  • Artificial Micro-Devices: Armoured Microbubbles and a Magnetically Driven Cilium 

    Spelman, Tamsin Anne (University of CambridgeDAMTPQueens', 2017-10-01)
    Micro-devices are developed for uses in targeted drug delivery and microscale manipulation. Here we numerically and analytically study two promising devices in early stages of development. Firstly, we study Armoured ...

  • Dynamics of quasi-two-dimensional turbulent jets 

    Landel, Julien Rémy Dominique Gérard (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical PhysicsChurchill CollegeBP Institute, 2012-11-13)
    The study of quasi-two-dimensional turbulent jets is relevant to chemical reactors, the coking process in oil refinement, as well as rivers flowing into lakes or oceans. In the event of a spillage of pollutants into a ...

  • Jets, mixing, and topography in the Southern Ocean 

    Boland, Emma Joan Douglas (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical PhysicsClare College, 2013-11-12)
    The Southern Ocean holds a unique place in our planet. It is home to the world’s longest and strongest ocean current, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (or ACC), which is formed of jets (alternating velocity structures), ...

  • Scattering of internal gravity waves 

    Leaman Nye, Abigail (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical PhysicsSelwyn College, 2011-04-19)
    Internal gravity waves play a fundamental role in the dynamics of stably stratified regions of the atmosphere and ocean. In addition to the radiation of momentum and energy remote from generation sites, internal waves ...
