Localized layers of turbulence in stratified horizontally sheared Poiseuille flow
Joris Labarbe, Patrice Le Gal, Uwe Harlander +2
This article presents a numerical analysis of the instability developing in horizontally sheared Poiseuille flow, when stratification extends along the vertical direction. Our stud…
Swimming of a ludion in a stratified sea
P. Le Gal, B. Castillo Morales, S. Hernandez Zapata +1
We describe and model experimental results on the dynamics of a "ludion" - a neutrally buoyant body - immersed in a layer of stably stratified salt water. By oscillating a piston i…
The linear instability of the stratified plane Couette flow
Giulio Facchini, Benjamin Favier, Patrice Le Gal +2
We present the stability analysis of a plane Couette flow which is stably stratified in the vertical direction orthogonally to the horizontal shear. Interest in such a flow comes f…
Double-diffusive convection and baroclinic instability in a differentially heated and initially stratified rotating system: the barostrat instability
Miklos Vincze, Ion Borcia, Uwe Harlander +1
A water-filled differentially heated rotating annulus with initially prepared stable vertical salinity profiles is studied in the laboratory. Based on two-dimensional horizontal pa…
