Energy dissipation in body-forced plane shear flow
We study the problem of body-force-driven shear flows in a plane channel of width optimal solution of the variational problem bears some qualitative resemblance to the observed mean flow profiles in the simulations. These results extend and refine the recent analysis for body-forced turbulence in Doering & Foias (2002).
