The cross-over from viscous to inertial lengthscales in rapidly-rotating convection

Céline Guervilly, Emmanuel Dormy

Convection is the main heat transport mechanism in the Earth's liquid core and is thought to power the dynamo that generates the geomagnetic field. Core convection is strongly cons…

Inviscid Water-Waves and interface modeling

Emmanuel Dormy, Christophe Lacave

We present a rigorous mathematical analysis of the modeling of inviscid water waves. The free-surface is described as a parametrized curve. We introduce a numerically stable algori…

Solenoidal force balances in numerical dynamos

Robert J. Teed, Emmanuel Dormy

Numerical simulations of the geodynamo (and other planetary dynamos) have made significant progress in recent years. As computing power has advanced, some new models claim to be ev…

B{é}nard convection in a slowly rotating penny shaped cylinder subject to constant heat flux boundary conditions

A M Soward, L Oruba, E Dormy

We consider axisymmetric Boussinesq convection in a shallow cylinder radius, L, and depth, H (<< L), which rotates with angular velocity about its axis of symmetry aligned to t…

Flow induced by the rotation of two circular cylinders in a viscous fluid

E. Dormy, H. K. Moffatt

The low-Reynolds-number Stokes flow driven by rotation of two parallel cylinders of equal unit radius is investigated by both analytical and numerical techniques. In Part I, the ca…

The inertial wave activity during spin-down in a rapidly penny shaped cylinder. Part II The inertial wave of maximum frequency trigger

L. Oruba, A. M. Soward, E. Dormy

In an earlier paper, Oruba, Soward & Dormy (J.Fluid Mech., vol.818, 2017, pp.205-240) considered the primary quasi-steady geostrophic (QG) motion of a constant density fluid of vis…
