I’m glad they finally cleared that up........................

Doctor’s use this to determine blood pressure. The pressure for when blood flow is smooth and when it becomes turbulent

Pffft. Every injection mold tech knows this.

For decades, physicists, engineers and mathematicians have failed to explain a remarkable phenomenon in fluid mechanics: the natural tendency of turbulence in fluids to move from disordered chaos to perfectly parallel patterns of oblique turbulent bands. This transition from a state of chaotic turbulence to a highly structured pattern was observed by many scientists, but never understood.

Is this an example? Or is that something else?

What do you mean, “researchers crack”? I solved this physics problem, years ago. It was while I was designing the new addition to the Guggenheim. And it didn’t take very long, either.

I would think it has to do with electromagnetic effects as molecules rub against each other. Laminar flow having stabilizing properties.. turbulent flow being made up of many smaller laminar flows with a tendency to organize according to charge.
But Im not a physicist, as one who knows more might tell.

90% of the population doesn’t have the intellectual capacity to understand this article.

The researchers combined one such tool, known as dynamical systems theory, with existing theories on pattern formation in fluids and advanced numerical simulations. They calculated specific equilibrium solutions for each step of the process, enabling them to explain the transition from the chaotic to the structured state.

A little more information about this part of the article might be helpful. This is like saying, "We found the cure for cancer." It leaves people asking, "Well, what is it?"

Which was first, the chicken or the egg... that’s the real question!

Good. Now I’ll be able to sleep at night.

We were just talking about that the other day.

The hide of the Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) produces laminar flow.

The airfoil of the North American P-51 Mustang produces laminar flow.

Both result in reduced drag and higher speed.

[Chode]

why the Russian aircraft designers don't bother with flush rivets past the boundary area where the laminar flow separates, once the boundary layer trips that's the end of laminar flow in that region... but then with the loss of laminar flow, non-flush rivets create drag

Don’t scientists have anything better to do?
