🚨 An exciting opportunity for a funded PhD studentship with me on immersed boundary method simulations for ice-ocean interfaces! 🧊

Please repost and share with students! Deadline is 31st March.

New paper! doi.org/10.1017/jfm.... We show the successful stabilisation of travelling waves from pipe flow turbulence using a multiple time-delayed feedback method (with Tatusya Yasuda). This method does not require careful massaging of initial conditions, nor does it need phase speeds in advance!

Submit Your Abstract before 23rd January!

It's less than 2 weeks until the abstract submission deadline for the 2nd European Fluid Dynamics Conference. I'm really excited to welcome the fluids community to @ucddublin.bsky.social next August, so please send in your abstracts!

Dynamically relevant recurrent flows obtained via a nonlinear recurrence function from two-dimensional turbulence When searching for recurrence in turbulent flows a well-known issue is an inability of simple distance measures to identify solutions exhibiting high dissipation bursting behaviour. By constructing no...

First Bluesky post! Check out the first paper of my excellent former PhD student on diagnosing recurrence in turbulence using triads. We also entrained a very talented undergrad to look at reconstructing statistics with the converged UPOs. Good work Ed and Andrei! doi.org/10.1103/Phys...
