Research
Michio YAMADA is working on Fluid Dynamics and its related applied mathematical methods. He is particularly interested in those problems related to turbulence theory, geophysical fluid dynamic, motion of small creatures in fluids and application of wavelet analysis. Recently he has been studying relations between statistical properties of turbulence and structure of solution orbits in phase space. Also he studies flow pattern formations of Navier-Stokes fluid on a rotationg sphere, where global patterns emerge from initial turbulent fields through wave-mean flow interactions. Data analysis method is another topic he is interested in. Statistical methods with wavelets for data analysis are one of his research subjects.
