Inertia-driven and elastoinertial viscoelastic turbulent channel flow simulated with a hybrid pseudo-spectral/finite-difference numerical scheme
Lu Zhu, Li Xi
Numerical simulation of viscoelastic flows is challenging because of the hyperbolic nature of viscoelastic constitutive equations. Despite their superior accuracy and efficiency, p…

Nonasymptotic elastoinertial turbulence for asymptotic drag reduction
Lu Zhu, Li Xi
Polymer-induced drag reduction is bounded by an asymptotic limit of maximum drag reduction (MDR). For decades, researchers have presumed that MDR reflects the convergence to an ult…
