Scattering of swell by currents
Han Wang, Ana B. Villas Bôas, William R. Young +1
The refraction of surface gravity waves by currents leads to spatial modulations in the wave field and, in particular, in the significant wave height. We examine this phenomenon in…
Computing Lagrangian means
Hossein A. Kafiabad, Jacques Vanneste
Lagrangian averaging plays an important role in the analysis of wave--mean-flow interactions and other multiscale fluid phenomena. The numerical computation of Lagrangian means, e.…
Stokes drift and its discontents
Jacques Vanneste, William R. Young
The Stokes velocity , defined approximately by Stokes (1847, Trans. Camb. Philos. Soc., 8, 441-455), and exactly via the Generalized Lagrangian Mean, is dive…
Bayesian comparison of stochastic models of dispersion
Martin T. Brolly, James R. Maddison, Aretha L. Teckentrup +1
Stochastic models of varying complexity have been proposed to describe the dispersion of particles in turbulent flows, from simple Brownian motion to complex temporally and spatial…
Vortex dynamics on a Möbius strip
Jacques Vanneste
We consider the dynamics of a two-dimensional incompressible perfect fluid on a Möbius strip embedded in . The vorticity-streamfunction formulation of the Euler equat…
Interaction of near-inertial waves with an anticyclonic vortex
Hossein A. Kafiabad, Jacques Vanneste, William R. Young
Anticyclonic vortices focus and trap near-inertial waves so that near-inertial energy levels are elevated within the vortex core. Some aspects of this process, including the nonlin…
