This is a joint work of Dukjin Nam (Ph.D. student) with Dr.
Efendiev (Texas A&M) and Dr. Novikov (Penn. State). The goal of
this project
is to develop an efficient multiscale numerical technique for solving
turbulent diffusion equation. The work
is based on a recent work of Dr. Novikov (with
G.Papanicolaou and L.Ryzhik) "Boundary
layers for cellular flows at high Peclet numbers", Comm. Pure Appl.
Math., vol.58 (2005), no.
7, pp. 867-922.
Reconstructed solution of Childress problem (above).
This figure represents a periodic solution of reduced
equations related to Childress's problem (above).
This figure illustrates the periodic initial condition for
reduced Childress's problem (above).
