This textbook presents a modern account of turbulence, one of the greatest challenges in
physics. The state-of-the-art is put into historical perspective five centuries after the first …

The preface begins' Turbulence is a dangerous topic...'—with which any aircraft operator will
agree—but goes on'... which is often at the origin of serious fights in the scientific meetings …

In this paper the qualitative properties of an inviscid, incompressible, two-dimensional fluid
are examined. Starting from the equations of motion we derive a series of equations that …

This book is a comprehensive and intensive monograph for scientists, engineers and
applied mathematicians, as well as graduate students in fluid dynamics. It starts with a brief …

This book presents an introduction to, and modern account of, magnetohydrodynamic
(MHD) turbulence, an active field both in general turbulence theory and in various areas of …

We introduce a Lagrangian definition for the boundaries of coherent structures in two-
dimensional turbulence. The boundaries are defined as material lines that are linearly stable …

A solution of decaying two-dimensional turbulence at large Reynolds number is analysed by
means of an automated vortex census. The census identifies the flow structures which …

Die Large Eddy Simulation (LES) ist eine Technik zur Berechnung turbulenter Strömungen,
die in den letzten Jahren mit zunehmenden Computerresourcen starke Verbreitung …
