The flow randomization is a crucial phase before flow transition to the turbulent state. According to existing literatures, the randomization was caused by the big background noises and non-periodic spanwise boundary conditions. It was assumed that the large ring structure is affected by background noises first, and then the change of large ring structure affects the small length scales quickly, which directly leads to randomization and formation of turbulence. However, by careful analysis of our high order DNS results, we believe that the internal instability of multiple ring cycles structure is the main reason. What we observed is that randomization begins when the third cycle overlaps the first and second cycles. A significant asymmetric phenomenon is originated from the second cycle in the middle of both streamwise and spanwise directions. More technically, a visible asymmetric phenomenon in the middle vortex ring cycle starts at time step t=16.25T and x=838.9{delta}in where the top and bottom level rings are still completely symmetric. The non-symmetric structure of middle level ring affects the small length scale in boundary layer bottom quickly. The randomization phenomenon spreads to top level through ejections. Finally, the whole flow domain becomes randomized. A hypothesis of C- and K-types shift is given as a possible mechanism of flow randomization.","PeriodicalId":166772,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Chaotic Dynamics","volume":"147 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116620727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We compute the maximum Lyapunov exponent as a function of the damping rates in a two-parameter space, and identify shrimp-shaped self-similar structures in the parameter space. By varying the damping rate of the low-frequency wave, we construct bifurcation diagrams and focus on a saddle-node bifurcation and an interior crisis associated with a periodic window. We detect chaotic saddles and their stable and unstable manifolds, and demonstrate how the connection between two chaotic saddles via coupling unstable periodic orbits can result in a crisis-induced intermittency. The relevance of this work for the understanding of modulational processes observed in plasmas and fluids is discussed.","PeriodicalId":166772,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Chaotic Dynamics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131080859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To demonstrate general properties of the $alpha$-families we use examples from physics (Standard $alpha$-family of maps) and population biology (Logistic $alpha$-family of maps).

In a physical system, the inevitable presence of some noise sets a finite limit to the finest possible resolution that can be attained. Much previous research deals with what this attainable resolution might be, all of it based on a global averages over stochastic flow. We show how to compute the locally optimal partition, for a given dynamical system and given noise, in terms of local eigenfunctions of the Fokker-Planck operator and its adjoint. We first analyze the interplay of the deterministic dynamics with the noise in the neighborhood of a periodic orbit of a map, by using a discretized version of Fokker-Planck formalism. Then we propose a method to determine the 'optimal resolution' of the state space, based on solving Fokker-Planck's equation locally, on sets of unstable periodic orbits of the deterministic system.

In the present work we focus our attention to the Lorenz system with a linear dissipative sector in its phase space dynamics. In this case the Intersecting Surfaces are Quadratic. We parametrize its dissipation strength through a continuous control parameter $epsilon$, acting homogeneously over the whole 3-dim. phase space. In the extended $epsilon$-Lorenz system we find a scaling relation between the dissipation strength $ epsilon $ and Reynolds number parameter r . It results from the scale covariance, we impose on the Lorenz equations under arbitrary rescalings of all its dynamical coordinates. Its integrable limit, ($ epsilon = 0 $, fixed r), which is described in terms of intersecting Quadratic Nambu \"Hamiltonians\" Surfaces, gets mapped on the infinite value limit of the Reynolds number parameter (r $rightarrow infty, epsilon= 1$). In effect weak dissipation, through small $epsilon$ values, generates and controls the well explored Route to Chaos in the large r-value regime. The non-dissipative $epsilon=0 $ integrable limit is therefore the gateway to Chaos for the Lorenz system.","PeriodicalId":166772,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Chaotic Dynamics","volume":"391 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134453165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most striking aspect of our model is that stagnant motion around the indifferent fixed point is induced by the log-Weibull law, which is derived from Nekhoroshev stability in the context of nearly-integrable Hamiltonian systems. Using renewal analysis, we derive a logarithmic inverse power decay of the correlation function and a $1/omega$-like power spectral density. We also derive the so-called 1-stable law as a component of the time-average distribution of a simple observable function. This distributional law enables us to calculate a logarithmic inverse power law of large deviations. Numerical results confirm these analytical results. Finally, we discuss the relationship between the parameters of our model and the degrees of freedom in nearly-integrable Hamiltonian systems.","PeriodicalId":166772,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Chaotic Dynamics","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116856979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
