  • Singularities: Formation, Structure, and Propagation

    by J. Eggers, M. A. Fontelos ...
    Series Book 53 - Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics
    Many key phenomena in physics and engineering are described as singularities in the solutions to the differential equations describing them. Examples covered thoroughly in this book include the formation of drops and bubbles, the propagation of a crack and the formation of a shock in a gas. Aimed at a broad audience, this book provides the mathematical tools for understanding singularities and ... Read more

  • Turbulence and Self-Organization

    Modeling Astrophysical Objects

    by Mikhail Ya Marov, Aleksander V. Kolesnichenko ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The book deals with the development of continual models of turbulent natural media. Such models serve as a ground for the statement and numerical evaluation of the key problems of the structure and evolution of the numerous astrophysical and geophysical objects. The processes of ordering (self-organization) in an originally chaotic turbulent medium are addressed and treated in detail with the use ... Read more

  • Magnetoconvection

    by N. O. Weiss, M. R. E. Proctor ...
    Series series Cambridge Monographs on Mechanics
    The last thirty years have seen great leaps forward in the subject of magnetoconvection. Computational techniques can now explain exotic nonlinear behaviour, transition to chaos and the formation of structures that can be observed on the surface of the Sun. Here, two leading experts present the current state of knowledge of the subject. They provide a mathematical and numerical treatment of the ... Read more

  • Wave Turbulence

    by Sergey Nazarenko ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Wave Turbulence refers to the statistical theory of weakly nonlinear dispersive waves. There is a wide and growing spectrum of physical applications, ranging from sea waves, to plasma waves, to superfluid turbulence, to nonlinear optics and Bose-Einstein condensates. Beyond the fundamentals the book thus also covers new developments such as the interaction of random waves with coherent structures ... Read more

  • Chaotic Flows

    Correlation Effects, Transport, and Structures

    by Oleg G. Bakunin ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The book introduces readers to and summarizes the current ideas and theories about the basic mechanisms for transport in chaotic flows. Typically no single paradigmatic approach exists as this topic is relevant for fields as diverse as plasma physics, geophysical flows and various branches of engineering. Accordingly, the dispersion of matter in chaotic or turbulent flows is analyzed from ... Read more

  • Mathematics of Two-Dimensional Turbulence

    by Sergei Kuksin, Armen Shirikyan ...
    Series Book 194 - Cambridge Tracts in Mathematics
    This book is dedicated to the mathematical study of two-dimensional statistical hydrodynamics and turbulence, described by the 2D Navier–Stokes system with a random force. The authors' main goal is to justify the statistical properties of a fluid's velocity field u(t,x) that physicists assume in their work. They rigorously prove that u(t,x) converges, as time grows, to a statistical equilibrium, ... Read more
