A review of classical percolation theory is presented, with an emphasis on novel
applications to statistical topography, turbulent diffusion, and heterogeneous media …

Chaotic transport in a laminar fluid flow in a rotating annulus is studied experimentally by
tracking large numbers of tracer particles for long times. Sticking and unsticking of particles …

Anomalous diffusion of a gold nanocrystal Au 140, adsorbed on the basal plane of graphite,
exhibiting Lévy-type power-law flight-length and sticking-time distributions, is predicted …

Realistic simulation of nearshore (from the shoreline to approximately 10‐km offshore)
Lagrangian material transport is required for physical, biological, and ecological …

Long-term particle tracking is used to study chaotic transport experimentally in laminar,
chaotic, and turbulent flows in an annular tank that rotates sufficiently rapidly to insure two …

Even though the first theoretical example of chaotic advection was a three-dimensional flow
(Hénon 1966), the number of theoretical studies addressing chaos and mixing in three …

Most chaotic mixing experiments have been restricted to two-dimensional, time-periodic
flows, and this has shaped advances in theory as well. A prototypical, bounded, three …

Recent efforts in the time series analysis of nonlinear data have been focused upon the
search for low-dimensional chaos in a wide variety of physical systems, both driven …

Application of dynamical systems tools has recently revealed in surface ocean currents
produced by a Hybrid-Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) simulation the presence of a …

We address in this paper the planetary basin modes and their possible impact on the
circulation of Black Sea. These oscillations could become important in semi-enclosed seas …
