Planetary turbulent flows are observed to self-organize into large scale structures such as zonal jets and coherent vortices. One of the simplest models of planetary turbulence is obtained by considering a barotropic flow on a beta-plane…
Direct numerical simulations of turbulent suspension flows are carried out with the Force-Coupling Method in plane Couette and pressure-driven channel configurations. Dilute to moderately concentrated suspensions of neutrally buoyant…
Non-cooperative Fisher-KPP systems with space-time periodic coefficients are motivated for instance by models for structured populations evolving in periodic environments. This paper is concerned with entire solutions describing the…
We study the nonlinear stability of plane Couette and Poiseuille flows with the Lyapunov second method by using the classical L2-energy. We prove that the streamwise perturbations are L2-energy stable for any Reynolds number. This…
We study the dynamics of shear-band formation and evolution using a simple rheological model. The description couples the local structure and viscosity to the applied shear stress. We consider in detail the Couette geometry, where the model…
In particle-laden turbulent flows the turbulence in carrier fluid phase gets affected by the dispersed particle phase for volume fraction above $10^{-4}$ and hence reverse coupling or two-way coupling becomes relevant in that volume…
We study the dynamics of localised perturbations in plane Couette flow with periodic lateral boundary conditions. For small Reynolds number and small amplitude of the initial state the perturbation decays on a viscous time scale $t \propto…
We prove that the flow map associated to a model equation for surface waves of moderate amplitude in shallow water is not uniformly continuous in the Sobolev space $H^s$ with $s>3/2$. The main idea is to consider two suitable sequences of…
We study the asymptotic behavior of the forced linear Euler and nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations close to Couette flow in a periodic channel. As our main result we show that for smooth time-periodic forcing linear inviscid damping…
The main part of this contribution to the special issue of EJM-B/Fluids dedicated to Patrick Huerre outlines the problem of the subcritical transition to turbulence in wall-bounded flows in its historical perspective with emphasis on plane…
We prove stability for arbitrarily long times of the zero solution for the so-called $\beta$-plane equation, which describes the motion of a two-dimensional inviscid, ideal fluid under the influence of the Coriolis effect. The Coriolis…
We establish the well-posedness of the nonlocal mean curvature flow of order ${\alpha\in(0,1)}$ for periodic graphs on $\mathbb{R}^n$ in all subcritical little H\"older spaces ${\rm h}^{1+\beta}(\mathbb{T}^n)$ with $\beta\in(0,1)$.…
This article presents direct numerical simulations of the growth of turbulent spots in the transitional regime of plane Couette flow. A quantitative description of the growth process and of the detail of the quadrupolar flow around the spot…
The dynamics in the onset of a Hagen-Poiseuille flow of an incompressible liquid in a channel of circular cross section is well-studied theoretically. We use an eigenfunction expansion in a Hilbert space formalism to generalize the results…
We show that, given a sufficiently regular forcing, the solution of the two-dimensional Navier--Stokes equations on the periodic $\beta$-plane (i.e.\ with the Coriolis force varying as $f_0+\beta y$) will become nearly zonal: with the…
Direct numerical simulations of a Couette Poiseuille flow were performed near the transition to turbulence to investigate the nonlinear relationship between streak waviness and rolls. This relationship is a key step in Waleffe's model for a…
We numerically compute the flow of an electrically conducting fluid in a Taylor-Couette geometry where the rotation rates of the inner and outer cylinders satisfy $\Omega_o/\Omega_i=(r_o/r_i)^{-3/2}$. In this quasi-Keplerian regime a…
Regular patterns of turbulent and laminar fluid motion arise in plane Couette flow near the lowest Reynolds number for which turbulence can be sustained. We study these patterns using an extension of the minimal flow unit approach to…
Flows in fluid layers are ubiquitous in industry, geophysics and astrophysics. Large-scale flows in thin layers can be considered two-dimensional (2d) with bottom friction added. Here we find that the properties of such flows depend…
We investigate the linear stability of a thin, suspended, annular film of conducting fluid with a voltage difference applied between its inner and outer edges. For a sufficiently large voltage, such a film is unstable to radially-driven…
