Identifying invariant solutions of wall-bounded three-dimensional shear flows using robust adjoint-based variational techniques
Omid Ashtari, Tobias M. Schneider
Invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations play an important role in the spatiotemporally chaotic dynamics of turbulent shear flows. Despite the significance of these solut…
Interaction and breakup of droplet pairs in a microchannel Y-junction
Simon Schütz, Jian Wei Khor, Sindy K. Y. Tang +1
We combine theory, numerical simulation and experiments to investigate the breakup of two identical droplets entering a Y-junction with controlled spatial offset by which the secon…
Self-sustained large-scale motions in the asymptotic suction boundary layer
Sajjad Azimi, Carlo Cossu, Tobias M. Schneider
Large-scale motions, also known as superstructures, are dynamically relevant coherent structures in a wall-bounded turbulent flow, that span the entire domain in wall-normal direct…
Modified snaking in plane Couette flow with wall-normal suction
Sajjad Azimi, Tobias M. Schneider
A specific family of spanwise-localised invariant solutions of plane Couette flow exhibits homoclinic snaking, a process by which spatially localised invariant solutions of a nonli…
Periodic orbits exhibit oblique stripe patterns in plane Couette flow
Florian Reetz, Tobias M. Schneider
Spatio-temporally chaotic dynamics of transitional plane Couette flow may give rise to regular turbulent-laminar stripe patterns with a large-scale pattern wavelength and an obliqu…
Self-similar invariant solution in the near-wall region of a turbulent boundary layer at asymptotically high Reynolds numbers
Sajjad Azimi, Tobias M. Schneider
At sufficiently high Reynolds numbers, shear-flow turbulence close to a wall acquires universal properties. When length and velocity are rescaled by appropriate characteristic scal…
