Study of the dynamics of transport and mixing using set oriented methods

Efficient mixing can be achieved in flows where turbulence is absent, if the trajectories of passively advected particles in the flow are chaotic. The chaotic nature of particle trajectories results in exponential stretching of material lines in the flow. Thus the interface along which diffusion occ...
