Townsend's attached-eddy hypothesis (AEH) provides a theoretical description of turbulence statistics in the logarithmic region in terms of coherent motions that are self-similar with the wall-normal distance (y). Here, we show the…
Two-point measurements of concentration are obtained in a meandering passive-scalar plume released at five different heights within the fully-turbulent region of a high-Reynolds number turbulent boundary layer (TBL). These measurements are…
Statistical descriptions of coherent flow motions in the atmospheric boundary layer have many applications in the wind engineering community. For instance, the dynamical characteristics of large-scale motions in wall-turbulence play an…
Wall turbulence is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature and engineering application, yet predicting such turbulence is difficult due to its complexity. High-Reynolds-number turbulence, which includes most practical flows, is particularly…
Scaling of turbulent wall-bounded flows is revealed in the gradient structures, for each of the Reynolds stress components. Within the dissipation structure, an asymmetrical order exists, that we can deploy to unify the scaling and…
Wall-pressure fluctuations are a practically robust input for real-time control systems aimed at modifying wall-bounded turbulence. The scaling behaviour of the wall-pressure--velocity coupling requires investigation to properly design a…
A new velocity scale is derived that yields a Reynolds number independent profile for the streamwise turbulent fluctuations in the near-wall region of wall bounded flows for $y^+<25$. The scaling demonstrates the important role played by…
On the basis of (i) Particle Image Velocimetry data of a Turbulent Boundary Layer with large field of view and good spatial resolution and (ii) a mathematical relation between the energy spectrum and specifically modeled flow structures, we…
Turbulence in wall-bounded flows is characterized by stable statistics. Although, in many turbulent systems, this stable statistical state corresponds to a stable fixed point of an associated statistical state dynamics (SSD) closed at…
The spatial characteristics and structure of an axisymmetric turbulent boundary layer under strong adverse pressure gradient and weak transverse curvature are investigated using incompressible large-eddy simulation. The boundary layer is on…
The vectoral wind structure of daytime atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) turbulence is strongly dependent on the balance between shear-driven turbulence production of horizontal fluctuations (driven by winds at the mesoscale), and…
Global intermittency is observed in the stably stratified Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) and corresponds to having large nonturbulent flow regions to develop in an otherwise turbulent flow. In this paper, the differences between…
The anomalous scaling phenomena of three-dimensional passive scalar turbulence are studied using high resolution direct numerical simulation. The inertial range scaling exponents of the passive scalar increment and the scalar dissipation…
This article discusses the description of wall-bounded turbulence as a deterministic high-dimensional dynamical system of interacting coherent structures, defined as eddies with enough internal dynamics to behave relatively autonomously…
Anomalous scaling in the statistics of an active scalar in homogeneous turbulent convection is studied using a dynamical shell model. We extend refined similarity ideas for homogeneous and isotropic turbulence to homogeneous turbulent…
In this work, we study the scale characteristics of the log- and outer-region motions and structures in subsonic and supersonic turbulence. To this end, a series of direct numerical simulations of the compressible turbulent channel flow at…
Recent research has shed light on the role of coherent structures in forming layers when stably stratified turbulence is forced with horizontal shear (Lucas, Caulfield & Kerswell, J. Fluid Mech., vol. 832, 2017, pp. 409-437). Here we extend…
A combination of methods originating from non-stationary timeseries analysis is applied to two datasets of near surface turbulence in order to gain insights on the non-stationary enhancement mechanism of intermittent turbulence in the…
Passive scalars in turbulent channel flows are investigated as canonical problem for heat and mass transfer in turbulent boundary-layer flows. The one-dimensional turbulence model is used to numerically investigate the Schmidt and Reynolds…
Surface patterns on ablating materials are observed in high-speed ground and flight tests, but the mechanisms behind their formation are not known. In this paper, the origin of surface patterns is investigated via a local linear stability…
