The nonlinear and nonlocal coupling of vorticity and strain-rate constitutes a major hindrance in understanding the self-amplification of velocity gradients in turbulent fluid flows. Utilizing highly-resolved direct numerical simulations of isotropic turbulence in periodic domains of up to $12288^3$ grid points, and Taylor-scale Reynolds number $R_lambda$ in the range $140-1300$, we investigate this non-locality by decomposing the strain-rate tensor into local and non-local contributions obtained through Biot-Savart integration of vorticity in a sphere of radius $R$. We find that vorticity is predominantly amplified by the non-local strain coming beyond a characteristic scale size, which varies as a simple power-law of vorticity magnitude. The underlying dynamics preferentially align vorticity with the most extensive eigenvector of non-local strain. The remaining local strain aligns vorticity with the intermediate eigenvector and does not contribute significantly to amplification; instead it surprisingly attenuates intense vorticity, leading to breakdown of the observed power-law and ultimately also the scale-invariance of vorticity amplification, with important implications for prevailing intermittency theories.
We discuss the possibility of dual local and non-local cascades in a 3D turbulent Beltrami flow, with inverse energy cascade and direct helicity cascade, by analogy with 2D turbulence. We discuss the corresponding energy spectrum in both local and no
We present data driven kinematic models for the motion of bubbles in high-Re turbulent fluid flows based on recurrent neural networks with long-short term memory enhancements. The models extend empirical relations, such as Maxey-Riley (MR) and its va
We present a new turbulent data reconstruction method with supervised machine learning techniques inspired by super resolution and inbetweening, which can recover high-resolution turbulent flows from grossly coarse flow data in space and time. For th
We study the growth rate and saturation level of the turbulent dynamo in magnetohydrodynamical simulations of turbulence, driven with solenoidal (divergence-free) or compressive (curl-free) forcing. For models with Mach numbers ranging from 0.02 to 2
We present two models for turbulent flows with periodic boundary conditions and with either rotation, or a magnetic field in the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) limit. One model, based on Lagrangian averaging, can be viewed as an invariant-preserving filt
