Statistical mechanics of Fofonoff flows in an oceanic basin
A. Naso, P. H. Chavanis, B. Dubrulle
We study the minimization of potential enstrophy at fixed circulation and energy in an oceanic basin with arbitrary topography. For illustration, we consider a rectangular basin an…

Statistical mechanics of Beltrami flows in axisymmetric geometry: Equilibria and bifurcations
Aurore Naso, Simon Thalabard, Gilles Collette +2
We characterize the thermodynamical equilibrium states of axisymmetric Euler-Beltrami flows. They have the form of coherent structures presenting one or several cells. We find the…
