Singular instabilities (collapses) and multifractality of structure functions in turbulence
نویسنده
چکیده
It is argued that the multifractality of higher order structure functions arises as a result of local singular instabilities (collapses) in 3D-turbulence.The modified Landau approach (with poles) is used for studying supercritical instability in this case. For the simplest situation (pole of order two), the asymptotic behavior of the structure functions is investigated. The arguments are supported by comparison with experimental data from laboratory and geophysical

Collapse Turbulence in Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation
Abstract. We consider a nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) with dissipation and forcing in critical dimension. Without both linear and nonlinear dissipation NLS results in a flnite-time singularity (collapse) for any initial conditions. Dissipation ensures collapse regularization. If dissipation is small then multiple near-singular collapses are randomly distributed in space and time forming ...
متن کاملScaling Relations for Turbulence in Multiphase Interstellar Medium
We simulate the dynamics of phase transition in radiatively cooling interstellar gas in three dimensions with a high order hydrodynamic method. We have previously shown (Kritsuk & Norman 2002a) in simulations with non-equilibrium initial conditions that thermal instability induces supersonic turbulence as a by-product of the phase transition which leads to formation of multiphase medium. We rel...
متن کاملScaling Relations for Turbulence in the Multiphase Interstellar Medium
We employ a generalization of the She & Lévêque model to study velocity scaling relations based on our simulations of thermal instability–induced turbulence. Being a by-product of the interstellar phase transition, such multiphase turbulence tends to be more intermittent than compressible isothermal turbulence. Due to radiative cooling, which promotes nonlinear instabilities in supersonic flows...
متن کاملThe Universality of Dynamic Multiscaling in Homogeneous, Isotropic Turbulence
We systematise the study of dynamic multiscaling of time-dependent structure functions in different models of passive-scalar and fluid turbulence. We show that, by suitably normalising these structure functions, we can eliminate their dependence on the origin of time at which we start our measurements and that these normalised structure functions yield the same linear bridge relations that rela...

: Existence of singular points inside the solution domain or on its boundary deteriorates the accuracy and convergence rate of numerical methods. This phenomenon usually happens due to discontinuities in the boundary conditions or abrupt changes in the domain shape. This study has focused on the solution of singular plate problems using the exponential basis functions method. In this method, un...
