Correlation between Buoyancy Flux, Dissipation and Potential Vorticity in Rotating Stratified Turbulence
Duane Rosenberg, Annick Pouquet & Raffaele Marino
We study in this paper the correlation between the buoyancy flux, the efficiency of energy dissipation and the linear and nonlinear components of potential vorticity, PV, a point-wise invariant (...)

Mixing and unmixing induced by active camphor particles
Clément Gouiller, Florence Raynal, Laurent Maquet, Mickaël Bourgoin, Cécile Cottin-Bizonne, Romain Volk & Christophe Ybert
Small colloidal floaters are poured at the air-water interface of a tank stirred by many camphor swimmers. The system rapidly reaches a statistically stationary state resulting in the competition (...)

Local and global properties of energy transfer in models of plasma turbulence
Christian L. Vásconez, D. Perrone, R. Marino, D. Laveder, F. Valentini, S. Servidio, P. Mininni & L. Sorriso-Valvo
The nature of the turbulent energy transfer rate is studied using direct numerical simulations of weakly collisional space plasmas. This is done comparing results obtained from hybrid (...)

Corrosion of T91 and pure iron in flowing and static Pb-Bi alloy between 450 °C and 540 °C : experiments, modelling and mechanism
L. Martinelli, K. Ginestar, V. Botton,C. Delisle & F. Balbaud-Célérier
T91 (Fe-9Cr steel) and pure iron were corroded in pure dissolution domain in liquid lead bismuth eutectic (LBE) from 450 to 540 °C in static and in dynamic LBE flow. The modelling showed that (...)

A phenomenological and multiscale modeling of arterial growth and remodeling under endofibrosis
Jérôme Jansen, Xavier Escriva, Fabien Godeferd & Patrick Feugier
High level endurance sports, like biking, may lead to a vascular pathology called endofibrosis. Its symptoms are an arterial wall thickening and a reduction of the artery lumen calibre. Cyclists (...)

Oblique and streamwise vortex paths in a plane Couette flow using a RNL system
Frédéric Alizard
This paper revisits oblique wave and streamwise vortex scenarios in a plane Couette flow using restricted nonlinear simulations, where only a single Fourier mode for perturbation is retained. It (...)

Signature and energetics of internal gravity waves in stratified turbulence
Andrea Maffioli, Alexandre Delache & Fabien Godeferd
Internal gravity waves propagating within homogeneous stratified turbulence are the subject of the present study. A spatiotemporal analysis is carried out on the results of direct numerical (...)

The role of velocity derivative skewness in understanding non-equilibrium turbulence
Feng Liu, Le Fang & Liang Shao
The turbulence governed by the Navier–Stokes equation is paramount in many physical processes. However, it has been considered as a challenging problem due to its inherent nonlinearity, (...)
