  • Measurement of three-dimensional coherent fluid structure in high Reynolds number turbulent boundary layers 

    Clark, Thomas Henry (University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2012-07-03)
    The turbulent boundary layer is an aspect of fluid flow which dominates the performance of many engineering systems - yet the analytic solution of such flows is intractable for most applications. Our understanding of ...

  • 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 ...
