A concise review is given of astrophysically motivated experimental and theoretical research
on Taylor–Couette flow. The flows of interest rotate differentially with the inner cylinder faster …

Fluid flows between rotating concentric cylinders exhibit two distinct routes to turbulence. In
flows dominated by inner-cylinder rotation, a sequence of linear instabilities leads to …

This review examines recent theoretical developments in our understanding of turbulence in
cold, non-magnetically active, planetesimal-forming regions of protoplanetary disks that we …

The standard magnetorotational instability (SMRI) is a promising mechanism for turbulence
and rapid accretion in astrophysical disks. It is a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instability …

Recent experiments have reported a novel transition to elasto-inertial turbulence in the
Taylor–Couette flow of a dilute polymer solution. Unlike previously reported transitions, this …

We report a laboratory study of the transport of angular momentum by a turbulent flow of an
electrically conducting fluid confined in a thin disk. When the electromagnetic force applied …

Stably stratified Taylor–Couette flow has attracted much attention due to its relevance as a
canonical example of the interplay among rotation, stable stratification, shear and container …

Turbulent shear flows are abundant in geophysical and astrophysical systems and in
engineering-technology applications. They are often riddled with large-scale secondary …

The radial transport of angular momentum in accretion disk is a fundamental process in the
universe. It governs the dynamical evolution of accretion disks and has implications for …

We present nsCouette, a highly scalable software tool to solve the Navier–Stokes equations
for incompressible fluid flow between differentially heated and independently rotating …
