Crises and chaotic scattering in hydrodynamic pilot-wave experiments

George Choueiri, Balachandra Suri, Jack Merrin +3

Theoretical foundations of chaos have have been predominantly laid out for finite-dimensional dynamical systems, such as the three-body problem in classical mechanics and the Loren…

Capturing Turbulent Dynamics and Statistics in Experiments with Unstable Periodic Orbits

Balachandra Suri, Logan Kageorge, Roman O. Grigoriev +1

In laboratory studies and numerical simulations, we observe clear signatures of unstable time-periodic solutions in a moderately turbulent quasi-two-dimensional flow. We validate t…

Heteroclinic and Homoclinic Connections in a Kolmogorov-Like Flow

Balachandra Suri, Ravi Kumar Pallantla, Michael F. Schatz +1

Recent studies suggest that unstable recurrent solutions of the Navier-Stokes equation provide new insights into dynamics of turbulent flows. In this study, we compute an extensive…

Unstable Equilibria and Invariant Manifolds in Quasi-Two-Dimensional Kolmogorov-like Flow

Balachandra Suri, Jeffrey Tithof, Roman O. Grigoriev +1

Recent studies suggest that unstable, non-chaotic solutions of the Navier-Stokes equation may provide deep insights into fluid turbulence. In this article, we present a combined ex…

Forecasting Fluid Flows Using the Geometry of Turbulence

Balachandra Suri, Jeffrey Tithof, Roman O. Grigoriev +1

The existence and dynamical role of particular unstable Navier-Stokes solutions (exact coherent structures) is revealed in laboratory studies of weak turbulence in a thin, electrom…

Bifurcations in a Quasi-Two-Dimensional Kolmogorov-Like Flow

Jeffrey Tithof, Balachandra Suri, Ravi Kumar Pallantla +2

We present a combined experimental and theoretical study of the primary and secondary instabilities in a Kolmogorov-like flow. The experiment uses electromagnetic forcing with an a…
