Dynamics on the Laminar-Turbulent Boundary and the Origin of the Maximum Drag Reduction Asymptote
Dynamical trajectories on the boundary in state space between laminar and turbulent plane channel flow—edge states—are computed for Newtonian and viscoelastic fluids. Viscoelasticity has a negligible effect on the properties of these solutions, and, at least at a low Reynolds number, their mean velo...
