2/3-order fractional and fractal derivatives modeling of turbulence
نویسنده
چکیده
This study makes the first attempt to use the 2/3-order fractional Laplacian modeling of Kolmogorov -5/3 scaling of fully developed turbulence and enhanced diffusing movements of random turbulent particles. A combined effect of inertial interactions induced diffusivity and the molecular Brownian diffusivity is considered the bi-fractal mechanism behind multifractal scaling of moderate Reynolds number turbulence in the inertial range of scales. Accordingly, a stochastic equation is proposed to describe turbulence intermittency. The 2/3-order fractional Laplacian representation is also used to model nonlinear interactions of fluctuating velocity components, and then we construct a fractional Reynolds equation, underlying fractal spacetime structures of Lévy 2/3 stable distribution and the Kolmogorov scaling at small scales. The new perspective of this study is that the fractional calculus is an effective approach modeling of chaotic fractal phenomena induced by nonlinear interactions.

Fractional and fractal derivatives modeling of turbulence
This study makes the first attempt to use the 2/3-order fractional Laplacian modeling of enhanced diffusing movements of random turbulent particle resulting from nonlinear inertial interactions. A combined effect of the inertial interactions and the molecule Brownian diffusivities is found to be the bi-fractal mechanism behind multifractal scaling in the inertial range of scales of moderate Rey...
متن کاملMultipole Moments of Fractal Distribution of Charges
Integrals and derivatives of fractional order have found many applications in recent studies in science. The interest in fractals and fractional analysis has been growing continually in the last few years. Fractional derivatives and integrals have numerous applications: kinetic theories [1, 2, 3]; statistical mechanics [4, 5, 6]; dynamics in complex media [7, 8, 9, 10, 11]; electrodynamics [12,...
متن کاملFractional Stability
A fractional generalization of variations is used to define a stability of non-integer order. Fractional variational derivatives are suggested to describe the properties of dynamical systems at fractional perturbations. We formulate stability with respect to motion changes at fractional changes of variables. Note that dynamical systems, which are unstable ”in sense of Lyapunov”, can be stable w...
متن کاملQuasi - geostrophic turbulence and generalized scale invariance , a theoretical reply
Lindborg et al. (2010) claim that the apparent spectrum power law E(k) ≈ k−3 on scales ≥ 600 km obtained with the help of commercial jetliner trajectory deviations (GASP and Mozaic databases) could not be brought into question (Lovejoy et al., 2009a), because this spectrum corresponds to “a well known theory of quasi-geostrophic turbulence developed by Charney (1971)”. Lindborg et al. (2010) al...
متن کاملRetarding Sub- and Accelerating Super-diffusion Governed by Distributed Order Fractional Diffusion Equations
We propose diffusion-like equations with time and space fractional derivatives of the distributed order for the kinetic description of anomalous diffusion and relaxation phenomena, whose diffusion exponent varies with time and which, correspondingly, can not be viewed as self-affine random processes possessing a unique Hurst exponent. We prove the positivity of the solutions of the proposed equ...
