Mixing Versus Stirring (2019, background): “There, L-wide regions of nearly uniform concentration are separated by steep cliffs absorbing a concentration difference of the order of the mean (Sreenivasan 1991; Pumir 1994; Warhaft 2000).”
Turbulence in supersonic boundary layers at moderate Reynolds number (2011, background): “In this respect, we recall that passive scalars in a shearing field are expected to preferentially align in the principal strain direction, which is 45◦ for a parallel shear flow (Warhaft 2000).”
Scale-dependent droplet clustering in turbulent clouds (2001, background): “Indeed, it is known that high Reynolds number turbulence is characterized by spatial correlations of scalar concentration (Monin & Yaglom 1975; Sreenivasan & Antonia 1997; Warhaft 2000).”
THE LONG-TERM EVOLUTION OF THE GALACTIC DISK TRACED BY DISSOLVING STAR CLUSTERS (2010, background): “If dust is a passive contaminant in this medium, then its local density distribution is the same as the gas density (Warhaft 2000).”
Influence of surface heterogeneity on scalar dissimilarity in the roughness sublayer (2007, background): “Similarity theory leads to an expectation of similar transport for passive scalars (Hill 1989), where passive scalars are those transported without dynamically affecting the turbulent flow from effects such as buoyancy (Warhaft 2000).”
Flow structure, momentum and heat transport in a two-tandem-cylinder wake (2006, background): “The importance and relevance of the passive scalar to turbulent mixing, pollution and many other engineering settings has been elucidated in reviews by Warhaft (2000), Shraiman & Siggia (2000) and Antonia & Orlandi (2003).”
