We investigate theoretically the near-wall region in elastic turbulence of a dilute polymer
solution in the limit of large Weissenberg number. As has been established experimentally …

Turbulence in dilute polymer solutions when polymers are strongly stretched by the flow is
investigated. We establish power-law spectra of velocity, that are not associated with a flux …

The small-scale statistics of homogeneous isotropic turbulence of dilute polymer solutions is
investigated by means of direct numerical simulations of a simplified viscoelastic fluid model …

The dynamics of dilute polymer solutions is investigated in wall turbulent flow. A realistic
turbulent flow field is obtained by a fully coupled direct numerical simulation of a drag …

We study the deformation of flexible polymers whose contour length lies in the inertial range
of a homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flow. By using the elastic dumbbell model and a …

Direct numerical simulation of polymer-laden turbulent flow is performed for the investigation

By tracking small particles in the bulk of an intensely turbulent laboratory flow, we study the
effect of long-chain polymers on the Eulerian structure functions. We find that the structure …

The interaction of polymers with turbulent shear flows is examined. We focus on the structure
of the elastic stress tensor, which is proportional to the polymer conformation tensor. We …
