Where surface physics and fluid dynamics meet: rupture of an amphiphile layer by fluid flow
Mahesh Bandi, Walter Goldburg, John Cressman +1
We investigate the fluctuating pattern created by a jet of fluid impingent upon an amphiphile-covered surface. This microscopically thin layer is initially covered with 50 m flo…
Energy flux fluctuations in a finite volume of turbulent flow
Mahesh Bandi, Walter Goldburg, John Cressman +1
The flux of turbulent kinetic energy from large to small spatial scales is measured in a small domain B of varying size R. The probability distribution function of the flux is obta…
Test of the Fluctuation Relation in lagrangian turbulence on a free surface
M. M. Bandi, J. R. Cressman, W. I. Goldburg
The statistics of lagrangian velocity divergence are studied for an assembly of particles in compressible turbulence on a free surface. Under an appropriate definition of entropy,…
Dispersion of tracer particles in a compressible flow
John R. Cressman, Walter I. Goldburg, Joerg Schumacher
The turbulent diffusion of Lagrangian tracer particles has been studied in a flow on the surface of a large tank of water and in computer simulations. The effect of flow compressib…
Hysteretic transition from laminar to vortex shedding flow in soap films
Viktor K. Horváth, J. Rob Cressman, Walter I. Goldburg +1
There are different ways for fluid flow to become turbulent, but usually many instabilities take place before that. Among these instabilities the transition from laminar flow to vo…
