Edge states for the turbulence transition in the asymptotic suction boundary layer

Tobias Schneider, Tobias Klaus Kreilos

We demonstrate the existence of an exact invariant solution to the Navier-Stokes equations for the asymptotic suction boundary layer. The identified periodic orbit with a very long period of several thousand advective time units is found as a local dynamic ...

Sequencing by Hybridization of Long Targets

Tobias Schneider, Yu Qin

Sequencing by Hybridization (SBH) reconstructs an n-long target DNA sequence from its biochemically determined l-long subsequences. In the standard approach, the length of a uniformly random sequence that can be unambiguously reconstructed is limited to n ...

Algorithm for a Microfluidic Assembly Line

Tobias Schneider

Microfluidic technology has revolutionized the control of flows at small scales giving rise to new possibilities for assembling complex structures on the microscale. We analyze different possible algorithms for assembling arbitrary structures, and demonstr ...

On the measured current in electrospinning

Tobias Schneider

The origin and scaling of the current measured during steady electrospinning of polymer solutions in organic solvents are considered. For a specified electric field strength E, flow rate Q, and conductivity K, the total measured current is shown empiricall ...

Folded Edge of Turbulence in a Pipe

Tobias Schneider

The results of an experimental investigation into the threshold boundary between laminar and disordered pipe flow are presented. Complex features have been uncovered using a highly refined experimental approach where an intermediate periodic state forms an ...

Eliminating Turbulence in Spatially Intermittent Flows

Tobias Schneider

Flows through pipes and channels are the most common means to transport fluids in practical applications and equally occur in numerous natural systems. In general, the transfer of fluids is energetically far more efficient if the motion is smooth and lamin ...

Localized edge states nucleate turbulence in extended plane {Couette} cells

Tobias Schneider

We study the turbulence transition of plane Couette flow in large domains where localized perturbations are observed to generate growing turbulent spots. Extending previous studies on the boundary between laminar and turbulent dynamics we determine invaria ...

Localized edge states for the transition to turbulence in shear flows

Tobias Schneider

In parallel shear flows like pipe flow or plane Couette flow, laminar and turbulent dynamics coexist. The boundary between the two types of dynamics shows up clearly in studies that monitor the life time of a perturbation, i.e. the time it takes to relamin ...

Basin boundary, edge of chaos and edge state in a two-dimensional model

Tobias Schneider

In shear flows like pipe flow and plane Couette flow there is an extended range of parameters where linearly stable laminar flow coexists with a transient turbulent dynamics. When increasing the amplitude of a perturbation on top of the laminar flow, one n ...
