Network-based analysis of fluid flows: Progress and outlook

K Taira, AG Nair - Progress in Aerospace Sciences, 2022 - Elsevier
The network of interactions among fluid elements and coherent structures gives rise to the
incredibly rich dynamics of vortical flows. These interactions can be described with the use …

The presence of very-large-scale motions in wall-bounded turbulent flows is commonly
associated with their footprint in the form of the superposition of the large scales at the wall …

Turbulent transport mechanism in the roughness sublayers over idealized urban areas and its implication to street-level ventilation

R Wang, CH Liu, F Li, Z Mo - Sustainable Cities and Society, 2024 - Elsevier
Turbulence in the roughness sublayer (RSL) is inhomogeneous compared with that in the

Artificially thickened boundary layer turbulence due to trip wires of varying diameter

Z Tang, N Jiang, Z Lu, Q Zhou - Physical Review Fluids, 2024 - APS
In this paper, we study the artificially thickened boundary layer flows downstream of the
tripping configuration that consists of a set of trip wires of varying diameters. Single-point hot …

Visibility network analysis of large-scale intermittency in convective surface layer turbulence

S Chowdhuri, G Iacobello, T Banerjee - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2021 - cambridge.org
Large-scale intermittency is a widely observed phenomenon in convective surface layer
turbulence that induces non-Gaussian temperature statistics, while such a signature is not …

Revisiting “bursts” in wall-bounded turbulent flows

S Chowdhuri, T Banerjee - Physical Review Fluids, 2023 - APS
Turbulent signals are known to exhibit burstlike activities, which affect the turbulence
statistics at both large and small scales of the flow. In our study, we pursue this problem from …

Level crossings reveal organized coherent structures in a turbulent time series

S Chowdhuri, T Banerjee - Physical Review Fluids, 2024 - APS
In turbulent flows, energy production is associated with highly organized structures, known
as coherent structures. Since these structures are three dimensional, their detection remains …
