Synthetic velocity gradient tensors and the identification of statistically significant aspects of the structure of turbulence

A method is presented for deriving random velocity gradient tensors given a source tensor. These synthetic tensors are constrained to lie within mathematical bounds of the non-normality of the source tensor, but we do not impose direct constraints upon scalar quantities typically derived from the ve...
