Description for Turbulence and Diffusion
Paperback. This book provides the first introduction to the multidisciplinary field of turbulent transport in complex systems. There is emphasis on the scaling approach as opposed to techniques based on the quantitative analysis of underlying transport equations. Series: Springer Series in Synergetics. Num Pages: 284 pages, 99 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 15. Weight in Grams: 439.
This book is intended to serve as an introduction to the multidisciplinary ?eld of anomalous diffusion in complex systems such as turbulent plasma, convective rolls, zonal ?ow systems, stochastic magnetic ?elds, etc. In spite of its great importance, turbulent transport has received comparatively little treatment in published mo- graphs. This book attempts a comprehensive description of the scaling approach to turbulent diffusion. From the methodological point of view, the book focuses on the general use of correlation estimates, quasilinear equations, and continuous time random walk - proach. I provide a detailed structure of some derivations when they may be useful ... Read more

Reviews for Turbulence and Diffusion
From the reviews: “The text is organized in four parts. … It provides a terse survey of the recent advances in the field of non-conventional approaches to turbulence modeling. The collection of topics in this book is very broad … . recommended for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students in theoretical physics and geophysical sciences. It can also be ...
