Inertial waves in fluid regions of planets and stars play an important role in their dynamics and evolution, through energy, heat and angular momentum transport and mixing of chemicals. While inertial wave propagation in flows prescribed by…
Rotating shear flows, when angular momentum increases and angular velocity decreases as functions of radiation coordinate, are hydrodynamically stable under linear perturbation. The Keplerian flow is an example of such systems which appears…
As small particles skim our airways during breathing, or our intestines during digestion, the surface epithelium is subjected to local exogenous shear that deforms hundreds to thousands of tightly interacting cells. Unlike shear…
In rotating fluids, the viscous smoothing of inviscid singular inertial waves leads to the formation of internal shear layers. In previous works, we analysed the internal shear layers excited by a viscous forcing (longitudinal libration) in…
This paper continues the systematic investigation of diffusive shear instabilities initiated in Part I of this series. In this work, we primarily focus on quantifying the impact of non-local mixing, which is not taken into account in Zahn's…
The effect of oscillatory shear flows on turbulent transport of passive scalar fields is studied by numerical computations based on the results provided by E. Kim [\emph{Physics of Plasmas}, {\bf 13}, 022308, 2006]. Turbulent diffusion is…
Lee waves generated by stratified flow over rough bottom topography in the ocean extract momentum and energy from the geostrophic flow, causing drag and enhancing turbulence and mixing in the interior ocean when they break. Inviscid linear…
In turbulent flows subject to strong background rotation, the advective mechanisms of turbulence are superseded by the propagation of inertial waves, as the effects of rotation become dominant. While this mechanism has been identified…
A bypass transition scenario in a wind-stress driven aqueous flow is analysed using a temporally developing boundary layer model with accelerating surface drift velocity. The parameters of the model are selected to mimic a wave-tank…
Direct numerical simulations are conducted to study the receptivity and transition mechanisms in a solitary wave boundary layer developing over randomly organized wave-like bottom topography. The boundary layer flow shows a selective…
Oceanic waves registered by satellite observations often have curvilinear fronts and propagate over various currents. In this paper, we study long linear and weakly-nonlinear ring waves in a stratified fluid in the presence of a…
This paper explores decaying turbulence beneath surface waves that is initially isotropic and shear-free. We start by presenting phenomenology revealed by wave-averaged numerical simulations: an accumulation of angular momentum in coherent…
Three-dimensional excitable systems can create nonlinear scroll waves that rotate around one-dimensional phase singularities. Recent theoretical work predicts that these filaments drift along step-like height variations. Here we test this…
Starting from the equations of Stokes flow and the mass conservation of particles as determined by shear-induced diffusion, we derive the coupled equations for the dynamics of particle concentration and film thickness for the free-surface…
Turbulent mixing processes in deep alpine Lake Garda (I) have not extensively been observed. Knowledge about drivers of turbulent fluxes are important for insights in the transport of matter, nutrients and pollutants, in the lake and in…
The background of this work is the problem of reducing the aerodynamic turbulent friction drag, which is an important source of energy waste in innumerable technological fields. We develop a theoretical framework aimed at predicting the…
We study how stably stratified or semi-convective layers alter tidal dissipation rates associated with the generation of inertial, gravito-inertial, interfacial and surface gravity waves in rotating giant planets. We explore scenarios in…
Stokes wave is a finite amplitude periodic gravity wave propagating with constant velocity in inviscid fluid. Complex analytical structure of Stokes wave is analyzed using a conformal mapping of a free fluid surface of Stokes wave into the…
The mass-transport induced by crossed surface waves consists of the Stokes and Euler contributions which are very different in nature. The first contribution is a generalization of Stokes drift for a plane wave in ideal fluid and the second…
Symmetry-based analyses of multiscale velocity gradients highlight that strain self-amplification (SS) and vortex stretching (VS) drive forward energy transfer in turbulent flows. By contrast, a strain-vorticity covariance mechanism…
