The comparison of the results of direct numerical simulations of isotropic turbulence of
Newtonian and viscoelastic fluid provides evidence that viscoelasticity modifies qualitatively …

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 …

We report the scaling relations between the exponents of the power-law decays of kinetic
and elastic energies, pressure, as well as torque fluctuations in elastic turbulence (ET). The …

Direct numerical simulations of statistically steady homogeneous isotropic turbulence in
viscoelastic fluids described by the FENE-P model, such as those laden with polymers, are …

Elastic turbulence is the chaotic fluid motion resulting from elastic instabilities due to the
addition of polymers in small concentrations at very small Reynolds (Re) numbers. Our …

The turbulent energy cascade in dilute polymers solution is addressed here by considering
a direct numerical simulation of homogeneous isotropic turbulence of a FENE-P fluid in a …

Direct numerical simulations of statistically steady homogeneous isotropic turbulence in
viscoelastic fluids described by the FENE-P model are presented. Emphasis is given to large …

Following our first report (A Groisman and V Steinberg 2000 Nature 405 53), we present an
extended account of experimental observations of elasticity-induced turbulence in three …

We investigate theoretically and numerically the effect of polymer additives on two-
dimensional turbulence by means of a viscoelastic model. We provide compelling evidence …

Elastic turbulence is a chaotic regime that emerges in polymer solutions at low Reynolds
numbers. A common way to ensure stability in numerical simulations of polymer solutions is …
