TitlePropagation in Systems Far from Equilibrium : Proceedings of the Workshop, Les Houches, France, March 10???18, 1987
Author(s)Wesfreid, Jose E;Brand, Helmut R;Manneville, Paul;Albinet, Gilbert;Boccara, Nino
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1988.
DescriptionX, 425 p : online resource
Abstract NoteMacroscopic physics provides us with a great variety of pattern-forming systems displaying propagation phenomena, from reactive fronts in combustion, to wavy structures in convection and to shear flow instabilities in hydrodynamics. These proceedings record progress in this rapidly expanding field. The contributions have the following major themes: - The problems of velocity selection and front morphology of propagating interfaces in multiphase media, with emphasis on recent theoretical and experimental results on dendritic crystal growth, Saffman-Taylor fingering, directional solidification and chemical waves. - The "unfolding" of large-scale, low-frequency behavior in weakly confined homogeneous systems driven far from equilibrium, and more specifically, the envelope approach to the mathematical description of textures in different cases: steady cells, propagating waves, structural defects, and phase instabilities. - The implications of the presence of global downstream transport in open flows for the nature, convective or absolute, of shear flow instabilities, with applications to real boundary layer flows or shear layers, as reported in contributions covering experimental situations of fundamental and/or engineering interest

TitleCellular Automata and Modeling of Complex Physical Systems : Proceedings of the Winter School, Les Houches, France, February 21???28, 1989
Author(s)Manneville, Paul;Boccara, Nino;Vichniac, Gerard Y;Bidaux, Roger
PublicationBerlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1989.
DescriptionIX, 319 p : online resource
Abstract NoteCellular automata are fully discrete dynamical systems with dynamical variables defined at the nodes of a lattice and taking values in a finite set. Application of a local transition rule at each lattice site generates the dynamics. The interpretation of systems with a large number of degrees of freedom in terms of lattice gases has received considerable attention recently due to the many applications of this approach, e.g. for simulating fluid flows under nearly realistic conditions, for modeling complex microscopic natural phenomena such as diffusion-reaction or catalysis, and for analysis of pattern-forming systems. The discussion in this book covers aspects of cellular automata theory related to general problems of information theory and statistical physics, lattice gas theory, direct applications, problems arising in the modeling of microscopic physical processes, complex macroscopic behavior (mostly in connection with turbulence), and the design of special-purpose computers

TitleInstabilities, chaos and turbulence
Author(s)Paul Manneville
Edition2nd
PublicationLondon, Imperial College Press, 2010.
Descriptionxv, 439p.
Series(ICP Fluid mechanics)
Abstract NoteBook is a self contained introduction to a wide body of knowledge on nonlinear dynamics and chaos. manneville emphasises the understainding of basic concepts and the nontrivial character of non linear response, constrasing it with the intuitively simple linear response. He explains the theoretica framework using pedagogical examples from fluid dynamics, though prior knowledge of the filed is not requied. Heuristic arguments and worked examples replace most esoteric technicalities.
