Elastic turbulence in a polymer solution flow
Alexander Groisman, Victor Steinberg
Turbulence is one of the most fascinating phenomena in nature and one of the biggest challenges for modern physics. It is common knowledge that a flow of a simple, Newtonian fluid…

Stretching of polymers in a random three-dimensional flow
Alexander Groisman, Victor Steinberg
Behavior of a dilute polymer solution in a random three-dimensional flow with an average shear is studied experimentally. Polymer contribution to the shear stress is found to be mo…

Solitary vortex couples in viscoelastic Couette flow
Alexander Groisman, Victor Steinberg
We report experimental observation of a localized structure, which is of a new type for dissipative systems. It appears as a solitary vortex couple ("diwhirl") in Couette flow with…
