Finite-system size effects in gravity-capillary wave turbulence
Tanu Singla, Jean-Baptiste Gorce, Eric Falcon
We experimentally investigate the effects of finite-system size on the dynamics of weakly nonlinear random gravity-capillary surface waves. Experiments are conducted in rectangular…
Collapse of statistical equilibrium in large-scale hydroelastic turbulent waves
Marlone Vernet, Eric Falcon
At scales larger than the forcing scale, some out-of-equilibrium turbulent systems (such as hydrodynamic turbulence, wave turbulence, and nonlinear optics) exhibit a state of stati…
Thermodynamics and Statistical Equilibrium of Large-Scale Hydroelastic Wave Turbulence
Marlone Vernet, Eric Falcon
Understanding how statistical equilibrium can occur in out-of-equilibrium systems is of paramount interest, as it would enable the use of statistical mechanics tools to these syste…
Soliton Dynamics over a Disordered Topography
Guillaume Ricard, Eric Falcon
We report on the dynamics of a soliton propagating on the surface of a fluid in a 4-m-long canal with a random or periodic bottom topography. Using a full space-and-time resolved w…
