We study experimentally the onset of Faraday waves near the endwalls of rectangular vessel containing two stably-stratified fluid layers, subject to horizontal oscillations. These subharmonic waves (SWs) are excited, because the horizontal…

We investigate how surface waves enhance mixing across the interface between two miscible fluids with a small density contrast. Imposing a vertical, time-periodic acceleration, we excite Faraday waves both experimentally and numerically. In…
Materials adsorbed to the surface of a fluid -- for instance, crude oil, biogenic slicks, or industrial/medical surfactants -- will move in response to surface waves. Due to the difficulty of non-invasive measurement of the spatial…
Parametric oscillations of an interface separating two fluid phases create nonlinear surface waves, called Faraday waves, which organise into simple patterns, like squares and hexagons, as well as complex structures, such as double…

The linear instability of Faraday waves in Hele-Shaw cells is investigated with consideration of the viscosity of fluids after gap-averaging the governing equations due to the damping from two lateral walls and the dynamic behavior of…
We develop a theory of parametric excitation of weakly nonlinear standing gravity waves in a tank, which is under vertical vibrations with a slowly time-dependent ("chirped") vibration frequency. We show that, by using a negative chirp, one…
