Incompressible Turbulence as Nonlocal Field Theory

It is well known that incompressible turbulence is nonlocal in real space because sound speed is infinite in incompressible fluids. The equation in Fourier space indicates that it is nonlocal in Fourier space as well. Contrast this with Burgers equation which is local in real space. Note that the sound speed in Burgers equation is zero. In our presentation we will contrast these two equations using nonlocal field theory. Energy spectrum and renormalized parameters will be discussed.Comment: 7 pages; Talk presented in Conference on "Perspectives in Nonlinear Dynamics (PNLD 2004)" held in Chennai, 200

Proton albedo spectrum observation in low latitude region at Hyderabad, India

The flux and the energy spectrum of low energy (30-100 MeV) proton albedos, have been observed for the first time in a low latitude region, over Hyderabad, India. The preliminary results, based on the quick look data acquisition and display system are presented. A charged particle telescope, capable of distinguishing singly charged particles such as electrons, muons, protons in low energy region, records the data of both upward as well as downward moving particles. Thus spectra of splash and re-entrant albedo protons have been recorded simultaneously in a high altitude Balloon flight carried out on 8th December, 1985, over Hyderabad, India. Balloon floated at an latitude of approx. 37 km (4 mb)

Computation of Kolmogorov's Constant in Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence

In this paper we calculate Kolmogorov's constant for magnetohydrodynamic turbulence to one loop order in perturbation theory using the direct interaction approximation technique of Kraichnan. We have computed the constants for various $E^u(k)/E^b(k)$, i.e., fluid to magnetic energy ratios when the normalized cross helicity is zero. We find that $K$ increases from 1.47 to 4.12 as we go from fully fluid case $(E^b=0)$ to a situation when $E^u/E^b=0.5$, then it decreases to 3.55 in a fully magnetic limit $(E^u=0)$. When $E^u/E^b=1$, we find that $K=3.43$.Comment: Latex, 10 pages, no figures, To appear in Euro. Phys. Lett., 199

Field theoretic calculation of scalar turbulence

The cascade rate of passive scalar and Bachelor's constant in scalar turbulence are calculated using the flux formula. This calculation is done to first order in perturbation series. Batchelor's constant in three dimension is found to be approximately 1.25. In higher dimension, the constant increases as $d^{1/3}$.Comment: RevTex4, publ. in Int. J. Mod. Phy. B, v.15, p.3419, 200

Surgical technique for arthroscopic onlay suprapectoral biceps tenodesis with an all-suture anchor.

The long head of the biceps is a frequent pain generator in the shoulder. Tendinopathy of the long head of the biceps may be treated with biceps tenodesis. There has been great debate about the optimal technique for biceps tenodesis, without a clear distinction between different techniques. Biceps tenodesis fixation may include interference fixation, suspensory fixation, all-suture anchors, and soft tissue fixation. In this technical note, we describe an all-arthroscopic onlay suprapectoral biceps tenodesis with an all-suture anchor
