This work builds upon recent work exploiting the notion of structured singular values to capture nonlinear interactions in the analysis of wall-bounded shear flows. In this context, the structured uncertainty can be interpreted in terms of…

We consider linear feedback flow control of the largest scales in an incompressible turbulent channel flow at a friction Reynolds number of Re$_{\tau}$ = 2000. A linear model is formed by linearizing the Navier-Stokes equations about the…

We combine resolvent-mode decomposition with techniques from convex optimization to optimally approximate velocity spectra in a turbulent channel. The velocity is expressed as a weighted sum of resolvent modes that are dynamically…

Direct numerical simulations of three-dimensional (3D) homogeneous turbulence under rapid rigid rotation are conducted to examine the predictions of resonant wave theory for both small Rossby number and large Reynolds number. The simulation…

The objective of this work is to investigate the challenges encountered in Scale-Resolving Simulations (SRS's) of turbulent wake flows driven by spatially-developing coherent structures. SRS's of practical interest are expressly intended…

We use resolvent analysis to determine an unsteady active control setup to attenuate pressure fluctuations in turbulent supersonic flow over a rectangular cavity with a length-to-depth ratio of 6 at a Mach number of 1.4 and a Reynolds…

Confined active nematics exhibit rich dynamical behavior, including spontaneous flows, periodic defect dynamics, and chaotic `active turbulence'. Here, we study these phenomena using the framework of Exact Coherent Structures, which has…

We propose a framework that elucidates the input-output characteristics of flows with complex dynamics arising from nonlinear interactions between different time scales. More specifically, we consider a periodically time-varying base flow,…

Energy transfer mechanisms for vortex shedding behind a 2D cylinder at a Reynolds number of Re=100 are investigated. We first characterize the energy balances achieved by the true cylinder flow -- both for the flow as a whole and for each…

Despite its great scientific and technological importance, wall-bounded turbulence is an unresolved problem in classical physics that requires new perspectives to be tackled. One of the key strategies has been to study interactions among…

We study a turbulent jet issuing from a cylindrical nozzle to characterise coherent structures evolving in the turbulent boundary layer. The analysis is performed using data from a large-eddy simulation of a Mach 0.4 jet. Azimuthal…

The fluid dynamics community has found success in explaining both the onset and coherent structure formation in wall-bounded turbulence through examining transient growth and pseudoresonance. Whether similar effects are important in plasmas…

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…

In this work, we study the causality of near-wall inner and outer turbulent motions. The inner motions are defined as the self-sustained near-wall cycle, and the outer motions as those living in the logarithmic layer exhibiting footprints…

The resolvent formulation of the Navier$\text{--}$Stokes equations gives a means for the characterization and prediction of features of turbulent flows$\text{---}$such as statistics, structures and their nonlinear…

Despite the nonlinear nature of turbulence, there is evidence that part of the energy-transfer mechanisms sustaining wall turbulence can be ascribed to linear processes. The different scenarios stem from linear stability theory and comprise…

We analyze the data stemming from a forced incompressible hydrodynamic simulation on a grid of 2048^3 regularly spaced points, with a Taylor Reynolds number of Re~1300. The forcing is given by the Taylor-Green flow, which shares…

The physical fidelity of turbulence models can benefit from a partial resolution of fluctuations, but doing so often comes with an increase in computational cost. To explore this trade-off in the context of wall-bounded flows, this paper…

A new experimental investigation of decaying turbulence generated by a low-blockage space-filling fractal square grid is presented. We find agreement with previous works by Seoud & Vassilicos (2007) and Mazellier & Vassilicos (2010) but…

Wall-bounded turbulence is characterized by coherent, worm-like structures such as hairpin vortices. The attached-eddy model provides a successful statistical framework for the log-law region, yet the complex geometry and multiscale nature…
