A contribution to the occurrence of undular bores and solitary waves in the lower atmosphere, especially over North Germany

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 2007
In a stably stratified atmosphere the propagation of small amplitude internal gravity waves is rather common but often not noticed. The appearance of a group of large amplitude, nonlinear gravity waves in the lower atmosphere is, in comparison, a special

Shaping Matter with Acoustic Waves: From Particles to Functional Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Acoustic‐directed assembly is reviewed as a materials‐oriented strategy for organizing particles, polymers, metals, and biological systems into functional structures. The review distinguishes reversible manipulation from permanent structure formation through medium fixation, particle fixation, and in situ material generation, highlighting routes toward

Internal gravity waves: parametric instability and deep ocean mixing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
International audienceThe Boussinesq approximation provides a convenient framework to describe the dynamics of stably-stratified fluids. A fundamental motion in these fluids consists of internal gravity waves, whatever the strength of the stratification.

Internal gravity waves in stratified flows with and without vortical modes

open access: yes, 2023
The comprehension of stratified flows is important for geophysical and astrophysical applications. The Weak Wave Turbulence theory aims to provide a statistical description of internal gravity waves propagating in the bulk of such flows.

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

Seismic Detection of Oceanic Internal Gravity Waves From Subaerial Seismometers

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2021
Oceanic internal gravity waves propagate along density stratification within the water column and are ubiquitous. They can propagate thousands of kilometers before breaking in shoaling bathymetry and the ensuing turbulent mixing affects coastal processes

Meteotsunami genesis - Atmospheric Internal Gravity Waves

open access: yes, 2021
Meteorological tsunamis are known to be generated by atmospheric disturbances. However, little is known about how these atmospheric disturbances are created.

A Super‐Adhesive Air Filter With Capillarity‐Mediated Spontaneous Particle Absorption via Dynamic Bond Exchange

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We address the inherently weak particle adhesion of conventional air filters by coating a dynamically crosslinked adhesive layer that delivers capillarity‐driven strong adhesion and particle absorption mediated by dynamic bond exchange. The resulting enhancement in particle adhesion enables efficient ultrafast (up to 20 m s−1) and omnidirectional ...
