Grigory Barenblatt, who is also a researcher with Berkeley Lab holding a joint faculty appointment with UC Berkeley, Chorin, and Valeriy Prostokishin of the Shirshov Institute of Oceanology in Moscow, formerly a visiting Berkeley Lab researcher, describe their work in the June 25, 2005 edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Barenblatt, Chorin, and Prostokishin developed their flow model from the "sandwich model" of tropical cyclones proposed by Sir James Lighthill, one of the greatest applied mathematicians of our times.
Chorin and Barenblatt are both experts in the development of computational methods for studying the flow of fluids and solving problems involving turbulence, considered to be one of most difficult in all of applied mathematics.
