The effects of spanwise confinement on stratified shear instabilities
Yves-Marie Ducimetière, François Gallaire, Adrien Lefauve +1
We consider the influence of transverse confinement on the instability properties of velocity and density distributions reminiscent of those pertaining to exchange flows in stratif…

Reynolds stresses in Holmboe instabilities: from linear growth to saturation
Adam J. K. Yang, E. W. Tedford, J. Olsthoorn +2
The Reynolds stress in Holmboe instabilities at moderate Reynolds numbers is investigated using single wavelength simulations (SWS), multiple wavelength simulations (MWS), and labo…

A versatile scanning method for volumetric measurements of velocity and density fields
J. L. Partridge, A. Lefauve, Stuart B. Dalziel
Understanding turbulence in a stratified environment requires a detailed picture of both the velocity field and the density field. Experimentally, this represents a significant mea…
