Sub-surface turbulence and free-surface features
Amélie Ferran, Ali Semati, Anaïs Rouaud +2
Many turbulent flows encountered in nature -- seas, oceans and rivers -- are bounded by a deformable free surface. A question that remained to be fully explored is to what extent t…
Experimental investigation relating free-surface features to sub-surface turbulence
Omer M. Babiker, Jørgen R. Aarnes, Ali Semati +4
Turbulent flows beneath a free surface play a central role in the Earth system, yet their coupling to observable surface features remains incompletely understood. Recent studies us…
Turbulence unsteadiness drives extreme clustering
Florencia Zapata, Sofía Angriman, Amélie Ferran +3
We show that the unsteadiness of turbulence has a drastic effect on turbulence parameters and in particle cluster formation. To this end we use direct numerical simulations of part…
Solar-powered shape-changing origami microfliers
Kyle Johnson, Vicente Arroyos, Amélie Ferran +7
Using wind to disperse microfliers that fall like seeds and leaves can help automate large-scale sensor deployments. Here, we present battery-free microfliers that can change shape…
