A Two-Time-Scale Turbulence Model and Its Application in Free Shear Flows
A novel three-equation turbulence model has been proposed as a potential solution to overcome some of the issues related to the k–ε models of turbulence.

Physical modelling of colloidal slurry flows [PDF]
The study looks at the rheology and pipeline flow properties of colloidal suspensions dispersed in electrolytes of different concentration and type. Fuso silica spheres (0.8pm) form the dispersed phase of the suspension, and KN03, KCI electrolytes the ...

Plasmakristall‐4 Experiment: 10 Years of Operation in Orbit
ABSTRACT Plasmakristall‐4 (PK‐4) is a microgravity complex plasma laboratory operated for 10 years on board the International Space Station. Its main purpose is the particle‐resolved investigation of generic condensed matter phenomena using strongly coupled suspensions of microparticles immersed in low‐pressure gas‐discharge plasmas.

The structure of turbulent shear flow [PDF]
A theoretical investigation is made of the mixing layer between two streams. The work is divided into four sections. The first involves the solution of the mean problem of laminar and turbulent mixing. The equations of motion are written in terms of a similarity variable. An eddy viscosity hypothesis is made to describe the shear stresses.

Rossby-wave turbulence in a rapidly rotating sphere [PDF]
We use a quasi-geostrophic numerical model to study the turbulence of rotating flows in a sphere, with realistic Ekman friction and bulk viscous dissipation.

Evaluation of a Buoyancy and Shear Based Mixing Length for a Turbulence Scheme
We present a new diagnostic mixing length for a turbulence scheme based on a prognostic equation for the turbulence kinetic energy. The formulation adds a local vertical wind shear term to the non-local buoyancy-based mixing length currently used in the ...

Shear instabilities in shallow-water magnetohydrodynamics [PDF]
The interaction of horizontal shear flows and magnetic fields in stably stratified layers is central to many problems in astrophysical fluid dynamics.

Mean flow of turbulent–laminar patterns in plane Couette flow [PDF]
A turbulent–laminar banded pattern in plane Couette flow is studied numerically. This pattern is statistically steady, is oriented obliquely to the streamwise direction, and has a very large wavelength relative to the gap. The mean flow, averaged in time

Coupling Fluid Neutrals to Gyrokinetic Plasma Dynamics for Edge and SOL Turbulence Simulations
ABSTRACT Accurate modeling of turbulent transport in magnetic confinement fusion devices requires extending first‐principles gyrokinetic simulations from the core to the edge and scrape‐off layer (SOL), where additional physics—particularly plasma–neutrals interactions—must be included.

Acoustic‐driven surface cleaning with millimeter‐sized bubbles at translational resonance
Time‐lapse visualization comparing bubble trajectories. The top panel (0 Hz) shows a bubble's linear path under no acoustic forcing, while the bottom panel (50 Hz) demonstrates the oscillatory motion induced by acoustic waves at a resonance mode. This mechanism holds promising potential for applications such as surface cleaning.
