Issue No. 170Time: 9:30 a.m. June 5Location: B-518 Lee Shau Kee Building of Science and TechnologyAbstract:Turbulence is inherently a multiscale phenomenon, in which nonlinear cascades redistribute energy across scales and govern key flow characteristics, including dissipation, scalar mixing, and dispersion. It is well known that the forward cascade is dominant in three-dimensional turbulence, .…
