SUMMARY:Using Optimization to Reveal Scaling Laws in Turbulent Flows - Ric
 hard Kerswell\, Professor of Applied Mathematics\, University of Bristol

DESCRIPTION:In many fluid flow situations there is a prior unknown global 
 quantity\, such as heat flux in convection or mass flux in pressure-driven
  flow\, which is of overriding physical interest.  Understanding how this 
 quantity scales with the non-dimensional parameters describing the flow\ns
 ituation as one or more of these parameters become large (so that the flow
  is turbulent) is then a\nfundamental problem. In this talk\, I will brief
 ly review one particular approach to tackling this issue based upon optimi
 zation and then discuss how a variety of new developments augur well for\n
 future progress.\n\n
