From lab to landscape-scale experiments for the morphodynamics of sand dunes
P. Claudin, S. Courrech du Pont, C. Narteau
We review the main processes that drive the morphodynamics of dunes, i.e. their growth in height, migration and elongation, and emphasise the contribution of experiments to the und…
Improving propulsive efficiency using bio-inspired intermittent locomotion
Tristan Aurégan, Mathilde Lemoine, Benjamin Thiria +1
Many swimmers, especially small to medium-sized animals, use intermittent locomotion that differs from continuous swimming of large species. This type of locomotion, called burst-a…
Direct validation of dune instability theory
Ping Lü, Clément Narteau, Zhibao Dong +6
Modern dune fields are valuable sources of information for the large-scale analysis of terrestrial and planetary environments and atmospheres, but their study relies on understandi…
Streamwise Dissolution Patterns Created by a Flowing Water Film
Adrien Guérin, Julien Derr, Sylvain Courrech du Pont +1
The dissolution of rocks by rainfall commonly generates streamwise parallel channels, yet the occurrence of these natural patterns remains to be understood. Here, we report the eme…
Buoyancy driven dissolution of inclined blocks: Erosion rate and pattern formation
Caroline Cohen, Michael Berhanu, Julien Derr +1
The dissolution of a body into quiescent water leads to density stratifications at the interfaces that drive buoyant flows. Where the stratification is unstable, the flow destabili…
