The Proper Orthogonal Decomposition in the Analysis of Turbulent Flows

TL;DR: The Navier-Stokes equations are well-known to be a good model for turbulence as discussed by the authors, and the results of well over a century of increasingly sophisticated experiments are available at our disposal.
Book

Turbulence, Coherent Structures, Dynamical Systems and Symmetry

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of rigor properties of low-dimensional models and their applications in the field of fluid mechanics. But they do not consider the effects of random perturbation on models.

An equilibrium theory of insular zoogeography

TL;DR: As the area of sampling A increases in a ecologically uniform area, the number of plant and animal species s increases in an approximately logarithmic manner, or s = bAk, (1) where k < 1, as shown most recently in in the detailed analysis of Preston (1962).

Symmetric Ciphers Based on Two-Dimensional Chaotic Maps

TL;DR: Methods are shown how to adapt invertible two-dimensional chaotic maps on a torus or on a square to create new symmetric block encryption schemes to encrypt an N×N image.
