Lagrangian Coherent Structures near a Subtropical Jet Stream
Direct Lyapunov exponents and stability results are used to extract and distinguish Lagrangian coherent structures (LCS) from a three-dimensional atmospheric dataset generated from the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. The numerical model is centered at 19.788N, 155.558W, initialized from the Global Forecast System for the case of a subtropical jet stream near Hawaii on 12 December ...
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 کاملLagrangian 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 کاملComputational analysis of an aortic valve jet with Lagrangian coherent structures.
Important progress has been achieved in recent years in simulating the fluid-structure interaction around cardiac valves. An important step in making these computational tools useful to clinical practice is the development of postprocessing techniques to extract clinically relevant information from these simulations. This work focuses on flow through the aortic valve and illustrates how the com...
