Extraction of Coherent Structures using Direct Numerical Simulation in 3D Turbulent Flows and Its Effects on Chemotaxis

abstract: A numerical study of chemotaxis in 3D turbulence is presented here. Direct Numerical Simulation were used to calculate the nutrient uptake for both motile and non-motile bacterial species and by applying the dynamical systems theory the effect of flow topology on the variability of c...
