On the repeatability of turbulence
Noé Clavier, Eberhard Bodenschatz, Florencia Falkinhoff
Turbulence has strong and seemingly random fluctuations. Assessing its repeatability is key to predicting flows in technology and nature, much of which decay as viscosity dissipate…

Turbulent properties of stationary flows in porous media
Florencia Falkinhoff, Alexandre Ponomarenko, Jean-Lou Pierson +3
In this study, we investigated the flow dynamics in a fixed bed of hydrogel beads using Particle Tracking Velocimetry to compute the velocity field in the middle of the bed for mod…

Preferential concentration of free-falling heavy particles in turbulence
Florencia Falkinhoff, Martin Obligado, Mickaël Bourgoin +1
We present a sweep-stick mechanism for heavy particles transported by a turbulent flow under the action of gravity. Direct numerical simulations show that these particles preferent…
