In confined rotating convection, a strong zonal flow can develop close to the side wall with a modal structure that precesses anti-cyclonically (counter to the applied rotation) along the side wall. It is surmised that this is a robust…
Recent works on wall-bounded flows have corroborated the coexistence of wall-attached eddies, whose statistical features are predicted through Townsend's attached eddy hypothesis (AEH), and very-large-scale motions (VLSMs), which are not…
A promising and cost-effective method for numerical simulation of high Re wall-bounded flows is wall-modeled large-eddy simulation. Most wall models are formulated from the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANS). These RANS-based…
Wall-scaled (attached) eddies play a significant role in the overall drag experienced in high-Reynolds-number turbulent boundary layers (TBLs). This study aims to delve into the underlying mechanisms driving this phenomenon by dissecting…
Townsend's attached eddy hypothesis models the logarithmic region of high Reynolds number wall turbulence as a random superposition of wall-attached, geometrically self-similar eddies whose sizes obey a scale-invariant population law.…
An essential ingredient of turbulent flows is the vortex stretching mechanism, which emanates from the non-linear interaction of vorticity and strain-rate tensor and leads to formation of extreme events. We analyze the statistical…
Considering structure functions of the streamwise velocity component in a framework akin to the extended self-similarity hypothesis (ESS), de Silva \textit{et al.} (\textit{J. Fluid Mech.}, vol. 823,2017, pp. 498-510) observed that…
A new approach to turbulence simulation, based on a combination of large-eddy simulation (LES) for the whole flow and an array of non-space-filling quasi-direct numerical simulations (QDNS), which sample the response of near-wall turbulence…
Data available in literature from direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional turbulent channels by Lee & Moser (2015), Bernardini et al. (2014), Yamamoto and Tsuji (2018) and Orlandi et al. (2015) in a large range of Reynolds number…
This paper discusses the effect of rotation on the boundary layer in high Reynolds number flow over a ridge using a numerical method based on stabilised finite elements that captures steady solutions up to Reynolds number of order $10^6$.…
Turbulence problem is often considered as "the last unsolved problem of classical physics". It is due to strong interaction between velocity and/or velocity gradient fluctuations, a high Reynolds number flow is a fascinating mixture of…
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…
In Nagib, Chauhan and Monkewitz~\cite{NCM07} we concluded that nearly all available $C_f$ relations for zero-pressure-gradient boundary layers are in remarkable agreement over the entire range $Re_\theta$ $<$ O($10^8$), provided one…
Turbulent wall flows offer the most direct means for understanding the effects of boundaries and viscosity on turbulent fluctuations. Available data on mean-square fluctuations in these flows show apparent contradiction with classical…
For wall turbulence, moments of velocity fluctuations are known to be logarithmic functions of the height from the wall. This logarithmic scaling is due to the existence of a characteristic velocity and to the nonexistence of any…
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…
The large structures in the outer layer of turbulent wall flows are of great physical importance, because they contain a substantial fraction of the streamwise kinetic energy and of the Reynolds stresses. Nevertheless, the organization of…
A hallmark of fluid turbulence theory is the universal power law scaling of the velocity difference statistics between two points in space in the inertial range between the large energy injection scale and the small energy dissipation…
This work analyzes the turbulent velocity distribution in proximity of the wall using the finite-scale Lyapunov theory just presented in previous works. This theory is here applied to the steady boundary layer under the hypothesis of…
Modeling of wall-bounded turbulent flows is still an open problem in classical physics, with only modest progress made in the last few decades beyond the so-called `log law', which describes only the intermediate region in wall-bounded…
