This article develops some general observations on the statistical, geometrical and dynamic properties of three-dimensional autonomous and periodically forced mixing systems. The main geometrical differences between the two-dimensional and three-dimensional cases, and between autonomous and time-periodic velocity fields are discussed in detail. Although the article makes use exclusively of model systems of three-dimensional flows, the results obtained give useful hints to approach a global characterization of mixing in types of industrial equipment such as stirred vessels.

Abstract
This article develops some general observations on the statistical, geometrical and dynamic properties of three-dimensional autonomous and periodically forced mixing systems. The main geometrical differences between the two-dimensional and three-dimensional cases, and between autonomous and time-periodic velocity fields are discussed in detail. Although the article makes use exclusively of model systems of three-dimensional flows, the results obtained give useful hints to approach a global characterization of mixing in types of industrial equipment such as stirred vessels.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
