Parametrically-excited surface waves, forced by a periodic sequence of delta-function impulses, are considered within the framework of the Zhang-Vi\~nals model (J. Fluid Mech. 1997). The exact impulsive-forcing results, in the linear and…

In a magnetic fluid parametrically driven surface waves can be excited by an external oscillating magnetic field. A static magnetic field changes the restoring forces and damping coefficients of the various surface waves. This property…

We present here a study of selection of rhombic patterns close to a bicritical point at the onset of primary surface instability in viscous fluids under two-frequency vertical vibration. Rhombic patterns appear to be natural at the primary…
For an immiscible oil drop immersed in a stably stratified ethanol-water mixture, a downwards solutal Marangoni flow is generated on the surface of the drop, owing to the concentration gradient, and the resulting propulsion competes against…
We propose that parametrically excited patterns, also known as Faraday patterns, can be observed in nonlinear fiber resonators, where the coefficient of Kerr nonlinearity is periodically varying along the fiber in resonator. We study the…

The dispersion relation of vertically oscillating fluid surfaces has been a subject extensively studied in the past, as well as surface instabilities produced by electrohydrodynamic (EHD) waves in similar configurations. In the present work…
A horizontal flow of two immiscible fluid layers with different densities, viscosities and thicknesses, subject to vertical gravitational forces and with an insoluble surfactant present at the interface, is investigated. The base Couette…

An isotropic elastic half space is prestrained so that two of the principal axes of strain lie in the bounding plane, which itself remains free of traction. The material is subject to an isotropic constraint of arbitrary nature. A surface…
We report the observation of wave turbulence on the surface of a ferrofluid mechanically forced and submitted to a static normal magnetic field. We show that magnetic surface waves arise only above a critical field. The power spectrum of…
