Turbulence and Self-Organization : Modeling Astrophysical Objects PDF
by Mikhail Ya Marov, Aleksander V. Kolesnichenko
Part of the Astrophysics and Space Science Library series
Description
The book deals with the development of continual models of turbulent natural media.
Such models serve as a ground for the statement and numerical evaluation of the key problems of the structure and evolution of the numerous astrophysical and geophysical objects.
The processes of ordering (self-organization) in an originally chaotic turbulent medium are addressed and treated in detail with the use of irreversible thermodynamics and stochastic dynamics approaches which underlie the respective models.
Different examples of ordering set up in the natural environment and outer space are brought and thoroughly discussed, the main focus being given to the protoplanetary discs formation and evolution.
