Research Abstract |
To dynamically describe spatially segregated turbulence, we developed a damping filter method: To the governing equation we add the filter which damps out fluctuations in the external region of the focused spatial region where the turbulence is sustained. To obtain the corresponding exact solution, we have applied Newton method with the damping filter to one dimensional model equation and succeeded to get spatially localized solutions. Dealing with traveling solitary waves, we found that some singularities appear in the limit that the amplitude of the filter goes to zero and we proposed a method to remove the singularity. We showed that in the 2D inverse energy cascade turbulence, spatially localized vortices produced by a random forcing induce non-local energy transfer and this nonlocal transfer breaks universality of energy cascade.
