| Outline:
Experimental and simulation studies of turbulent energy dissipation
Coarse-grained equations and energy-cascade
Singularities and dissipation (Onsager 1949 theorem)
Two examples:
- Burgers equation (shocks, dissipation & cascade)
- Kraichnan scalar model (Richardson diffusion & dissipation)
Taylor's vortex-stretching picture
- the vortex "autodynamo", vorticity & energy cascade, possible role of vortex reconnection
Dissipation in wall-bounded flows (if time permits)
- experiments & simulations, vortex dynamics
