The dynamical systems approach recently applied to understand subcritical transitions in wall-bounded shear flows is combined with the use of large-eddy simulations to investigate the nature of large-scale coherent motions in turbulent Couette and Poiseuille flows. Exact invariant solutions of the filtered Navier-Stokes (LES) equations are computed by using the Smagorinsky model to parametrize small-scale...
Travelling-wave solutions are shown to bifurcate from relative periodic orbits in plane Poiseuille flow at Re=2000 in a saddle-node infinite-period bifurcation. These solutions consist in self-sustaining sinuous quasi-streamwise streaks and quasi-streamwise vortices located in the bulk of the flow. The lower branch travelling-wave solutions evolve into spanwise localized states when the spanwise size...
