題目: Plane Couette flow at the laminar-turbulent transition
概要：
Though the mechanisms involved in the transition to turbulence in wall
flows are now better understood [1], statistical properties of the
transition itself are yet unsatisfactorily assessed. Poiseuille pipe
flow (Ppf) and plane Couette flow (pCf), both lacking linear
instability modes, have attracted considerable interest recently [2.6].
These flows become turbulent through the nucleation and growth or
decay of turbulent domains that, on the one hand, can be interpreted
within the framework of low dimensional dynamical systems theory as
transient chaotic states associated to stochastic repellors. On the
other hand, limitations due to finite observation times and/or system
size may play a role and correlative spatiotemporal processes cannot
be ruled out in the transitional regime. In the pCf case, the problem
has been explored via numerical simulations of a model focusing on the
in-plane (x, z) space dependence of a few velocity amplitudes with
reduced cross-stream (y) dependence [6]. The model is closer to Navier. Stokes
equations than previously considered coupled map reductions and
there is evidence that it is well suited to the low-R transitional
range. After a brief review of experimental results [5], I will
present my most recent findings, discuss them in view of those for Ppf
[2,4], and attempt to make a connection with the theory of first order
phase transitions [7], as suggested long ago by Y. Pomeau [8].
