Nonlinearity, chaos, and self-similarity: Effects of mixing, aggregation, reaction and breakup on structure formation
This dissertation focuses on four problems: stretching and stirring in chaotic flows, aggregation in chaotic and regular flows, diffusion and reaction in lamellar structures, and breakup in chaotic flows. Stretching and stirring in chaotic flows is simulated for O(10$\sp5$) material points and is mo...
