We investigate the laminar-turbulent boundary in plane Poiseuille flow by the method of edge tracking. In short and narrow computational domains we find for a wide range in Reynolds number that all states in the boundary converge to a…
Channel flow, the pressure driven flow between parallel plates, has exact coherent structures that show various degrees of localization. For states which are localized in streamwise direction but extended in spanwise direction, we show that…
In this letter, it is shown numerically that in plane Poiseuille flow and before the threshold of equilibrium turbulence defined by the directed-percolation universality class, a sparse turbulent state in form of localized turbulent band…
We study the laminar turbulent boundary in plane Poiseuille flow at $Re=1400$ and $2180$ using the technique of edge tracking. For large computational domains the attracting state in the laminar-turbulent boundary is localized in spanwise…
We consider a 9-PDE (1-space and 1-time) model of plane Couette flow in which the degrees of freedom are severely restricted in the streamwise and cross-stream directions to study spanwise localisation in detail. Of the many steady Eckhaus…
Travelling-wave solutions are shown to bifurcate from relative periodic orbits in plane Poiseuille flow at Re = 2000 in a saddle-node infinite period bifurcation. These solutions consist in self-sustaining sinuous quasi-streamwise streaks…
Pressure-driven flow of a dilute polymer solution has been numerically observed to possess a form of elastic turbulence which is organised around the interactions of localised versions of 2-dimensional `arrowhead' travelling waves (Page et…
This article presents a numerical analysis of the instability developing in horizontally sheared Poiseuille flow, when stratification extends along the vertical direction. Our study builds up on the previous work that originally detected…
Turbulence in wall-bounded shear flows is increasingly understood through exact coherent structures (ECS) -- invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations that act as organising centres in the high-dimensional state space. Here we…
We present an equilibrium solution of plane Couette flow that is exponentially localized in both the spanwise and streamwise directions. The solution is similar in size and structure to previously computed turbulent spots and localized,…
We study the turbulence transition of plane Couette flow in large domains where localised perturbations are observed to generate growing turbulent spots. Extending previous studies on the boundary between laminar and turbulent dynamics we…
Turbulent spots surrounded by laminar flow are a landmark of transitional shear flows, but the dependence of their kinematic properties on spatial structure is poorly understood. We here investigate this dependence in pipe flow for Reynolds…
The transition to turbulence in plane Poiseuille flow (PPF) is connected with the presence of exact coherent structures. In contrast to other shear flows, PPF has a number of different coherent states that are relevant for the transition.…
We study numerically a succession of transitions in pipe Poiseuille flow that leads from simple travelling waves to waves with chaotic time-dependence. The waves at the origin of the bifurcation cascade possess a shift-reflect symmetry and…
Motivated by the recent discovery of a dispersive-to-nondispersive transition for linear waves in shear flows, we accurately explored the wavenumber-Reynolds number parameter map of the plane Poiseuille flow, in the limit of least-damped…
Channel flow of an incompressible fluid at Reynolds numbers above 2400 possesses a number of different spatially localized solutions that approach laminar flow far upstream and downstream. We use one such relative time-periodic solution,…
The temporal linear stability of plane Poiseuille flow modified by spanwise forcing applied at the walls is considered. The forcing consists of a stationary streamwise distribution of spanwise velocity that generates a steady transversal…
A structure consisting of quasi-laminar and turbulent regions in a stripe pattern, which can be found in a transitional plane channel flow, is called `turbulent stripe'. In the previous works, the emergence of this structure was confirmed…
Unsteady spatially localized states such as puffs, slugs or spots play an important role in transition to turbulence. In plane Couette flow, steady versions of these states are found on two intertwined solution branches describing…
We propose a novel multiple-scale spatial marching method for flows with slow streamwise variation. The key idea is to couple the boundary region equations, which govern large-scale flow evolution, with local exact coherent structures that…
