Exact invariant solution reveals the origin of self-organized oblique turbulent-laminar stripes
It is known from experiments and simulations that stripes of alternating laminar and turbulent regions can form in plane Couette flow. Here the authors find an exact invariant solution which captures the detail of the spatial structures of these patterns and identifies their origin.
