Although, in recent studies, critical points marking the onset of sustained turbulence have been determined for several such flows, the physical nature of the transition could not be fully explained. In extensive experimental and computational studies we show for the example of Couette flow that the onset of turbulence is a second-order phase transition and falls into the directed percolation universality class. Consequently, the complex laminar–turbulent patterns distinctive for the onset of turbulence in shear flows result from short-range interactions of turbulent domains and are characterized by universal critical exponents. More generally, our study demonstrates that even high-dimensional systems far from equilibrium such as turbulence exhibit universality at onset and that here the collective dynamics obeys simple rules."}],"publist_id":"5685","publisher":"Nature Publishing Group","issue":"3","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"Nature Physics","quality_controlled":"1","date_published":"2016-02-15T00:00:00Z","project":[{"call_identifier":"FP7","_id":"25152F3A-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"Decoding the complexity of turbulence at its origin","grant_number":"306589"},{"name":"Astrophysical instability of currents and turbulences","_id":"2511D90C-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"SFB 963  TP A8"}],"status":"public","ec_funded":1,"day":"15","oa_version":"None","publication_status":"published","acknowledgement":"We thank P.
