In the latter turbulent spots can grow and form continuous stripes, yet in the stripe-normal direction they remain interspersed by laminar fluid. We carry out direct numerical simulations in a long narrow domain and observe that individual turbulent stripes are transient. In agreement with recent observations in pipe flow, we find that turbulence becomes sustained at a distinct critical point once the spatial proliferation outweighs the inherent decaying process. By resolving the asymptotic size distributions close to criticality we can for the first time demonstrate scale invariance at the onset of turbulence."}],"article_number":"204502","main_file_link":[{"url":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1304.5446","open_access":"1"}],"doi":"10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.204502","publication":"Physical Review Letters","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:59:49Z","month":"05","project":[{"call_identifier":"FP7","grant_number":"306589","name":"Decoding the complexity of turbulence at its origin","_id":"25152F3A-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425"},{"_id":"2511D90C-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"SFB 963 TP A8","name":"Astrophysical instability of currents and turbulences"}],"citation":{"mla":"Shi, Liang, et al. “Scale Invariance at the Onset of Turbulence in Couette Flow.” Physical Review Letters, vol. 110, no. 20, 204502, American Physical Society, 2013, doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.110.204502.","apa":"Shi, L., Avila, M., & Hof, B.
