Understanding inhomogeneous and anisotropic fluid flows requires mathematical and
computational tools that are tailored to such flows and distinct from methods used to …

This paper reviews results obtained using statistical state dynamics (SSD) that demonstrate
the benefits of adopting this perspective for understanding turbulence in wall-bounded shear …

In recent decades, great progress has been made in our understanding of zonal jets across
many subjects-atmospheric science, oceanography, planetary science, geophysical fluid …

Quasilinear theory is often utilized to approximate the dynamics of fluids exhibiting
significant interactions between mean flows and eddies. We present a generalization of …

Zonal flows are well known to arise spontaneously out of turbulence. We show that for
statistically averaged equations of the stochastically forced generalized Hasegawa-Mima …

The perspective of statistical state dynamics (SSD) has recently been applied to the study of
mechanisms underlying turbulence in a variety of physical systems. An SSD is a dynamical …

Emergence and Equilibration of Jets in Beta-Plane Turbulence: Applications of Stochastic
Structural Stability Theory in: Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences Volume 71 Issue 5 (2014) …

In geophysical and plasma contexts, zonal flows (ZFs) are well known to arise out of
turbulence. We elucidate the transition from homogeneous turbulence without ZFs to …

Measurements on plasma focus ion beams include various advanced techniques producing
a variety of data which has yet to produce benchmark numbers [A Bernard et al., J. Mosc …

A generalised quasilinear (GQL) approximation (Marston et al., Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 116,
2016, 104502) is applied to turbulent channel flow at is the friction Reynolds number), with …
