Abstract:	We present the complete unfolding of streamwise localisation in a paradigm of extended shear flows, namely two-dimensional plane Poiseuille flow. Exact solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations are computed numerically and tracked in the streamwise wavenumber-Reynolds number parameter space to identify and describe the fundamental mechanism behind streamwise localisation, a ubiquitous feature of shear flow turbulence. Unlike shear flow spanwise localisation, streamwise localisation does not follow the snaking mechanism demonstrated for plane Couette flow.
