The scaling of different features of stream-wise normal stress profiles $\langle uu\rangle^+(y^+)$ in turbulent wall-bounded flows, in particular in truly parallel flows, such as channel and pipe flows, is the subject of a long running…
Intermittent turbulent-laminar patterns characterize the transition to turbulence in pipe, plane Couette and plane channel flows. The time evolution of turbulent-laminar bands in plane channel flow is studied via direct numerical…
Turbulent-laminar banded patterns in plane Poiseuille flow are studied via direct numerical simulations in a tilted and translating computational domain using a parallel version of the pseudospectral code Channelflow. 3D visualizations via…
Although the roll-streak (R-S) is fundamentally involved in the dynamics of wall-turbulence, the physical mechanism responsible for its formation and maintenance remains controversial. In this work we investigate the dynamics maintaining…
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…
Passive scalar transport in turbulent channel flow subject to spanwise system rotation is studied by direct numerical simulations. The Reynolds number $Re = U_b h/\nu$ is fixed at $20\,000$ and the rotation number $Ro = 2 \Omega h/U_b$ is…
In technical applications, more than 90\% of the energy required to pump the fluids through pipes is dissipated by turbulence near the wall. In this respect, streamwise traveling waves of wall blowing and suction have been used to…
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…
The paper investigates the dissipation tensor $\varepsilon_{ij}$ in wall turbulence. Available DNS data are examined to illustrate the differences in the anisotropy of the dissipation tensor $\varepsilon_{ij}$ with respect to the anisotropy…
Using the Lagrangian transport of momentum, the Reynolds stress can be expressed in terms of basic turbulence parameters. The Reynolds stress gradient represents the lateral transport of stream-wise momentum, balanced by the u2 transport,…
This article aims to make a detailed analysis of co-flowing plane Couette flows. Particularly, the variation of flow quantities from the turbulent to non-turbulent region is studied. While the enstrophy exhibits a sharp jump, the other…
In this work, we study the scale characteristics of the log- and outer-region motions and structures in subsonic and supersonic turbulence. To this end, a series of direct numerical simulations of the compressible turbulent channel flow at…
Waves of spanwise velocity imposed at the walls of a plane turbulent channel flow are studied by Direct Numerical Simulations. We consider sinusoidal waves of spanwise velocity which vary in time and are modulated in space along the…
We studied flow organization and heat transfer properties in mixed turbulent convection within Poiseuille-Rayleigh-B\'enard channels subjected to temporally modulated sinusoidal wall temperatures. Three-dimensional direct numerical…
The decay of homogeneous isotropic turbulence in a variable viscosity fluid with a viscosity ratio up to 15 is analyzed by means of highly resolved direct numerical simulations (DNS) at low Reynolds numbers. The question addressed by the…
Turbulence -- ubiquitous in nature and engineering alike [1-5] -- is traditionally viewed as an intrinsically inertial phenomenon, emerging only when the Reynolds number (Re), which quantifies the ratio of inertial to dissipative forces…
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 velocity fluctuations in a spherical shell arising from sinusoidal perturbations of a Keplerian shear flow with a free amplitude parameter \epsilon are studied numerically by means of fully 3D nonlinear simulations. The investigations…
Townsend (1961) introduced the concept of active and inactive motions for wall-bounded turbulent flows, where the active motions are solely responsible for producing the Reynolds shear stress, the key momentum transport term in these flows.…
Abrupt transition to turbulence may occur in pipe and channel flows at moderate flow rates, an unexpected event according to linear stability theory, and has been an open problem in fluid dynamics for more than a century. Extensive…
