We present Lagrangian one-particle statistics from the Risoe PTV experiment of a turbulent flow. We estimate the Lagrangian Kolmogorov constant $C_0$ and find that it is affected by the large scale inhomogeneities of the flow. The pdf of temporal velocity increments are highly non-Gaussian for small times which we interpret as a consequence of intermittency. Using Extended Self-Similarity we manage to quantify the intermittency and find that the deviations from Kolmogorov 1941 similarity scaling is larger in the Lagrangian framework than in the Eulerian. Through the multifractal model we calculate the multifractal dimension spectrum.

The statistics of Lagrangian particles in turbulent flows is considered in the framework of a simple vortex model. Here, the turbulent velocity field is represented by a temporal sequence of Burgers vortices of different circulation, strain, and orie
ntation. Based on suitable assumptions about the vortices statistical properties, the statistics of the velocity increments is derived. In particular, the origin and nature of small-scale intermittency in this model is investigated both numerically and analytically.
We present an investigation of the statistics of velocity gradient related quantities, in particluar energy dissipation rate and enstrophy, along the trajectories of fluid tracers and of heavy/light particles advected by a homogeneous and isotropic t
urbulent flow. The Refined Similarity Hypothesis (RSH) proposed by Kolmogorov and Oboukhov in 1962 is rephrased in the Lagrangian context and then tested along the particle trajectories. The study is performed on state-of-the-art numerical data resulting from numerical simulations up to Re~400 with 2048^3 collocation points. When particles have small inertia, we show that the Lagrangian formulation of the RSH is well verified for time lags larger than the typical response time of the particle. In contrast, in the large inertia limit when the particle response time approaches the integral-time-scale of the flow, particles behave nearly ballistic, and the Eulerian formulation of RSH holds in the inertial-range.
We present a comparison of different particles velocity and acceleration statistics in two paradigmatic turbulent swirling flows: the von Karman flow in a laboratory experiment, and the Taylor-Green flow in direct numerical simulations. Tracers, as w
ell as inertial particles, are considered. Results indicate that, in spite of the differences in boundary conditions and forcing mechanisms, scaling properties and statistical quantities reveal similarities between both flows, pointing to new methods to calibrate and compare models for particles dynamics in numerical simulations, as well as to characterize the dynamics of particles in simulations and experiments.
We investigate the response of large inertial particle to turbulent fluctuations in a inhomogeneous and anisotropic flow. We conduct a Lagrangian study using particles both heavier and lighter than the surrounding fluid, and whose diameters are compa
rable to the flow integral scale. Both velocity and acceleration correlation functions are analyzed to compute the Lagrangian integral time and the acceleration time scale of such particles. The knowledge of how size and density affect these time scales is crucial in understanding partical dynamics and may permit stochastic process modelization using two-time models (for instance Saw-fords). As particles are tracked over long times in the quasi totality of a closed flow, the mean flow influences their behaviour and also biases the velocity time statistics, in particular the velocity correlation functions. By using a method that allows for the computation of turbulent velocity trajectories, we can obtain unbiased Lagrangian integral time. This is particularly useful in accessing the scale separation for such particles and to comparing it to the case of fluid particles in a similar configuration.
We study the joint probability distributions of separation, $R$, and radial component of the relative velocity, $V_{rm R}$, of particles settling under gravity in a turbulent flow. We also obtain the moments of these distributions and analyze their a
nisotropy using spherical harmonics. We find that the qualitative nature of the joint distributions remains the same as no gravity case. Distributions of $V_{rm R}$ for fixed values of $R$ show a power-law dependence on $V_{rm R}$ for a range of $V_{rm R}$, exponent of the power-law depends on the gravity. Effects of gravity are also manifested in the following ways: (a) moments of the distributions are anisotropic; the degree of anisotropy depends on particles Stokes number, but does not depend on $R$ for small values of $R$. (b) mean velocity of collision between two particles is decreased for particles having equal Stokes numbers but increased for particles having different Stokes numbers. For the later, collision velocity is set by the difference in their settling velocities.
