Simultaneous numerical simulation of direct and inverse cascades in wave turbulence.

چکیده
The results of the direct numerical simulation of isotropic turbulence of surface gravity waves in the framework of Hamiltonian equations are presented. For the first time, the simultaneous formation of both direct and inverse cascades has been observed in the framework of the primordial dynamical equations. At the same time, a strong long wave background has been developed. It has been shown that the Kolmogorov spectra obtained are very sensitive to the presence of this condensate. Such a situation has to be typical for experimental wave tanks, flumes, and small lakes.

epl draft Experimental study of the inverse cascade in gravity wave tur- bulence
We perform experiments to study the inverse cascade regime of gravity wave turbulence on the surface of a fluid. Surface waves are forced at an intermediate scale corresponding to the gravity-capillary wavelength. In response to this forcing, waves at larger scales are observed. The spectrum of their amplitudes exhibits a frequency-power law at high enough forcing. Both observations are ascribe...
متن کاملSpectral bifurcations in dispersive wave turbulence.
Dispersive wave turbulence is studied numerically for a class of one-dimensional nonlinear wave equations. Both deterministic and random (white noise in time) forcings are studied. Four distinct stable spectra are observed-the direct and inverse cascades of weak turbulence (WT) theory, thermal equilibrium, and a fourth spectrum (MMT; Majda, McLaughlin, Tabak). Each spectrum can describe long-ti...

I present a nonlinear differential equation model for the spectrum of Kelvin waves on a thin vortex filament. This model preserves the original scaling of the six-wave kinetic equation, its direct and inverse cascade solutions, as well as the thermodynamic equilibrium spectra. 1 Kelvulence: cascades and spectra. Kelvin waves propagating on a thin vortex filament were proposed by Svistunov to be...
