On the dynamics of radiative zones in rotating stars [PDF]
In this lecture I try to explain the basic dynamical processes at work in a radiative zone of a rotating star. In particular, the notion of baroclinicity is thoroughly discussed.

Characteristics of Two-Dimensional Quantum Turbulence in a Compressible Superfluid [PDF]
Under suitable forcing a fluid exhibits turbulence, with characteristics strongly affected by the fluid's confining geometry. Here we study two-dimensional quantum turbulence in a highly oblate Bose-Einstein condensate in an annular trap.

On the mathematical fluid dynamics of the atmospheric Walker circulation
AbstractStarting from the general, governing equations for a viscous, compressible fluid, with an associated description of its thermodynamics, we outline an asymptotic derivation based on the thin-shell approximation. [The details appear in another publication.] This produces a reduced system of equations which retain all the dynamics and ...

Intermittency of Velocity Circulation in Quantum Turbulence
The velocity circulation, a measure of the rotation of a fluid within a closed path, is a fundamental observable in classical and quantum flows. It is indeed a Lagrangian invariant in inviscid classical fluids. In quantum flows, circulation is quantized,

Is the Kelvin Theorem Valid for High-Reynolds-Number Turbulence? [PDF]
The Kelvin-Helmholtz theorem on conservation of circulations is supposed to hold for ideal inviscid fluids and is believed to be play a crucial role in turbulent phenomena, such as production of dissipation by vortex line-stretching.

Cardiovascular fluid dynamics: a journey through our circulation
This article presents a broad overview of the fluid mechanics of the human cardiovascular system. Beginning in the heart, we travel through the main features of our circulation to highlight important functions and diseases where fluid mechanics plays a central role.

A Novel Approach to Investigating Transport of Lost Circulation Materials in Rough Fracture
The drilling fluid loss or lost circulation via fractures is one of the critical engineering problems in the development of deep oil and gas resources. The conventional treatment is to introduce granular lost circulation material (LCM) into the drilling ...

Emergence of decadal linkage between Western Australian coast and Western–central tropical Pacific
The impact of interbasin linkage on the weather/climate and ecosystems is significantly broader and profounder than that of only appearing in an individual basin. Here, we reveal that a decadal linkage of sea surface temperature (SST) has emerged between
