    Genesis of Longitudinal Vortices in Near-Wall Turbulence

    Using direct numerical simulations of turbulent channel flow, we present new insight into the formation mechanism of near-wall longitudinal vortices. Instability of lifted, vortex-free low-speed streaks is sho...

    New Aspects of Vortex Dynamics Relevant to Coherent Structures in Turbulent Flows

    Vortex dynamics offers a tractable avenue for explaining the dynamics of coherent structures, which appear to be the dominant features of turbulent shear flows and are the key to predicting and controlling tur...
