Roughness-induced critical phenomenon analogy for turbulent friction factor explained by a co-spectral budget model
Shuolin Li, Gabriel Katul
Drawing on an analogy to critical phenomena, it was shown that the Nikuradse turbulent friction factor () measurements in pipes of radius and wall roughness can be col…
The Role of Geographic Spreaders in Infectious Pattern Formation and Front Propagation Speeds
Shuolin Li, Craig Henriquez, Gabriel Katul
The pattern formation and spatial spread of infectious populations are investigated using a kernel-based Susceptible-Infectious-Recovered (SIR) model applicable across a wide range…
A co-spectral budget model links turbulent eddies to suspended sediment concentration in channel flows
Shuolin Li, Andrew D Bragg, Gabriel Katul
The vertical distribution of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) remains a subject of active research given its relevance to a plethora of problems in hydraulics, hydrology, eco…
Self-similar geometries within the inertial subrange of scales in boundary layer turbulence
Michael Heisel, Charitha M. de Silva, Gabriel G. Katul +1
The inertial subrange of turbulent scales is commonly reflected by a power law signature in ensemble statistics such as the energy spectrum and structure functions - both in theory…
The speed of breaking waves controls sea surface drag
Alex Ayet, Bertrand Chapron, Peter Sutherland +1
The coupling between wind-waves and atmospheric surface layer turbulence sets surface drag. This coupling is however usually represented through a roughness length. Originally sugg…
