Generalizing prior work of P. W. Anderson and E. R. Huggins, we show that a "detailed Josephson-Anderson relation" holds for drag on a finite body held at rest in a classical incompressible fluid flowing with velocity ${\bf V}.$ The…
The connection between the drag and vorticity dynamics for viscous flow over a bluff body is explored using the Josephson-Anderson (J-A) relation for classical fluids. The instantaneous rate of work on the fluid, associated with the drag…
We verify a recent prediction (Eq. 3.50 in G. L. Eyink, Phys. Rev. X 11, 031054 (2021)) for the drag on an object moving through a fluid. In this prediction the velocity field is decomposed into a nonvortical (potential) and vortical…
The Josephson-Anderson relation, valid for the incompressible Navier-Stokes solutions which describe flow around a solid body, instantaneously equates the power dissipated by drag to the flux of vorticity across the flow lines of the…
Steady forcing at the wall of a channel flow is studied via DNS to assess its ability of yielding reductions of turbulent friction drag. The wall forcing consists of a stationary distribution of spanwise velocity that alternates in the…
Drag for wall-bounded flows is directly related to flux of spanwise vorticity outward from the wall. In turbulent flows a key contribution arises from cross-stream "vorticity cascade" by nonlinear advection and stretching of vorticity. We…
A commonplace view of pressure-driven turbulence in pipes and channels is as "cascades" of streamwise momentum toward the viscous layer at the wall. We present in this paper an alternative picture of these flows as "inverse cascades" of…
This paper presents a new theory of turbulence in time-independent non-Newtonian fluids. The wall layer is modelled in terms of unsteady exchange of viscous momentum between the wall and the main stream, following the classic visualisation…

Recently, a new category of superfluids and superconductors has been discovered in various systems. These could be linked to the idea of a supersolid phase, featuring a macroscopic wavefunction with spatial modulation resulting from…
We investigate the energy cascade in wall-bounded turbulence by analysing the interscale transfer between streamwise and spanwise length scales in periodic channels. This transfer originates from the nonlinear interactions in the advective…
We study the steady flow-induced deformation between an incompressible non-Newtonian fluid and a three-dimensional (3D) deformable channel. Specifically, we provide a comprehensive experimental--theoretical framework for such flows of…
Roughness predominantly alters the near-wall region of turbulent flow while the outer layer remains similar. This makes it a prime candidate for the minimal-span channel, which only captures the near-wall flow by restricting the spanwise…
In quantum gases, weak links are typically realized with externally imposed optical potentials. We show that, in rotating binary condensates, quantized vortices in one component form hollow channels that act as self-induced weak links for…
