This paper is a study of the water wave problem in a two-dimensional domain of infinite depth in the presence of nonzero constant vorticity. A goal is to describe the effects of uniform shear flow on the modulation of weakly nonlinear…
We study the evolution of local event-by-event deviations from smooth average fluid dynamic fields, as they can arise in heavy ion collisions from the propagation of fluctuating initial conditions. Local fluctuations around Bjorken flow are…
We study the formation of steady waves in two-dimensional fluids under a current with mean velocity $c$ flowing over a periodic bottom. Using a formulation based on the Dirichlet-Neumann operator, we establish the unique continuation of a…
We present analytic and numerical results for a class of monopole solutions to the two-component Gross-Pitaevski equation for a two-species Bose condensate in an effectively two-dimensional trap. We exhibit dynamical instabilities involving…
We study exact solutions for the slow viscous flow of an infinite liquid caused by two rigid spheres approaching each either along or parallel to their line of centres, valid at all separations. This goes beyond the applicable range of…
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…
The dynamics of a small rigid spherical particle in an unbounded pulsating vortex is considered, keeping constant the particle Stokes number St and varying the particle-to-fluid density ratio $\varrho$ and the pulsation frequency of the…
We find a new class of solutions that are traveling waves on the boundary of two--dimensional droplet of ideal fluid. We assume that the free surface is subject only to the force of surface tension, and the fluid flow is potential. We use…
We investigate experimentally the spatial distributions of heavy and neutrally buoyant particles of finite size in a fully turbulent flow. As their Stokes number (i.e. ratio of the particle viscous relaxation time to a typical flow time…
There has been significant recent interest in the study of water waves coupled with non-zero vorticity. We derive analytical approximations for the exponentially-small free-surface waves generated in two-dimensions by one or several…
A stability of nearly limiting Stokes waves to superharmonic perturbations is considered numerically. The new, previously inaccessible branches of superharmonic instability were investigated. Our numerical simulations suggest that…
We derive an exact solution for Stokes flow in an in a channel with permeable walls. We assume that at the channel walls, the normal component of the fluid velocity is described by Darcy's law and the tangential component of the fluid…
We investigate the sedimentation of a cloud of rigid, spherical particles of identical radii under gravity in a Stokes fluid. Both inertia and rotation of particles are neglected. We consider the homogenization limit of many small particles…
We modify the approach of Burton and Toland [Comm. Pure Appl. Math. (2011)] to show the existence of periodic surface water waves with vorticity in order that it becomes suited to a stability analysis. This is achieved by enlarging the…
This paper is concerned with two-dimensional, steady, periodic water waves propagating at the free surface of water either in a flow of finite depth and constant vorticity over an impermeable flat bed or in an irrotational flow of great…
Two-dimensional Stokes flow with injection and suction is investigated through a second-order, perturbative mode-coupling approach. We examine the time-dependent disturbance of an initially circular interface separating two viscous fluids,…
When a vortex refracts surface waves, the momentum flux carried by the waves changes direction and the waves induce a reaction force on the vortex. We study experimentally the resulting vortex distortion. Incoming surface gravity waves…
Owing to three conditions (namely: (a) the velocity is represented by sum of irrotational and solenoidal components; (b) the fluid is barotropic; (c) a bath with the fluid undergoes vertical vibrations) the Navier-Stokes equation admits…
Vortices are pervasive in nature, representing the breakdown of laminar fluid flow and hence playing a key role in turbulence. The fluid rotation associated with a vortex can be parameterized by the circulation $\Gamma=\oint {\rm d}{\bf…
The evaporation of sessile drops in quiescent air is usually governed by vapour diffusion. For contact angles below $90^\circ$, the evaporative flux from the droplet tends to diverge in the vicinity of the contact line. Therefore, the…
