چکیده

It is argued that the method used by Cleve et al. [Phys. Rev. E 69, 066316 (2004)], to determine the intermittency exponent mu is biased at moderate Reynolds numbers R lambda. Thus, the claimed dependence of mu upon (R lambda) is questionable. Other determinations give a constant value for mu.

Intermittency exponent of the turbulent energy cascade.

We consider the turbulent energy dissipation from one-dimensional records in experiments using air and gaseous helium at cryogenic temperatures, and obtain the intermittency exponent via the two-point correlation function of the energy dissipation. The air data are obtained in a number of flows in a wind tunnel and the atmospheric boundary layer at a height of about 35 m above the ground. The h...

Dynamical scaling and intermittency in shell models of turbulence.

We introduce a model for the turbulent energy cascade aimed at studying the effect of dynamical scaling on intermittency. In particular, we show that by slowing down the energy-transfer mechanism for fixed energy flux, intermittency decreases and eventually disappears. This result supports the conjecture that intermittency can be observed only if energy is flowing towards faster and faster scal...

Multifractal Fluctuations in Finance

We consider the structure functions S (q) (τ), i.e. the moments of order q of the increments X(t + τ) − X(t) of the Foreign Exchange rate X(t) which give clear evidence of scaling (S (q) (τ) ∝ τ ζ(q)). We demonstrate that the nonlinearity of the observed scaling exponent ζ(q) is incompatible with monofractal additive stochastic models usually introduced in finance: Brownian motion, Levy process...

Synchronization of chaos in fully developed turbulence.

We investigate chaos synchronization of small-scale motions in the three-dimensional turbulent energy cascade, via pseudospectral simulations of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The modes of the turbulent velocity field below about 20 Kolmogorov dissipation lengths are found to be slaved to the chaotic dynamics of larger-scale modes. The dynamics of all dissipation-range modes can be...
