Turbulence can occur anywhere including our human body, some phenomenon describe it well. One of them is Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm. Therefore, as an illustration in this article, wavelet analysis of electrocardiographic (ECG) signal of a subject is performed to study the effect of complex phenomenon turbulence in human body part. This article deals with different perspective of turbulence, main emphasis is on wavelet analysis. Therefore, different wavelet family members are employed to get various views of analysis at different decomposition levels. Turbulent flows are generally modeled with the help of Navier-Stokes equation. Different numerical techniques for solving Navier-Stokes equations using adaptive wavelet bases are also pondered.

Research on the abstract properties of the Navier–Stokes equations in three dimensions has cast a new light on the time-asymptotic approximate solutions of those equations. Here heuristic arguments, based on the rigorous results of that research, are used to show the intimate relationship between the sufficient number of degrees of freedom describing fluid flow and the bound on the fractal dimension of the Navier–Stokes attractor. In particular it is demonstrated how the conventional estimate of the number of degrees of freedom, based on purely physical and dimensional arguments, can be obtained from the properties of the Navier–Stokes equation. Also the Reynolds-number dependence of the sufficient number of degrees of freedom and of the dimension of the attractor in function space is elucidated.

The first analysis of media with internal structure were done by the Cosserat brothers. Birkhoff noted that the classical Navier–Stokes equation does not fully describe the motion of water. In this article, we propose an approach to the dynamics of media formed by chiral, planar and rigid molecules and propose some kind of Navier–Stokes equations for their description. Examples of such media are water, ozone, carbon dioxide and hydrogen cyanide.

It is shown that, for a spherically symmetric expansion of a gas into a low pressure, the shock wave with area change region discussed earlier (Freeman & Kumar 1972) can be further divided into two parts. For the Navier–Stokes equation, these are a region in which the asymptotic zero-pressure behaviour predicted by Ladyzhenskii is achieved followed further downstream by a transition to subsonic-type flow. The distance of this final region downstream is of order (pressure)−2/3 × (Reynolds number)−1/3.

Models with a vanishing anisotropic viscosity in the vertical direction are of relevance for the study of turbulent flows in geophysics. This motivates us to study the two-dimensional Boussinesq system with horizontal viscosity in only one equation. In this paper, we focus on the global existence issue for possibly large initial data. We first examine the case where the Navier–Stokes equation with no vertical viscosity is coupled with a transport equation. Second, we consider a coupling between the classical two-dimensional incompressible Euler equation and a transport–diffusion equation with diffusion in the horizontal direction only. For both systems, we construct global weak solutions à la Leray and strong unique solutions for more regular data. Our results rest on the fact that the diffusion acts perpendicularly to the buoyancy force.

A brief review of current approaches to active feedback control of the fluctuations arising in turbulent flows is presented, emphasizing the mathematical techniques involved. Active feedback control schemes are categorized and compared by examining the extent to which they are based on the governing flow equations. These schemes are broken down into the following categories: adaptive schemes, schemes based on heuristic physical arguments, schemes based on a dynamical systems approach, and schemes based on optimal control theory applied directly to the Navier-Stokes equations. Recent advances in methods of implementing small scale flow control ideas are also reviewed.

In this paper, we consider the compressible Navier–Stokes equation with density-dependent viscosity coefficients and a term of capillarity introduced formally by van der Waals in Ref. 51. This model includes at the same time the barotropic Navier–Stokes equations with variable viscosity coefficients, shallow-water system and the model introduced by Rohde in Ref. 46. We first study the well-posedness of the model in critical regularity spaces with respect to the scaling of the associated equations. In a functional setting as close as possible to the physical energy spaces, we prove global existence of solutions close to a stable equilibrium, and local in time existence of solutions with general initial data. Uniqueness is also obtained.

The direct numerical simulation of turbulence (DNS) has become a method of outmost importance for the investigation of turbulence physics, and its relevance is constantly growing due to the increasing popularity of high-performance-computing techniques. In the present work, the DNS approach is discussed mainly with regard to turbulent shear flows of incompressible fluids with constant properties. A body of literature is reviewed, dealing with the numerical integration of the Navier-Stokes equations, results obtained from the simulations, and appropriate use of the numerical databases for a better understanding of turbulence physics. Overall, it appears that high-performance computing is the only way to advance in turbulence research through the front of the direct numerical simulation.

