Polymers in turbulence: stretching statistics and the role of extreme strain-rate fluctuations
Jason R. Picardo, Emmanuel L. C. VI M. Plan, Dario Vincenzi
Polymers in a turbulent flow are stretched out by the fluctuating velocity gradient; the stationary probability distribution function (p.d.f.) of extensions has a power-law tai…
Emergence of chaos in a viscous solution of rods
Emmanuel L. C. VI M. Plan, Stefano Musacchio, Dario Vincenzi
It is shown that the addition of small amounts of microscopic rods in a viscous fluid at low Reynolds number causes a significant increase of the flow resistance. Numerical simulat…
Lyapunov dimension of elastic turbulence
Emmanuel Lance Christopher VI Medillo Plan, Anupam Gupta, Dario Vincenzi +1
Low-Reynolds-number polymer solutions exhibit a chaotic behaviour known as 'elastic turbulence' when the Weissenberg number exceeds a critical value. The two-dimensional Oldroyd-B…
Tumbling of a Brownian particle in an extensional flow
Emmanuel Lance Christopher VI Medillo Plan, Dario Vincenzi
The phenomenon of tumbling of microscopic objects is commonly associated with shear flows. We address the question of whether tumbling can also occur in stretching-dominated flows.…
