Spontaneous rotation can stabilise ordered chiral active fluids

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Active fluids consist of self-driven particles which consume energy to drive spontaneous flow. Here the authors present a general theory of two-dimensional chiral active particles which spontaneously rotate and show that they can form a stable ...

A systematic numerical study of the tidal instability in a rotating triaxial ellipsoid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The full non-linear evolution of the tidal instability is studied numerically in an ellipsoidal fluid domain relevant for planetary cores applications.

Inverse cascades and resonant triads in rotating and stratified turbulence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Kraichnan’s seminal ideas on inverse cascades yielded new tools to study common phenomena in geophysical turbulent flows. In the atmosphere and the oceans, rotation and stratification result in a flow that can be approximated as two-dimensional at very ...

The Hamiltonian formulation of classical field theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
In this paper I shall present some result from the theory of classical non-relativistic field theory and discuss how they might be useful in the general relativistic context. Some of the Hamiltonian formalism has already been successfully employed in the

Penetrative magneto-convection of a rotating Boussinesq flow in f-planes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Physics of Fluids
In this study, we conducted linear instability analysis of penetrative magneto-convection in rapidly rotating Boussinesq flows within tilted f-planes, under the influence of a uniform background magnetic field.

Rotating planets in newtonian gravity [PDF]

open access: yesLow temperature physics (Woodbury, N.Y., Print), 2018
Variational techniques have been used in applications of hydrodynamics in special cases. What is needed is an action that is general enough to deal with potential flows, as well as vortex flows, with rotating fluids, in Nature, and in the laboratory; it ...

The Rotating Rayleigh-Taylor Instability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The effect of rotation upon the classical two-layer Rayleigh-Taylor instability is considered theoretically and compared with previous experimental results.

Inertial waves in rapidly rotating flows: a dynamical systems perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
An overview of recent developments in a wide variety of enclosed rapidly rotating flows is presented. Highlighted is the interplay between inertial waves, which have been predicted from linear inviscid considerations, and the viscous boundary layer ...

Disentangling inertial waves from eddy turbulence in a forced rotating turbulence experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a spatio-temporal analysis of a statistically stationary rotating turbulence experiment, aiming to extract a signature of inertial waves, and to determine the scales and frequencies at which they can be detected.
