Modulational instability, wave breaking and formation of large scale dipoles in the atmosphere

A. Iafrati, A. Babanin, M. Onorato

In the present Letter we use the Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of the Navier-Stokes equation for a two-phase flow (water and air) to study the dynamics of the modulational inst…

Experimental assessment of a new form of scaling law for near-wall turbulence

B. Jacob, A. Olivieri, C. M. Casciola

Scaling laws and intermittency in the wall region of a turbulent flow are addressed by analyzing moderate Reynolds number data obtained by single component hot wire anemometry in t…
