High–Reynolds number wall turbulence
We review wall-bounded turbulent flows, particularly high–Reynolds number, zero–pressure
gradient boundary layers, and fully developed pipe and channel flows. It is apparent that the …

Large-and very-large-scale motions in channel and boundary-layer flows
Large-scale motions (LSMs; having wavelengths up to 2–3 pipe radii) and very-LSMs
(having wavelengths more than 3 pipe radii) have been shown to carry more than half of the …