Abstract The turbulent flow in a compressor cascade is calculated by using a new simulation method, i.e., parameter extension simulation (PES). It is defined as the calculation of a turbulent flow with the help of a reference solution. A special large-eddy simulation (LES) method is developed to calculate the reference solution for PES. Then, the reference solution is extended to approximate the exact solution for the Navier-Stokes equations. The Richardson extrapolation is used to estimate the model error. The compressor cascade is made of NACA0065-009 airfoils. The Reynolds number 3.82 × 105 and the attack angles −2° to 7° are accounted for in the study. The effects of the end-walls, attack angle, and tripping bands on the flow are analyzed. The PES results are compared with the experimental data as well as the LES results using the Smagorinsky, k-equation and WALE subgrid models. The numerical results show that the PES requires a lower mesh resolution than the other LES methods. The details of the flow field including the laminar-turbulence transition can be directly captured from the PES results without introducing any additional model. These characteristics make the PES a potential method for simulating flows in turbomachinery with high Reynolds numbers.

The article touches upon the application of the numerical finite difference method for solving Navier-Stokes equation in case of one-dimensional problem of passing a cooled viscoelastic material inside circular nozzles. There have been analyzed the specific features of using the method and presented the results of its application. The object of study was not chosen at random, because viscous properties of raw gluten are variable and depend on the temperature, chemical composition and properties of the feedstock. Working not properly with the object of research (phenomenon, process), but with its model helps to characterize its properties and behavior in various situations relatively quickly and without significant costs. The need to identify patterns of internal heat and mass transfer, which is based on studying the kinetics of the process, is obvious for physic-mathematical modeling of heat and mass transfer processes of wheat gluten granulation, in particular, analyzing the mechanism of moisture removal during its drying under radiation power supply. The results of the conducted research are consistent with the available data on the subject, and the suggested approach to solving the problem of choosing rational hydrodynamic regimes has been applied due to the difficulty of experimental determining the velocity fields and problematic analyzing the system of hydrodynamic differential Navier-Stokes equations with variable proportionality ratios.

The article discusses aeromechanical processes in a centrifugal mill at different speeds of rotation in order to establish the regularities of the kinematics of the flow of a heterogeneous medium in the grinding chamber of the mill, its interaction with the working body and the classification of the crushed material when removed from the grinding chamber. The study of gas dynamics of processes in the flow path of a centrifugal mill has been carried out. The trajectories of streams, velocity and pressure fields were investigated. The influence of various factors on the efficiency of the classification and the maximum diameter of particles removed from the grinding chamber was revealed. The regularities of the movement of a heterogeneous medium, its interaction with the working body and the classification of the crushed material when removed from the grinding chamber were established, the gas dynamics of processes in the flow path of a centrifugal mill was studied. The main way to increase the speed of air flows is to increase the flow of transport air, which in turn affects the aerodynamics of the processes in the grinding chamber of the mill, productivity and grinding time of the material. Processes of gas dynamics in a compressed medium of the flow path of a centrifugal mill were described by a system of non-stationary Navier-Stokes equations of continuity, energy and equation of state in approximation of the turbulence model. Analysis of the results of mathematical modeling of processes in the working chamber showed that the air flow carries out a complex rotational movement in the transverse and longitudinal sections with the formation of local zones of increased turbulence. As a result of numerical modeling and analysis of the results, factors have been identified that make it possible to intensify the process of material grinding. The flows have a pronounced ballistic trajectory. They start their movement from the center of the bottom of the grinding chamber and move along the walls of the chamber while rotating in a spiral and moving down the wall of the hollow shaft. It is observed that the point of separation of the flows rotating in the lower part of the grinding chamber and the flows moving in the upper part is on 60% of the height of the chamber. Keywords: modeling, centrifugal mill, finite element method, Navier-Stokes equation.
