Transition to turbulence in shear flows

B Eckhardt - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2018 - Elsevier
Pipe flow and many other shear flows show a transition to turbulence at flow rates for which
the laminar profile is stable against infinitesimal perturbations. In this brief review the recent …

Statistical transition to turbulence in plane channel flow

S Gomé, LS Tuckerman, D Barkley - Physical Review Fluids, 2020 - APS
Intermittent turbulent-laminar patterns characterize the transition to turbulence in pipe, plane
Couette, and plane channel flows. The time evolution of turbulent-laminar bands in plane …

Quadrupolar flows around spots in internal shear flows

Z Wang, C Guet, R Monchaux, Y Duguet… - Journal of Fluid …, 2020 - cambridge.org
Turbulent spots occur in shear flows confined between two walls and are surrounded by
robust quadrupolar flows. Although the far-field decay of such large-scale flows has been …

Propagation speed of turbulent fronts in pipe flow at high Reynolds numbers

K Chen, D Xu, B Song - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022 - cambridge.org
We investigated the propagation of turbulent fronts in pipe flow at high Reynolds numbers by
direct numerical simulation. We used a technique combining a moving frame of reference …

Mean azimuthal flow of puff in pipe flow

C Chen, J Tao, A Xu - Physics of Fluids, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
The mean azimuthal flow of puff, a key structure of the subcritical transition in pipe flow, is
studied numerically and theoretically in this Letter. It is revealed that the mean azimuthal …

Origin of localized snakes-and-ladders solutions of plane Couette flow

M Salewski, JF Gibson, TM Schneider - Physical Review E, 2019 - APS
Spatially localized invariant solutions of plane Couette flow are organized in a snakes-and-
ladders structure strikingly similar to that observed for simpler pattern-forming partial …
