Spontaneous generation of helical flows by salt fingers
Adrian E. Fraser, Adrian van Kan, Edgar Knobloch +2
We study the dynamics of salt fingers in the regime of slow salinity diffusion (small inverse Lewis number) and strong stratification (large density ratio), focusing on regimes rel…

Two-dimensional turbulent condensates without bottom drag
Adrian van Kan, Alexandros Alexakis, Edgar Knobloch
The extent to which statistical equilibrium theory is applicable to driven dissipative dynamics remains an important open question in many systems. We use extensive direct numerica…
