The proliferation of turbulence in subcritical wall-bounded shear flows involves spatially localised coherent structures. Turbulent spots correspond to finite-time nonlinear responses to pointwise disturbances and are regarded as seeds of…

This paper develops a spatial input-output approach to investigate the dynamics of a turbulent boundary layer subject to a localized single frequency excitation. This method uses one-way spatial integration to reformulate the problem in…

Intermittent fluctuations in the boundary of magnetically confined plasmas are investigated by numerical turbulence simulations of a reduced fluid model describing the evolution of the plasma density and electric drift vorticity in the…

Consider the Ising model at low-temperatures and positive external field $\lambda$ on an $N\times N$ box with Dobrushin boundary conditions that are plus on the north, east, and west boundaries and minus on the south boundary. If $\lambda =…

An overexpanded jet in a truncated ideally contoured nozzle is found to feature a tonal behavior. The flow field is investigated to understand its origin and show how it modifies side-load properties. The temporal and spatial organization…

We demonstrate that turbulent zonal jets, analogous to Jovian ones, which are quasi-stationary, are actually metastable. After extremely long times, they randomly switch to new configurations with a different number of jets. The genericity…
