Transient Convective Spin-up Dynamics

, 2020
We study the formation, longevity and breakdown of convective rings during impulsive spin-up in square and cylindrical containers using direct numerical simulations.

Dynamics and symmetries of flow reversals in turbulent convection

, 2011
Based on direct numerical simulations and symmetry arguments, we show that the large-scale Fourier modes are useful tools to describe the flow structures and dynamics of flow reversals in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC).

Nonlinear Dynamics of Capacitive Charging and Desalination by Porous Electrodes

, 2009
The rapid and efficient exchange of ions between porous electrodes and aqueous solutions is important in many applications, such as electrical energy storage by super-capacitors, water desalination and purification by capacitive deionization (or ...

Large Scale Structures a Gradient Lines: the case of the Trkal Flow

, 2010
A specific asymptotic expansion at large Reynolds numbers (R)for the long wavelength perturbation of a non stationary anisotropic helical solution of the force less Navier-Stokes equations (Trkal solutions) is effectively constructed of the Beltrami type

Emergence of stochastic dynamics in plane Couette flow [PDF]

, 2016
Spatially localized states play an important role in transition to turbulence in shear flows (Kawahara, Uhlmann & van Veen, Annu. Rev. Fluid Mech. 44, 203 (2012)).

Force moments of an active particle in a complex fluid

, 2017
A generalized reciprocal theorem is formulated for the motion and hydrodynamic force moments of an active particle in an arbitrary background flow of a (weakly nonlinear) complex fluid.

Fluctuation-enhanced electric conductivity in electrolyte solutions

, 2017
In this letter we analyze the effects of an externally applied electric field on thermal fluctuations for a fluid containing charged species. We show in particular that the fluctuating Poisson-Nernst-Planck equations for charged multispecies diffusion ...

How does flow in a pipe become turbulent?

, 2007
The transition to turbulence in pipe flow does not follow the scenario familiar from Rayleigh-Benard or Taylor-Couette flow since the laminar profile is stable against infinitesimal perturbations for all Reynolds numbers.

Note on dust trapping in inviscid vortex pairs with unequal strengths

, 2010
We investigate theoretically the motion of tiny heavy passive particles transported in a plane inviscid flow consisting of two point vortices, in order to understand particle dispersion and trapping during vortex interaction.
