We revisit the issue of finding proper boundary conditions for the field equations describing incompressible flow problems, for quantities like pressure or vorticity, which often do not …
The laminar–turbulent boundary Σ is the set separating initial conditions which relaminarize uneventfully from those which become turbulent. Phase space trajectories on this …

The onset of convection in a uniformly rotating vertical cylinder of height h and radius d heated from below is studied. For non-zero azimuthal wavenumber the instability is a Hopf …
The onset of shear flow turbulence is characterized by turbulent patches bounded by regions of laminar flow. At low Reynolds numbers localized turbulence relaminarizes …
The statistics of the relaminarization of localized turbulence in a pipe are examined by direct numerical simulation. As in recent experimental data [J. Peixinho and T. Mullin, Phys. Rev …
Fully three-dimensional computations of flow through a long pipe demand a huge number of degrees of freedom, making it very expensive to explore parameter space and difficult to …

An efficient and accurate numerical scheme is proposed to solve the incompressible Navier– Stokes equations in a bounded cylinder. The scheme is based on a projection method …
A dynamical system description of the transition process in shear flows with no linear instability starts with knowledge of exact coherent solutions, among them traveling waves …

A numerical study of bifurcations and stability of the steady convective flow of air in a cubical enclosure heated from below was carried out using a Galerkin spectral method. The set of …
