Nonlinear synthetic Schlieren methods for free-surface topography measurement using telecentric imaging

Shimin Zhang, Frédéric Moisy, Wietze Herreman +1

Free-surface synthetic Schlieren (FS-SS) is a high-resolution, refraction-based optical technique for measuring the instantaneous elevation of a liquid interface. Under the assumpt…

Capillary effects on preferential orientation of floaters in gravity waves

Basile Dhote, Ewen Le Ster, Wietze Herreman +1

We study the influence of capillary effects on the motion of thin elastic plates denser than water drifting in propagating surface gravity waves. Such floaters experience a mean an…

Preferential orientation of slender elastic floaters in gravity waves

Wietze Herreman, Basile Dhote, Frederic Moisy

Slender floaters drifting in propagating gravity waves slowly rotate towards a preferential state of orientation with respect to the angle of incidence. This angular drift arises f…

Stability theory for metal pad roll with consideration of viscous and magnetic damping

Pranav Hegde, Wietze Herreman, Gerrit Maik Horstmann

We present a new theoretical model for the analytical prediction of the metal pad roll instability in idealised aluminium reduction cells consisting of two stably stratified liquid…

Flexible floaters align with the direction of wave propagation

Basile Dhote, Frederic Moisy, Wietze Herreman

We investigate the slow, second order motion of thin flexible floating strips drifting in surface gravity waves. We introduce a diffractionless model (Froude-Krylov approximation)…

Preferential orientation of small floaters drifting in water waves

W. Herreman, B. Dhote, L. Danion +1

Elongated floaters drifting in propagating water waves slowly rotate towards a preferential orientation with respect to the direction of incidence. In this article, we study this p…

Counter-rotation in an orbitally shaken glass of beer

F. Moisy, J. Bouvard, W. Herreman

Swirling a glass of wine induces a rotating gravity wave along with a mean flow rotating in the direction of the applied swirl. Surprisingly, when the liquid is covered by a floati…

Mean mass transport in an orbitally shaken cylindrical container

Julien Bouvard, Wietze Herreman, Frederic Moisy

A cylindrical container partially filled with a liquid in orbital shaking motion, i.e. in circular translation with fixed orientation with respect to an inertial frame of reference…

Metal pad roll instability in liquid metal batteries

Norbert Weber, Pascal Beckstein, Vladimir Galindo +4

The increasing deployment of renewable energies requires three fundamental changes to the electric grid: more transmission lines, a flexibilisation of the demand and grid scale ene…

Libration driven multipolar instabilities

David Cébron, Stijn Vantieghem, Wietze Herreman

We consider rotating flows in non-axisymmetric enclosures that are driven by libration, i.e. by a small periodic modulation of the rotation rate. Thanks to its simplicity, this mod…
