Wilton ripples are a type of periodic traveling wave solution of the full water wave problem incorporating the effects of surface tension. They are characterized by a resonance phenomenon that alters the order at which the resonant harmonic…
Turbulence may appear as a complex process with a multitude of scales and flow patterns, but still obeys simple physical principles such as the conservation of momentum, of energy, and the maximum entropy principle. The latter states that…

In a granular gas, inelastic collisions produce an instability in which the constituent particles cluster heterogeneously. These clusters then interact with each other, further decreasing their kinetic energy. We report experiments of the…
