Fluid Acceleration in the Bulk Turbulence of Dilute Polymer Solutions
Alice M. Crawford, Nicolas Mordant, Haitao Xu +1
We report experimental measurements of Lagrangian accelerations in the bulk of intense turbulent flows of dilute polymer solutions by following tracer particles with a high-speed o…

Evolution of geometric structures in intense turbulence
Haitao Xu, Nicholas T. Ouellette, Eberhard Bodenschatz
We report measurements of the evolution of lines, planes, and volumes in an intensely turbulent laboratory flow using high-speed particle tracking. We find that the classical chara…
