A droplet ejection mechanism in planar two-phase mixing layers is examined. Any disturbance on the gas-liquid interface grows into a Kelvin-Helmholtz wave, and the wave crest forms a thin liquid film that flaps as the wave grows downstream.…
The dynamics of the forward vortex cascade in 2D turbulence in a superfluid film is investigated using analytic techniques. The cascade is formed by injecting pairs with the same initial separation (the stirring scale) at a constant rate.…

When a planar shock wave interacts with a random pattern of pre-shock density non-uniformities, it generates an anisotropic turbulent velocity/vorticity field. This turbulence plays an important role at the early stages of the mixing…
Compressible vortex rings, usually formed at the open end of a shock tube, often show interesting phenomena during their formation, evolution, and propagation depending on the shock Mach number (Ms) and exit flow conditions. The Mach number…
