Abstract: We expand on existing work and study the angular dynamics of isotropic and anisotropic particles in turbulence, and demonstrate capabilities in measuring the various quantities involved in these dynamics. We examine the shape-dependence of particle dynamics in turbulence by looking at disc-like triads and spherical tetrads. We see that large particles behave differently than expected tracer spheroids. Furthermore, we investigate particle alignment with the angular velocity, angular acceleration, and translational acceleration under various conditions such as extreme rotation power events.
