On the origin of kinetic energy in The Physical Universe including the Godforsaken area of turbulence

ORAL

Abstract

There is a popular parable attributed to W. Heisenberg: "When I meet God, I am going to ask him two questions: Why relativity? And why turbulence? I really believe he will have an answer for the first." Answers to diverse problems in physics can be obtained with a Cellular Automaton (CA) Model (see our recent minireview [1], with pertinent references) CA model combines divergent functionalities that otherwise difficult to imagine. The CA generates steady relocating formations - corresponding to the basic stable constituents of the physical world: electrons, protons, photons, and neutrinos, they exist only in continuous motion. Quantum behavior of micro-objects results from the specifics of the CA measurements.. As to macro bodies, they are split into fragments dragged by conflicting velocities. In seismology, this leads to rifts of tectonic plates causing abrupt mechanical impacts. Similar rifts occur in turbulence lamina, although they are far away from cosmic phenomena. Emulated in closed cycles such laminar cracks can lead to extraction of heat from the fragments dragged by of the CA Universe.
