A mechanism for streamwise localisation of nonlinear waves in shear flows
(2015-09-01)
Article
Open AccessWe present the complete unfolding of streamwise localisation in a paradigm of extended shear flows, namely two-dimensional plane Poiseuille flow. Exact solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations are computed numerically and ... -
Active flow control optimisation on SD7003 airfoil at pre and post-stall angles of attack using synthetic jets
(2021-06-10)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe use of Active Flow Control (AFC) technologies to modify the forces acting on streamlined bodies is one of the most active research fields in aerodynamics. For each particular application, finding the optimum set of AFC ... -
Bone tissue properties measurement by reference point indentation in glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis
(2015-09-01)
Article
Open AccessGlucocorticoids, widely used in inflammatory disorders, rapidly increase bone fragility and, therefore, fracture risk. However, common bone densitometry measurements are not sensitive enough to detect these changes. Moreover, ... -
Characterization of three-dimensional vortical structures in the wake past a circular cylinder in the transitional regime
(2020)
Article
Open AccessThe flow past a circular cylinder in the transitional regime at Re = 2000 has been thoroughly investigated via well resolved direct numerical simulation with a spectral element code. Spanwise periodic boundary conditions ... -

Edge state in pipe flow experiments
(2012-05-21)
Article
Open AccessRecent numerical studies suggest that in pipe and related shear flows, the region of phase space separating laminar from turbulent motion is organized by a chaotic attractor, called an edge state, which mediates the ... -
El enigma de Osborne Reynolds
(2010-03-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyAunque se sigue desconociendo por qué un fl uido conducido por una tubería se vuelve turbulento, se ha dado un paso importante hacia la resolución del problema, formulado hace ya más de 125 años -
El problema de Reynolds: transició subcrítica a la turbulència
(2008-12-30)
Article
Open AccessFa 125 anys, Osborne Reynolds, matemàtic i professor d’enginyeria de la Universitat de Manchester, va publicar el seu treball experimental i teòric sobre la transició a la turbulència de fluids en moviment dins de canonades. ... -
Emergence of spatio-temporal dynamics from exact coherent solutions in pipe flow
(2016-08-12)
Article
Open AccessTurbulent-laminar patterns are ubiquitous near transition in wall-bounded shear flows. Despite recent progress in describing their dynamics in analogy to non-equilibrium phase transitions, there is no theory explaining ... -
Una Experiencia de unificación de asignaturas para desplegar PBL (y las quejas que originó)
(Universitat Jaume I. Escola Superior de Tecnologia i Ciències Experimentals, 2013-07-10)
Conference report
Open AccessEn esta ponencia se describen los aspectos esenciales de una experiencia de unificación de parejas de asignaturas con el objetivo de crear un escenario más adecuado para el despliegue de Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos. ... -
Extensional channel flow revisited: a dynamical systems perspective
(2017-06-07)
Article
Open AccessExtensional self-similar flows in a channel are explored numerically for arbitrary stretching–shrinking rates of the confining parallel walls. The present analysis embraces time integrations, and continuations of steady ... -
Fluidic oscillators, feedback channel effect under compressible flow conditions
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-09-01)
Article
Open AccessFluidic oscillators are often used to modify the forces fluid generates on any given bluff body; they can also be used as flow, pressure or acoustic sensors, with each application requiring a particular oscillator ... -
Fold-pitchfork bifurcation for maps with Z(2) symmetry in pipe flow
(2013-07-11)
Article
Open AccessThis study aims to provide a better understanding of recently identified transition scenarios exhibited by traveling wave solutions in pipe flow. This particular family of solutions are invariant under certain reflectional ... -
From travelling waves to mild chaos: a supercritical bifurcation cascade in pipe flow
(2012-10-25)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe study numerically a succession of transitions in pipe Poiseuille flow that leads from simple travelling waves to waves with chaotic time-dependence. The waves at the origin of the bifurcation cascade possess a shift-reflect ... -
Fully nonlinear mode competition in magnetised Taylor-Couette flow
(2020-08-25)
Article
Open AccessWe study the nonlinear mode competition of various spiral instabilities in magnetised Taylor-Couette flow. The resulting finite-amplitude mixed-mode solution branches are tracked using the annular-parallelogram periodic ... -
Instability mechanisms and transition scenarios of spiral turbulence in Taylor-Couette flow
