Lagrangian Coherent Structures in a Nonlinear Dynamo
Turbulence and chaos play a fundamental role in stellar convective zones through the transport of particles, energy and momentum, and in fast dynamos, through the stretching, twisting and folding of magnetic flux tubes. A particularly revealing way to describe turbulent motions is through the analysis of Lagrangian coherent structures (LCS), which are material lines or surfaces that act as tran...
متن کاملLagrangian Coherent Structures
Mounting evidence suggests that fluid advection can effectively be studied by considering special material surfaces, which are referred to here as Lagrangian coherent structures (LCSs). What makes these material surfaces special is their distinguished attracting or repelling nature. Notably, LCS are often locally the most strongly attracting or repellingmaterial surfaces in theflow, and as such...
متن کاملDynamically Consistent Lagrangian Coherent Structures
In this paper, we compute coherent structures based on radar data collected in Monterey Bay during August 2001 and August 2003. The Lagrangian structures are extracted from a finitetime Lyapunov exponent field. In contrast with earlier approaches, the integration time used in computing the Lyapunov exponents is not constant but adapts to the timescales of the different flow regimes present in t...
متن کاملTracking Attracting Lagrangian Coherent Structures in Flows
This paper presents a collaborative control strategy designed to enable a team of robots to track attracting Lagrangian coherent structures (LCS) and unstable manifolds in two-dimensional flows. Tracking LCS in dynamical systems is important for many applications such as planning energy optimal paths in the ocean and predicting various physical and biological processes in the ocean. Similar to ...
متن کاملLagrangian coherent structures in n-dimensional systems
Numerical simulations and experimental observations reveal that unsteady fluid systems can be divided into regions of qualitatively different dynamics. The key to understanding transport and stirring is to identify the dynamic boundaries between these almost-invariant regions. Recently, ridges in finite-time Lyapunov exponent fields have been used to define such hyperbolic, almost material, Lag...
