It is shown that in turbulent flows the distributed chaos with spontaneously broken translational space symmetry (homogeneity) has a stretched exponential spectrum $\exp-(k/k_{\beta})^{\beta }$ with $\beta =1/2$. Good agreement has been…
We demonstrate the ability to experimentally measure fluctuations of the convective heat transfer coefficient at the wall in a turbulent boundary layer. For this, we measure two-dimensional fields of wall-temperature fluctuations beneath a…
The degree of linear polarization has recently been found to show wide random variations over the solar disk. These variations are presumably at least partly due to fluctuations in the flux density of turbulent photospheric magnetic fields…
We present experimental evidence of global viscoelastic flow transitions in 2:1, 8:1 and 32:1 planar contractions under inertia-less conditions. Light sheet visualization and laser Doppler velocimetry techniques are used to probe spatial…
The behavior of energy polydisperse $2d$ Lennard-Jones fluid (in thin-film geometry) is studied subjected to linear flow field using molecular dynamics simulations. By considering neutral and selective substrates we systematically explore…
Kinetics of phase separation in a three dimensional single-component Lennard-Jones fluid, that exhibits vapor-liquid transition, is studied via molecular dynamics simulations after quenching homogeneous systems, of different overall…
Patterns formed by the flow of an inhomogeneous fluid (suspension) over a smooth inclined surface were studied. It was observed that for inclination angle larger than a threshold, global fractal patterns are formed. The fractal dimensions…
We develop an analytic theory of strong anisotropy of the energy spectra in the thermally-driven turbulent counterflow of superfluid He-4. The key ingredients of the theory are the three-dimensional differential closure for the vector of…
We theoretically investigate the effect of random fluctuations on the motion of elongated microswimmers near hydrodynamic transport barriers in externally-driven fluid flows. Focusing on the two-dimensional hyperbolic flow, we consider the…
We present a quasi-two dimensional model of flowing soap films that bears striking similarity to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The variation in soap film thickness that is commonly used for flow visualization in experiments is…
We study turbulent channel flow of a binary mixture of finite-size neutrally-buoyant rigid particles by means of interface-resolved direct numerical simulations. We fix the bulk Reynolds number and total solid volume fraction, $Re_b = 5600$…
A two-dimensional complex plasma containing active Janus particles was studied experimentally. A single layer of micron-size plastic microspheres was suspended in the plasma sheath of a radio-frequency discharge in argon at low pressure.…
Direct numerical simulations are used to investigate the individual dynamics of large spherical particles suspended in a developed homogeneous turbulent flow. A definition of the direction of the particle motion relative to the surrounding…
In this paper we numerically study the behavior of the density power spectrum in turbulent thermally bistable flows. We analyze a set of five three-dimensional simulations where turbulence is randomly driven in Fourier space at a fixed…
A theoretical analysis is presented for turbulent flows, applicable for canonical (channel, boundary-layer and free jet) geometries. Momentum and energy balance for a control volume moving at the local mean velocity decouples the…
The fluctuation spectrum of a quasi-spherical vesicle with active membrane proteins is calculated. The activity of the proteins is modeled as the proteins pushing on their surroundings giving rise to non-local force distributions. Both the…
At the macroscopic scale, many important models of collective motion fall into the class of kinematic flows for which both velocity and diffusion terms depend only on particle density. When total particle numbers are fixed and finite,…
We use Direct Numerical Simulations to study the two-dimensional flow of a rotating, half soap bubble that is heated at its equator. The heating produces buoyancy and rotation generates a Coriolis forces in the fluid. However, due to the…
We conduct an in-depth analysis of statistical flow properties calculated from the reference high-resolution Saturn simulation obtained by global climate modelling in Part II. In the steady state of this reference simulation, strongly…
Dynamics of double membrane films is investigated in the long-wavelength limit including the overdamped squeezing mode. We demonstrate that thermal fluctuations essentially modify the character of the mode due to its nonlinear coupling to…
