Pipe flow is a prominent example among the shear flows that undergo transition to turbulence
without mediation by a linear instability of the laminar profile. Experiments on pipe flow, as …

In this work, for the first time, a dynamic electrical control of the wetting behavior of liquids on
nanostructured surfaces, which spans the entire possible range from the superhydrophobic …

Generally, the motion of fluids is smooth and laminar at low speeds but becomes highly
disordered and turbulent as the velocity increases. The transition from laminar to turbulent flow …

The linear stability of pipe flow implies that only perturbations of sufficient strength will trigger
the transition to turbulence. In order to determine this threshold in perturbation amplitude …

We demonstrate the existence of a large number of exact solutions of plane Couette flow,
which share the topology of known periodic solutions but are localized in one spatial dimension…

We apply the iterated edge-state tracking algorithm to study the boundary between laminar
and turbulent dynamics in plane Couette flow at Re= 400. Perturbations that are not strong …

Flows through pipes and channels are the most common means to transport fluids in practical
applications and equally occur in numerous natural systems. In general, the transfer of …

We measure the response of cylindrical shells to poking and identify a stability landscape,
which fully characterizes the stability of perfect shells and imperfect ones in the case where a …

Turbulent-laminar banded patterns in plane Poiseuille flow are studied via direct numerical
simulations in a tilted and translating computational domain using a parallel version of the …

We study the turbulence transition of plane Couette flow in large domains where localized
perturbations are observed to generate growing turbulent spots. Extending previous studies …
