An Alternative Scaling for Roughness Transitions in Turbulent Flows: The Role of the Internal Boundary Layer
Justin P. Cooke, George I. Park, Douglas J. Jerolmack +1
When turbulent boundary layer flows encounter abrupt roughness changes, an Internal Boundary Layer (IBL) forms. Equilibrium theory breaks down in the nonequilibrium IBL, which may…
Enhancement of bacterial rheotaxis in non-Newtonian fluids
Bryan O. Torres Maldonado, Albane Théry, Ran Tao +3
Bacteria often exhibit upstream swimming, which can cause the contamination of biomedical devices and the infection of organs including the urethra or lungs. This process, called r…
Athermal granular creep in a quenched sandpile
Nakul S. Deshpande, Paulo E. Arratia, Douglas J. Jerolmack
Creep is a generic descriptor of slow motions -- in the context of materials, it describes quasi-static deformation of a solid when subjected to stresses below the global yield, at…
