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…
We study the behaviour of the streamwise velocity variance in turbulent wall-bounded flows using a DNS database of pipe flow up to $Re_{\tau} \approx 12000$. The analysis of the spanwise spectra in the viscous near-wall region strongly…
The variance and spectra of wall-normal velocities are investigated for direct numerical simulations of turbulent flow in a channel, pipe, and zero-pressure-gradient boundary layer across a decade of friction Reynolds numbers. Spectra along…
The behavior of velocity fluctuations near a wall has long fascinated the turbulence community, because the prevalent theoretical framework of an attached-eddy hierarchy appears to predict infinite intensities as the Reynolds number tends…
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…
Very recently, a defect model which depicts the growth tendency of the near-wall peak of the streamwise turbulence intensity has been developed (Chen $\&$ Sreenivasan, J. Fluid Mech. (2021), vol.908, R3). Based on the finiteness of the…
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…
A new scaling is derived that yields a Reynolds number independent profile for all components of the Reynolds stress in the near-wall region of wall bounded flows, including channel, pipe and boundary layer flows. The scaling demonstrates…
We develop a new methodology to assess the streamwise inclination angles (SIAs) of the wall-attached eddies populating the logarithmic region with a given wall-normal height. To remove the influences originating from other scales on the SIA…
Turbulent signals are known to exhibit burst-like activities, which affect the turbulence statistics at both large and small scales of the flow. In our study, we pursue this problem from the perspective of an event-based framework, where…
Processing the data from a large variety of zero-pressure-gradient boundary layer flows shows that the Reynolds-number-dependent scaling law, which the present authors obtained earlier for pipes, gives an accurate description of the…
The logarithmic law for the mean velocity in turbulent boundary layers has long provided a valuable and robust reference for comparison with theories, models, and large-eddy simulations (LES) of wall-bounded turbulence. More recently,…
In furtherance of our earlier work (Chen \& Sreenivasan, {\it J. Fluid Mech.} {\bf 908}, 2021, p. R3; {\bf 933}, 2022, p. A20 -- together referred to as CS hereafter), we present a self-consistent Reynolds number asymptotics for wall-normal…
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…
This study shows that the turbulent velocities most strongly correlated with outer-scaled ($\delta$-scaled) wall-pressure fluctuations beneath a zero-pressure-gradient boundary layer reside within the logarithmic region. Even though…
This paper examines how increasing the value of the Reynolds number $Re$ affects the ability of spanwise-forcing techniques to yield turbulent skin-friction drag reduction. The considered forcing is based on the streamwise-travelling waves…
A direct numerical simulation of incompressible channel flow at $Re_\tau$ = 5186 has been performed, and the flow exhibits a number of the characteristics of high Reynolds number wall-bounded turbulent flows. For example, a region where the…
We study laminar, transitional and turbulent flow in wavy pipes using direct numerical simulations for bulk Reynolds numbers between 1-5300. Flow behaviors are analyzed in terms of the friction factor f and mean velocity statistics for…
We perform direct numerical simulations of an unstably stratified turbulent channel flow to address the effects of buoyancy on the boundary layer dynamics and mean field quantities. We systematically span a range of parameters in the space…
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…
