Turbulence governed by the Navier-Stokes equations shows a tendency to evolve towards a state in which the nonlinearity is diminished. In fully developed turbulence this tendency can be measured by comparing the variance of the nonlinear…
The turbulent/non-turbulent interface is analysed in a direct numerical simulation of a boundary layer in the range $Re_\theta=2800-6600$, with emphasis on the behaviour of the relatively large-scale fractal intermittent region. This…
Kinetic theory offers a promising alternative to conventional turbulence modelling by providing a mesoscopic perspective that naturally captures non-equilibrium physics such as non-Newtonian effects. In this work, we present an extension…
In this work, a near-wall model, which couples the inverse of a recently developed compressible velocity transformation [Griffin, Fu, & Moin, PNAS, 118:34, 2021] and an algebraic temperature-velocity relation, is developed for high-speed…
An experimental study was conducted in the CICLoPE long-pipe facility to investigate the correlation between wall-pressure and turbulent velocity fluctuations in the logarithmic region, at high friction Reynolds numbers ($4\,794 \lesssim…
Using the Lagrangian transport of momentum, the Reynolds shear stress can be expressed in terms of basic turbulence parameters. In this view, the Reynolds stress gradient represents the lateral transport of streamwise momentum, balanced by…
Turbulent flows consist of a wide range of interacting scales. Since the scale range increases as some power of the flow Reynolds number, a faithful simulation of the entire scale range is prohibitively expensive at high Reynolds numbers.…
In the context of subaqueous ripple and dune formation, we present here a Reynolds averaged calculation of the turbulent flow over a topography. We perform a weakly non-linear expansion of the velocity field, sufficiently accurate to…
A three-dimensional direct numerical simulation (3D DNS) is performed to describe the turbulent flow in an enclosed rotor-stator cavity characterized by a large aspect ratio $G=(b-a)/h=18.32$ and a small radius ratio $a/b=0.15$ ($a$ and $b$…
The ultimate goal of a sound theory of turbulence in fluids is to close in a rational way the Reynolds equations, namely to express the time averaged turbulent stress tensor as a function of the time averaged velocity field. This closure…
Turbulent concentric coaxial (annular) pipe flow is numerically investigated using a stochastic one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model as a stand-alone tool. The dimensionally reduced ODT domain enables fully resolved numerical simulations…
In this paper, we find a new large scale instability displayed by a rotating flow in forced turbulence. The turbulence is generated by a small scale external force at low Reynolds number. The theory is built on the rigorous asymptotic…
In wall-bounded flows, the laminar regime remain linearly stable up to large values of the Reynolds number while competing with nonlinear turbulent solutions issued from finite amplitude perturbations. The transition to turbulence of plane…
In this work we investigate symmetry breaking in the presence of a turbulent environment. The transition from a symmetric state to a symmetry-breaking state is demonstrated using two examples: (i) the transition of a two-dimensional flow to…
The study presents wall-modeled large-eddy simulations (LES) characterizing the flow features of a neutral atmospheric boundary layer over two urban-like roughness geometries: an array of three-dimensional square prisms and the…
We study the mechanism of energy injection from the mean flow to the fluctuating velocity necessary to maintain wall turbulence. This process is believed to be correctly represented by the linearized Navier--Stokes equations, and three…
We construct a simple analytic model for wall-bounded turbulence, containing only four adjustable parameters. Two of these parameters characterize the viscous dissipation of the components of the Reynolds stress-tensor and other two…
Aerospace design is increasingly incorporating Design Under Uncertainty based approaches to lead to more robust and reliable optimal designs. These approaches require dependable estimates of uncertainty in simulations for their success. The…
The scaling of Reynolds stresses in turbulent wall-bounded flows is the subject of a long running debate. In the near-wall ``inner'' region, a sizeable group, inspired by the ``attached eddy model'', has advocated the unlimited growth of…
A central obstacle to understanding the route to turbulence in wall-bounded flows is that the flows are composed of complex, highly fluctuating, and strongly nonlinear states. In the case of pipe flow, models have deepened our understanding…
