Lyapunov dimension of elastic turbulence
Lyapunov dimension of elastic turbulence
Low-Reynolds-number polymer solutions exhibit a chaotic behaviour known as āelastic turbulenceā when the Weissenberg number exceeds a critical value. The two-dimensional Oldroyd-B model is the simplest constitutive model that reproduces this phenomenon. To make a practical estimate of the resolution scale of the dynamics, one requires the assumption that an ā¦
