Reynolds proposed that after sufficiently long times, the flow in a pipe should settle to a steady condition: below a critical Reynolds number, flows should (regardless of initial conditions) always return to laminar, while above, eddying…
Turbulence is a widely observed state of fluid flows, characterized by complex, nonlinear interactions between motions across a broad spectrum of length and time scales. While turbulence is ubiquitous, from teacups to planetary atmospheres,…
The complex flow features resulting from the laminar-turbulent transition (LTT) in a sudden expansion pipe flow, with expansion ratio of 1:2 subjected to an inlet vortex perturbation is investigated by means of direct numerical simulations…
This study focuses on a parametric study of the laminar fast transient flow of non-Newtonian fluids through helical pipes. Classical simulations of fluid hammer do not deal with the pipeline helicity and non-Newtonian characteristics of the…
This study explores the dynamics of dispersed bubbly turbulent flow in a channel using interface-resolved direct numerical simulation (DNS) with an efficient Coupled Level-Set Volume-of-Fluid (CLSVOF) solver. The influence of number of…
Magnetic reconnection requires, at least locally, a non-ideal plasma response. In collisionless space and astrophysical plasmas, turbulence could permit this instead of the too rare binary collisions. We investigated the influence of…
Lagrangian stochastic models are widely used to predict and analyze turbulent dispersion in complex environments, such as in various terrestrial and marine canopy flows. However, due to a lack of empirical data, it is still not understood…
In this article, the extensional flow and viscosity and the converging-diverging geometry were examined as the basis of the peculiar viscoelastic behavior in porous media. The modified Bautista-Manero model, which successfully describes…
Biological membranes are host to proteins and molecules which may form domain-like structures resulting in spatially-varying material properties. Vesicles with such heterogeneous membranes can exhibit intricate shapes at equilibrium and…
A turbulent mean profile for pipe flow is prescribed which closely matches experimental observations. The nature of perturbations superimposed upon this profile is then considered. Optimal growth calculations predict two distinct classes of…
Following the recent observation that turbulent pipe flow can be relaminarised by a relatively simple modification of the mean velocity profile, we here carry out a quantitative experimental investigation of this phenomenon. Our study…
We investigate the rheological characteristics of human blood plasma in shear and elongational flows. While we can confirm a Newtonian behavior in shear flow within experimental resolution, we find a viscoelastic behavior of blood plasma in…
We propose a validated fluid-structure interaction simulation framework based on strip methods for the vortex-induced vibration of a flexible pipe. The numerical results are compared with the experimental data from three previous steady…
We study the shearing rheology of dense suspensions of elastic capsules, taking aggregation-free red blood cells as a physiologically relevant example. Particles are non-Brownian and interact only via hydrodynamics and short-range repulsive…
The transition of the flow in a duct of square cross-section is studied. Like in the similar case of the pipe flow, the motion is linearly stable for all Reynolds numbers; this flow is thus a good candidate to investigate the 'bypass' path…
Accurate prediction of the transition from laminar flow to turbulence remains an unresolved challenge despite its importance for understanding a variety of environmental, biological, and industrial phenomena. Well over a century of…
We investigate the stability of stratified fluid layers undergoing homogeneous and periodic tidal deformation. We first introduce a local model which allows to study velocity and buoyancy fluctuations in a Lagrangian domain periodically…
This study examines the relaminarization of turbulent puffs in pipe flow using highly resolved direct numerical simulations at Reynolds numbers of 1880, 1900, and 1920. The exponential decay of the total energy of streamwise velocity…
Direct numerical simulations of turbulent flow in a channel with one rigid and one viscoelastic wall are performed. An Eulerian-Eulerian model is adopted with a level-set approach to identify the fluid-compliant material interface. Focus is…
We analyze the creeping flow generated by a spherical particle moving through a viscous fluid with nematic directional order, in which momentum diffusivity is anisotropic and which opposes resistance to bending. Specifically, we provide…
