Controlled impact of a disk on a water surface: Cavity dynamics
Raymond Bergmann, Devaraj van der Meer, Stephan Gekle +2
In this paper we study the transient surface cavity which is created by the controlled impact of a disk of radius h0 on a water surface at Froude numbers below 200. The dynamics of…
