Influence of high permeability disks in an axisymmetric model of the Cadarache dynamo experiment

A. Giesecke, C. Nore, F. Stefani +5

Numerical simulations of the kinematic induction equation are performed on a model configuration of the Cadarache von-Kármán-Sodium dynamo experiment. The effect of a localized axi…

Nonlinear dynamo action in a precessing cylindrical container

C. Nore, J. Léorat, J. -L. Guermond +1

It is numerically demonstrated by means of a magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) code that precession can trigger the dynamo effect in a cylindrical container. This result adds credit to th…

Impact of impellers on the axisymmetric magnetic mode in the VKS2 dynamo experiment

R. Laguerre, C. Nore, A. Ribeiro +3

In the VKS2 (von Kármán Sodium 2) successful dynamo experiment of September 2006, the magnetic field that was observed showed a strong axisymmetric component, implying that non axi…

A Hamiltonian weak-wave model for shallow-water flow

Caroline Nore, Theodore G. Shepherd

A reduced dynamical model is derived which describes the interaction of weak inertia-gravity waves with nonlinear vortical motion in the context of rotating shallow-water flow. The…
