The understanding of fluid turbulence has considerably progressed in recent years. The
application of the methods of statistical mechanics to the description of the motion of fluid …

We investigate the statistical properties of the kinetic is found to be plume dominated.
Moreover, the boundary-layer/plume contributions scale as those predicted by the GL …

The Lagrangian view of passive scalar turbulence has recently produced interesting results
and interpretations. Innovations in theory, experiments, simulations and data analysis of …

We explore very fine scales of scalar dissipation in turbulent mixing, below Kolmogorov and
around Batchelor scales, by performing direct numerical simulations at much finer grid …

We study the fine-scale statistics of temperature and its derivatives in turbulent Rayleigh–
Bénard convection. Direct numerical simulations are carried out in a cylindrical cell with unit …

We investigate fluctuations of the velocity and temperature fields in two-dimensional (2D)
Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection by means of direct numerical simulations (DNS) over the …

In this study, direct numerical simulations and high-resolved large eddy simulations of
turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection were conducted with a fluid of Prandtl number Pr …

Variation of the statistical properties of an incompressible velocity, passive vector and
passive scalar in isotropic turbulence was studied using direct numerical simulation. The …

We present direct numerical simulations of the mixing of the passive scalar at modest Taylor
microscale (10⩽ R λ⩽ 42) and Schmidt numbers larger than unity (2⩽ Sc⩽ 32)⁠. The …

Statistical characteristics of a passive scalar advected by a turbulent velocity field are
considered in the decay problem with a low scalar diffusivity κ (large Prandtl number v/κ …
