  bibo_abstract:
  - Using extensive direct numerical simulations, the dynamics of laminar-turbulent
    fronts in pipe flow is investigated for Reynolds numbers between and 5500. We
    here investigate the physical distinction between the fronts of weak and strong
    slugs both by analysing the turbulent kinetic energy budget and by comparing the
    downstream front motion to the advection speed of bulk turbulent structures. Our
    study shows that weak downstream fronts travel slower than turbulent structures
    in the bulk and correspond to decaying turbulence at the front. At the downstream
    front speed becomes faster than the advection speed, marking the onset of strong
    fronts. In contrast to weak fronts, turbulent eddies are generated at strong fronts
    by feeding on the downstream laminar flow. Our study also suggests that temporal
    fluctuations of production and dissipation at the downstream laminar-turbulent
    front drive the dynamical switches between the two types of front observed up
    to.@eng
