Journal ArticleDOI
Stretched vortices - the sinews of turbulence; large-Reynolds-number asymptotics
TL;DR: In this article, a large-Reynolds number asymptotic theory is presented for the problem of a vortex tube of finite circulation subjected to uniform non-axisymmetric irrotational strain, and aligned along an axis of positive rate of strain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal Intermittency in the Energy Cascade Process and Local Lyapunov Analysis in Fully-Developed Model Turbulence
Koji Ohkitani,Michio Yamada +1 more
TL;DR: The processus de cascade d'energie est etudie numeriquement sur un modele scalaire de la turbulence tridimensionnelle entierement developpee as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lyapunov Spectrum of a Chaotic Model of Three-Dimensional Turbulence
Michio Yamada,Koji Ohkitani +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a model equation of fully developed three-dimensional turbulence is proposed which exhibits the Kolmogorov's similarity law in its chaotic state, and the structure of the chaotic attractor is investigated by examining the Lyapunov spectrum for several values of viscosity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inviscid and inviscid-limit behavior of a surface quasigeostrophic flow
Koji Ohkitani,Michio Yamada +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the growth of the gradient of a scalar temperature in a quasigeostrophic flow is studied numerically in detail, and the critical time at which the temperature gradient attains the first local maximum is found to depend double logarithmically on the Reynolds number, suggesting the global regularity of the inviscid flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Triad interactions in a forced turbulence
Koji Ohkitani,Shigeo Kida +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the data of a direct numerical simulation of a forced incompressible isotropic turbulence at a high Reynolds number (Rλ≊180) is made to investigate the interaction among three Fourier modes of wave numbers that form a triangle.
