Show moreCoherent Vortex Simulation (CVS) is an attempt to take a turbulent fluid and split the turbulent fluctuations into non-diffusive and diffusive components. CVS tracks the nonlinear dynamics using a wavelet basis which captures the regions of strong vorticity gradients at all scales (Schneider Kevlahan & Farge (1997), Schneider & Farge (1998)) and discards the diffusive components which have reached a statistical equilibrium. My work this summer explores alternatives to the standard CVS methods of isolating these strong vorticity regions. Show less
