Coherent structures in a turbulent environment.
A systematic method is proposed for the determination of the statistical properties of a field consisting of a coherent structure interacting with turbulent linear waves. The explicit expression of the generating functional of the correlations is obtained, performing the functional integration on a neighborhood in the function space around the soliton. The results show that the non-Gaussian flu...
متن کاملOn Coherent Structures of Turbulent Open-channel Flow Above a Rough Bed
Present study examines turbulent structures of a rough bed open-channel flow in the context of deterministic approach. Instantaneous velocity field is measured in different hydraulic conditions using two dimensional Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) in vertical plane and Stereoscopic PIV in horizontal plane. Different techniques and quantities such as swirl strength, two-point and cross-correlat...
متن کاملExact Coherent Structures in Turbulent Shear Flows
Exact coherent structures are three-dimensional, nonlinear traveling wave solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. These solutions are typically unstable from onset, yet they capture the basic statistical and structural features of low Reynolds number turbulent shear flows remarkably well. These exact coherent structures have now been found in all canonical shear flows: plane Couette, Poiseuil...
متن کاملCoherent Turbulent Structures in a Quasi-steady Spilling Breaker
In this paper, we analyze planar Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) data of a laboratory hydraulic jump to investigate the large-scale coherence in the turbulent breaker shear layer. Two-point spatial correlations are used at various spatial locations to qualitatively assess the shape of the coherent structures in the different flow regimes. The structures are found to be stretched parallel to th...
متن کاملExtraction of coherent structures in a rotating turbulent flow experiment.
The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT) are used to extract and study the dynamics of coherent structures in a turbulent rotating fluid. Three-dimensional turbulence is generated by strong pumping through tubes at the bottom of a rotating tank (48.4 cm high, 39.4 cm diameter). This flow evolves toward two-dimensional (2D) turbulence with increasing heig...
