Diapycnal mixing in layered stratified plane Couette flow quantified in a tracer-based coordinate
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017-07)
The mixing properties of statically stable density interfaces subject to imposed vertical shear are studied using direct numerical simulations of stratified plane Couette flow. The simulations are designed to investigate ...
Gravity current propagation up a valley
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2015-01-10)
The advance of the front of a dense gravity current propagating in a rectangular channel and V-shaped valley both horizontally and up a low slope is examined through theory, full-depth lock-release laboratory experiments ...
