We present an experimental analysis of the linear and nonlinear regimes of an attractor of
inertial waves in a trapezoidal cavity under rotation. Varying the rotation rate and the forcing …

In a uniformly rotating fluid, inertial waves propagate along rays that are inclined to the
rotation axis by an angle that depends on the wave frequency. In closed domains, multiple …

Internal waves are ubiquitous in the ocean and play an essential role in the transport of
energy and mixing. Their peculiar reflection enables the concentration of energy on a limit …

We present an experimental and numerical study of the nonlinear dynamics of an inertial
wave attractor in an axisymmetric geometrical setting. The rotating ring-shaped fluid domain …

Internal (gravity) wave attractors may form in closed containers with boundaries non-parallel
and non-normal to the gravity vector. Such attractors have been studied from a theoretical …

This paper presents an experimental study of different instability scenarios in a
parallelogram-shaped internal wave attractor in a trapezoidal domain filled with a uniformly …

As a necessary preliminary step toward geophysically significant extrapolations, we study
the scale effects in internal wave attractors in the linear and nonlinear regimes. We use two …

Internal (inertial) waves in a uniformly stratified (rotating) fluid obey a highly specific
dispersion relation that admits their propagation in form of oblique beams, which preserve …

Three different approximations to the axisymmetric small-disturbance dynamics of a
uniformly rotating thin spherical shell are studied for the equatorial region assuming time …

The current paper presents an experimental study of the energy budget of a two-
dimensional internal wave attractor in a trapezoidal domain filled with uniformly stratified …
