We study Lagrangian trajectories and scalar transport statistics in decaying Burgers turbulence. We choose velocity fields, solutions of the inviscid Burgers equation, whose probability distributions are specified by Kida’s statistics. They are time-correlated, not time-reversal invariant and not Gaussian. We discuss in some details the effect of shocks on trajectories and transport equations. ...

We consider the viscous Burgers equation with a fractional nonlinear term as a model involving non-local nonlinearities in conservation laws, which, surprisingly, has an analytical solution obtained by a fractional extension of the Hopf-Cole transformation. We use this model and its inviscid limit to develop stable spectral and discontinuous Galerkin spectral element methods by employing the co...

Atomic misfit associated with a crystal dislocation is manifested by displacements of atoms from their positions in the perfect lattice. The discrete character of the crystal lattice and the nature of interatomic bonds distribute this misfit over the plane normal to the dislocation line. The Nye tensor, which describes the distribution of the resultant Burgers vector across a plane normal to th...

We study centred second-order in time and space discretizations of the inviscid Burgers equation. Although this equation in its continuum formulation supports non-smooth shock wave solutions, the discrete equation generically supports smooth solitary wave solutions. Using backward error analysis we derive the modified equation associated with the numerical scheme. We identify three different eq...

in this article we discussed the numerical solution of Burgers’ equation using multigrid method. We used implicit method for time discritization and Crank-Nicolson scheme for space discritization for fully discrete scheme. For improvement we used Multigrid method in fully discrete solution. And also Multigrid method accelerates convergence of a basics iterative method by global correction. Nume...

A 2 1 dimensional Burgers equation and a coupled higher dimensional Burgers system is studied by the singular manifold method. The Bäcklund transformations are obtained. Some interesting exact solutions are given. Then localized structures, such as dromion and solitoff, are found, and their interaction properties are numerically studied. The fusion phenomena of two dromions, a dromion and a sol...

Salas, Gomez and Heranańdez [A.Y. Salas S., C.A. Gomez S., J.E.C Hernańdez, New abundant solutions for tha Burgers equation, Computers and Mathematics with Applications 58 (2009) 514 -520] presented 70 ”new exact solutions” of a ”generalized version” of the Burgers equation. In this comment we show that all 70 solutions by these authors are not new and cannot be new. PACS: 02.30.Jr Ordinary dif...
