Growth dynamics of turbulent spots in plane Couette flow
Marie Couliou, Romain Monchaux
We experimentally and numerically investigate the temporal aspects of turbulent spots spreading in a plane Couette flow for transitional Reynolds numbers between 300 and 450. Spot…

How does turbulence spread in plane Couette flows?
Marie Couliou, Romain Monchaux
We investigate the growth in the spanwise direction of turbulent spots invading a laminar flow in a plane Couette flow. Direct Numerical Simulation is used to track the nucleation…

Large scale flows in transitional plane Couette flow: a key ingredient of the spot growth mechanism
M. Couliou, R. Monchaux
Using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) in a new experimental plane Couette flow, we investigate the dynamics of turbulent patches invading formerly laminar flows. We evidence exper…
