Journal ArticleDOI

Heavy particle concentration in turbulence at dissipative and inertial scales.

TL;DR: Spatial distributions of heavy particles suspended in an incompressible isotropic and homogeneous turbulent flow are investigated by means of high resolution direct numerical simulations and it is shown that particles form fractal clusters with properties independent of the Reynolds number.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generalized lattice Boltzmann method with multirange pseudopotential

TL;DR: The theoretical foundations of the Shan-Chen methodology for the lattice Boltzmann method are clarified and its applicability and flexibility to the simulation of multiphase flows to density ratios up to O(100).
Journal ArticleDOI

Anisotropy in turbulent flows and in turbulent transport

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a detailed description of the new tools that allow effective data analysis and systematic theoretical studies such as to separate isotropic from anisotropic aspects of turbulent statistical fluctuations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cascades and transitions in turbulent flows

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a critical summary of recent work on turbulent flows from a unified point of view and present a classification of all known transfer mechanisms, including direct and inverse energy cascades.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shell models of energy cascade in turbulence

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the most important theoretical and numerical results obtained in the realm of shell models for the energy-turbulent cascade and present a multifractal-based description of multiscale and multitime correlation functions in turbulence.
