Turbulent flows are characterized by the non-linear cascades of energy and other inviscid
invariants across a huge range of scales, from where they are injected to where they are …

The Lagrangian description of turbulence is characterized by a unique conceptual simplicity
and by an immediate connection with the physics of dispersion and mixing. In this article, we …

Mixing of initially distinct substances plays an important role in our daily lives as well as in
ecological and technological worlds. From the continuum point of view, which we adopt …

Patchiness plays a fundamental role in phytoplankton ecology by dictating the rate at which
individual cells encounter each other and their predators. The distribution of motile …

Lagrangian turbulence lies at the core of numerous applied and fundamental problems
related to the physics of dispersion and mixing in engineering, biofluids, the atmosphere …

The large-scale structure of many turbulent flows encountered in practical situations such as
aeronautics, industry, meteorology is nowadays successfully computed using the …

Space-time correlation is a staple method for investigating the dynamic coupling of spatial
and temporal scales of motion in turbulent flows. In this article, we review the space-time …

Fluid dynamics turbulence refers to the chaotic and unpredictable dynamics of flows.
Despite the fact that the equations governing the motion of fluids are known since more than …

We present the results of direct numerical simulations of heavy particle transport in
homogeneous, isotropic, fully developed turbulence, up to resolution decrease with St. Two …

One-point statistics of velocity gradients and Eulerian and Lagrangian accelerations are
studied by analysing the data from high-resolution direct numerical simulations (DNS) of …
