平面Couette流的符号动力学与混沌

Symbolic dynamics and chaos in plane Couette flow

Y. Charles Li

摘要:

根据最近的理论\cite{Li14},当雷诺数较大时,充分发展的湍流由短期不可预测性(粗略依赖于初始数据)引起;当雷诺数适中时,通常由混沌(长期不可预测性)引起瞬态湍流。本文研究了中等雷诺数下平面Couette流的混沌现象。在L. van Veen和G. Kawahara \cite{VK11}在横截同宿轨道上的一个极限环渐近平面Couette流中,我们探讨了同宿轨道附近的符号动力学和混沌。数学分析表明,在同宿轨道的邻域内存在一个轨道集合,它与二元序列的集合一一对应。二进制序列上的伯努利移位对应于适当定义的返回映射的混沌动力学。

英文摘要:

According to a recent theory \cite{Li14}, when the Reynolds number is large, fully developed turbulence is caused by short term unpredictability (rough dependence upon initial data); when the Reynolds number is moderate, often transient turbulence is caused by chaos (long term unpredictability). This article aims at studying chaos in plane Couette flow at moderate Reynolds number. Based upon the work of L. van Veen and G. Kawahara \cite{VK11} on a transversal homoclinic orbit asymptotic to a limit cycle in plane Couette flow, we explore symbolic dynamics and chaos near the homoclinic orbit. Mathematical analysis shows that there is a collection of orbits in the neighborhood of the homoclinic orbit, which is in one-to-one correspondence with the collection of binary sequences. The Bernoulli shift on the binary sequences corresponds to a chaotic dynamics of a properly defined return map.
