Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
Dieter Biskamp Manufacturer: Cambridge University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0521810116 |
Book Description
After a brief outline of magnetohydrodynamic theory, this introductory book discusses the macroscopic aspects of MHD turbulence, and covers the small-scale scaling properties. Applications are provided for astrophysical and laboratory systems. Magnetic turbulence is the natural state of most astrophysical systems, such as stellar convection zones, stellar winds or accretion discs. It is also found in laboratory devices, most notably in the reversed field pinch.Download Description
This book presents an introduction to, and modern account of, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, an active field both in general turbulence theory and in various areas of astrophysics. The book starts by introducing the MHD equations, certain useful approximations and the transition to turbulence. The second part of the book covers incompressible MHD turbulence, the macroscopic aspects connected with the different self-organization processes, the phenomenology of the turbulence spectra, two-point closure theory, and intermittency. The third considers two-dimensional turbulence and compressible (in particular, supersonic) turbulence. Because of the similarities in the theoretical approach, these chapters start with a brief account of the corresponding methods developed in hydrodynamic turbulence. The final part of the book is devoted to astrophysical applications: turbulence in the solar wind, in accretion disks, and in the interstellar medium. This book is suitable for graduate students and researchers working in turbulence theory, plasma physics and astrophysics.

Book Description
Fluid flow research is a rapidly growing technological field, with extensive research in many areas. This compilation of technical papers explores recent avenues of research in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flowsand the different aspects of both electroconductive and nonconductive fluidsin one complete volume. Drawing from the Eighth Beer-Sheva International Seminar on MHD Flows and Turbulence, Branover and Unger review more than 65 technical papers covering such topics as turbulent flows, energy conversion, and hydrodynamic and MHD flows. Held every three years since 1975, the Beer-Sheva seminars are widely recognized for their research-oriented focus as well as for the forum for information exchange throughout the international community. Each chapter presents a concise and comprehensive picture of experimental and theoretical research presently moving the field. Progress in Fluid Flow Research: Turbulence and Applied MHD provides a strong reference for any reader with a desire to follow the latest trends in this burgeoning area.

Hydrodynamic and Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulent Flows: Modelling and Statistical Theory (Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications)
A. Yoshizawa Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0792352254 |
Book Description
This book gives the first comprehensive overview of turbulence modelling from both the conventional and statistical-theoretical viewpoints. The mathematical structures of primary turbulence models such as algebraic (turbulent-viscosity-type), second-order, and subgrid-scales ones are elucidated, and the relationship between them is shown systematically. This approach is extended to turbulent or mean-field dynamo that plays an important role in the study of the generation and sustainment mechanisms of magnetic fields in astro-geophysical and fusion phenomena. Finally, turbulence modelling is shown to be a concept possessing a wide range of applicability in both the practical and academic senses. Readers are expected to have a basic knowledge of fluid mechanics at a graduate level and beyond. The important properties of turbulence necessary for turbulence modelling, however, are explained in a self-consistent manner. This book is therefore suited for both graduate students and researchers who are interested in turbulence modelling and turbulent dynamo.

Nonlinear MHD Waves and Turbulence
Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 3540666974 |
Book Description
This book is of interest to researchers in astrophysics and the planetary sciences. It surveys the current knowledge on the propagation of nonlinear waves and the development of a turbulent dynamics in magnetohydrodynamic flows. The authors emphasize how the theoretical understanding of MHD waves and turbulence is related to the description of media where the presence of an ambient magnetic field is known to play an essential role. These effects are important in the physics of various space plasmas such as the magnetosphere, the solar wind, the solar corona, the interplanetary and interstellar media, etc. The authors treat fundamental aspects as revealed by asymptotic analysis, numerical simulations, and observations in the solar wind.

Small-Scale Structures in Three-Dimensional Hydrodynamic and Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence: Proceedings of a Workshop Held at Nice, France, 10-13 January 1995 (Lecture Notes in Physics)
Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 3540604863 |
Book Description
Small-scale structures in turbulent flows appear as a subtle mixture of order and chaos that could play an important role in the energetics. The aim here is a better understanding of the similarities and differences between vortex and current dynamics, and of the influence of these structures on the statistical and transport properties of hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, with special concern for fusion plasmas, and solar or magnetospheric environments. Special emphasis is given to the intermittency at inertial scales and to the coherent structures at small scales. Magnetic reconnection and the dynamo effect are also discussed, together with the effect of stratification and inhomogeneity. The impact of hydrodynamic concepts on astro and geophysical observations are reviewed.
