Mixing induced by Faraday surface waves
Andrés Castillo-Castellanos, Benoît-Joseph Gréa, Antoine Briard +1
We investigate how surface waves enhance mixing across the interface between two miscible fluids with a small density contrast. Imposing a vertical, time-periodic acceleration, we…
Deep-sea deployment of the KM3NeT neutrino telescope detection units by self-unrolling
The KM3NeT Collaboration, S. Aiello, A. Albert +252
KM3NeT is a research infrastructure being installed in the deep Mediterranean Sea. It will house a neutrino telescope comprising hundreds of networked moorings - detection units or…
A statistical mechanics approach to mixing in stratified fluids
Antoine Venaille, Louis Gostiaux, Joel Sommeria
Predicting how much mixing occurs when a given amount of energy is injected into a Boussinesq fluid is a longstanding problem in stratified turbulence. The huge number of degrees o…
Soliton generation by internal tidal beams impinging on a pycnocline: laboratory experiments
Matthieu J. Mercier, Manikandan Mathur, Louis Gostiaux +4
In this paper, we present the first laboratory experiments that show the generation of internal solitary waves by the impingement of a quasi-two-dimensional internal wave beam on a…
Large-scale, realistic laboratory modeling of M2 internal tide generation at the Luzon Strait
Matthieu J. Mercier, Louis Gostiaux, Karl Helfrich +6
The complex double-ridge system in the Luzon Strait in the South China Sea (SCS) is one of the strongest sources of internal tides in the oceans, associated with which are some of…
New wave generation
Matthieu J. Mercier, Denis Martinand, Manikandan Mathur +3
We present the results of a combined experimental and numerical study of the generation of internal waves using the novel internal wave generator design of Gostiaux et al. (2007).…
