Turbulence via Intermolecular Potential: Viscosity and Transition Range of the Reynolds Number
Turbulence in fluids is an ubiquitous phenomenon, characterized by spontaneous transition of a smooth, laminar flow to rapidly changing, chaotic dynamics.

Stochastic low Reynolds number swimmers [PDF]
As technological advances allow us to fabricate smaller autonomous self-propelled devices, it is clear that at some point directed propulsion could not come from pre-specified deterministic periodic deformation of the swimmer's body and we need to develop strategies to extract a net directed motion from a series of random transitions in the ...

A new friction factor relationship for fully developed pipe flow [PDF]
The friction factor relationship for high-Reynolds-number fully developed turbulent pipe flow is investigated using two sets of data from the Princeton Superpipe in the range 31×10^3 ≤ ReD ≤ 35×10^6. The constants of Prandtl’s ‘universal’ friction factor

Reynolds number dependence of scalar fluctuations in a high Schmidt number turbulent jet [PDF]
The scalar rms fluctuations in a turbulent jet were investigated experimentally, using high-resolution, laser-induced fluorescence techniques. The experiments were conducted in a high Schmidt number fluid (water), on the jet centerline, over a jet ...

Reynolds-number effects and anisotropy in transverse-jet mixing [PDF]
Experiments are described which measured concentration fields in liquid-phase strong transverse jets over the Reynolds-number range 1.0×10^3 ≤ Rej ≤ 20×10^3. Laser-induced-fluorescence measurements were made of the jet-fluid-concentration fields at a jet-

Analysis of low Reynolds number flow past Gurney flap [PDF]
The trailing edge region of a single element wing fitted with Gurney flap at low Reynoldsnumbers has been studied.The complex flow separation phenomena on airfoils with Gurney flap at low Reynolds numbershave some specific features as the separation on ...

Self-learning how to swim at low Reynolds number [PDF]
Synthetic microswimmers show great promise in biomedical applications such as drug delivery and microsurgery. Their locomotion, however, is subject to stringent constraints due to the dominance of viscous over inertial forces at low Reynolds number (Re ...

High-Reynolds-Number Flow past a Pipe
The present aim is to reveal the flow past a pipe which is immersed parallel to the mainstream at high Reynolds numbers. In a wind tunnel, we carry out (1) base-pressure measurements, (2) velocity-fluctuation measurements using a hot-wire anemometer and (
