Using Multiscale Norms to Quantify Mixing and Transportby Jean-Luc Thiffeault - arXiv
Mixing is relevant to many areas of science and engineering, including the pharmaceutical and food industries, oceanography, atmospheric sciences, etc. In all these situations one goal is to improve the degree of homogenisation of a substance.
