Crises and chaotic scattering in hydrodynamic pilot-wave experiments

George Choueiri, Balachandra Suri, Jack Merrin +3

Theoretical foundations of chaos have have been predominantly laid out for finite-dimensional dynamical systems, such as the three-body problem in classical mechanics and the Loren…

Experimental observation of the origin and structure of elasto-inertial turbulence

George H. Choueiri, Jose M. Lopez, Atul Varshney +2

Turbulence generally arises in shear flows if velocities and hence inertial forces are sufficiently large. In striking contrast, viscoelastic fluids can exhibit disordered motion e…

Transition to turbulence in particle laden flows

Nishchal Agrawal, George H. Choueiri, Björn Hof

Suspended particles can alter the properties of fluids and in particular also affect the transition from laminar to turbulent flow. In the present experimental study, we investigat…

Dynamics of viscoelastic pipe flow in the maximum drag reduction limit

Jose M. Lopez, George H. Choueiri, Bjoern Hof

Polymer additives can substantially reduce the drag of turbulent flows and the upper limit, the so called "maximum drag reduction" (MDR) asymptote is universal, i.e. independent of…

Exceeding the asymptotic limit of polymer drag reduction

George H. Choueiri, Jose M. Lopez, Bjoern Hof

The drag of turbulent flows can be drastically decreased by addition of small amounts of high molecular weight polymers. While drag reduction initially increases with polymer conce…
