Role of overturns in optimal mixing in stratified mixing layers
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2017-09-10)
Turbulent mixing plays a major role in enabling the large scale ocean circulation. The accuracy of mixing rates estimated from observations
depends on our understanding of basic fluid mechanical processes underlying the ...
Turbulent mixing due to the Holmboe wave instability at high Reynolds number
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2016)
We consider numerically the transition to turbulence and associated mixing in stratified shear flows with initial velocity distribution $\bar U$(z, 0)e$_{x}$ = U$_{0}$e$_{x}$ tanh(z/d) and initial density distribution $\bar ...
