The aim of this paper is to strengthen and validate the theory proposed by Vladimir V. Kulish, where the fluctuations of velocity during a laminar-turbulent transition can be viewed as a fractal time series [4]. The FRATSAN program which was written by Karthik Seetharaman was used as a means to anal...
