The evolution of the interface separating a conduit of light, viscous fluid rising buoyantly through a heavy, more viscous, exterior fluid at small Reynolds numbers is governed by the interplay between nonlinearity and dispersion. Previous…
Faraday waves are capillary ripples that form on the surface of a fluid being subject to vertical shaking. Although it is well known that the form and shape of the waves pattern depend on driving amplitude and frequency, only recent studies…
