VS Dharodi, B Patel, A Das - Journal of Plasma Physics, 2022 - cambridge.org
Kelvin–Helmholtz (KH) instability plays a significant role in transport and mixing in various
media such as hydrodynamic fluids, plasmas, geophysical flows and astrophysical …

Flow structures govern particle collisions in turbulence

JR Picardo, L Agasthya, R Govindarajan, SS Ray - Physical Review Fluids, 2019 - APS
The role of the spatial structure of a turbulent flow in enhancing particle collision rates in
suspensions is an open question. We show and quantify, as a function of particle inertia, the …

On the formation of thermal caustics in turbulent particle-laden flows

HR Zandi Pour, M Iovieno - Physics of Fluids, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
This study investigates the development of thermal caustics within particle-laden turbulent
flows, a concept recently proposed to elucidate the non-smooth behavior of particle …

Mass crystals in vorticity crystals

JR Angilella - Physics of Fluids, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
We study the motion of tiny heavy inertial particles advected by a two-dimensional inviscid
fluid flow, composed of N identical point vortices regularly placed on a ring and rotating as a …

Cloud Microatlas

R Govindarajan, S Ravichandran - Resonance, 2017 - Springer
We begin by outlining the life cycle of a tall cloud, and then briefly discuss cloud systems.
We choose one aspect of this life cycle, namely, the rapid growth of water droplets in icefree …

Survival of aerosol particles in a puff with spatially inhomogeneous size spectrum

S Anand, T Sarkar, YS Mayya - Journal of aerosol science, 2018 - Elsevier
Aerosol particles released from emission sources undergo various atmospheric and aerosol
processes before they become a part of the background aerosols. Coagulation and …
