Polymer stress tensor in turbulent shear flows.
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 examine this object in turbulent flows of increasing complexity. First is isotropic turbulence, then anisotropic (but homogenous) shear turbulence, and finally wall bounded turbulence. The main result of this pap...
متن کاملInternal gravity waves generated by a turbulent bottom Ekman layer
Internal gravity waves excited by the turbulent motions in a bottom Ekman layer are examined using large-eddy simulation. The outer flow is steady and uniformly stratified while the density gradient is set to zero at the flat lower wall. After initializing with a linear density profile, a mixed layer forms near the wall separated from the ambient stratification by a pycnocline. Two types of int...
متن کاملFluctuations of Turbulent Bed Shear Stress
With the assumption that the bed shear stress fluctuates in a lognormal fashion, the probability density function (pdf) of the standardised bed shear stress is derived as a function of the relative shear stress intensity. The pdf is more skewed with larger relative intensities, but approaches a Gaussian function when the relative intensity is small. The computed pdf agrees well with the reporte...
متن کاملBottom Shear Stress Formulations to Compute Sediment Fluxes in Accelerated Skewed Waves
As waves travel and shoal towards a beach, their surface elevation becomes peaky (sharp crests) and asymmetric relative to the vertical. Within a wave period, the corresponding orbital velocity near the bottom shows a similar (time) variation and it is recognized that these nonlinearities are responsible for sediment transport. The resulting wave-induced bottom shear stresses are required for m...
متن کاملStress-structure relation in dense colloidal melts under forward and instantaneous reversal of the shear.
A dense supercooled colloidal melt in forward shear from a quiescent state shows overshoot in the shear stress at 10% strain with an unchanged fluid structure at equal stress before and after overshoot. In addition, we find an overshoot in the normal stress with a monotonic increase in the osmotic pressure at an identical strain. The first and second normal stresses become comparable in magnitu...
