A novel subcritical transition to turbulence in Taylor-Couette flow with counter-rotating cylinders
Christopher J. Crowley, Michael C. Krygier, Daniel Borrero-Echeverry +2
The transition to turbulence in Taylor-Couette flow often occurs via a sequence of supercritical bifurcations to progressively more complex, yet stable, flows. We describe a subcri…

Rheoscopic Fluids in a Post-Kalliroscope World
Daniel Borrero-Echeverry, Christopher J. Crowley, Tyler P. Riddick
In rheoscopic flow visualization, the working fluid is seeded with small reflective flakes that align preferentially in the flow due to their anisotropy. This leads to directed lig…
