Rotating fluids support waves. These inertial waves propagate obliquely through the fluid,
with an angle that is fixed with respect to the rotation axis. Upon reflection, their wavelength …

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 …

Plane inertial waves are generated using a wavemaker, made of oscillating stacked plates,
in a rotating water tank. Using particle image velocimetry, we observe that, after a transient …

Inertial waves propagate in homogeneous rotating fluids, and constitute a challenging and
simplified case study for the broader class of inertio-gravity waves, present in all geophysical …

The 245th Euromech Colloquium, on the effect of background rotation on fluid motions, was
held in Cambridge from 10–13 April 1989 with the two authors acting as chairmen. There …

Small-amplitude time-dependent motions of a uniformly rotating, density-stratified,
Boussinesq non-dissipative fluid in a rigid container are examined for the case of the …

Inertial waves are a ubiquitous feature of rapidly rotating fluids. Although much is known
about their initial excitation, little is understood about their stability. Experiments indicate that …

The dynamics of rotating fluids was, in the main, developed by methods special to the field,
using the equationsof motion of a fluid inarotatingframe of reference. It is, nevertheless …

This paper presents a review of theoretical, experimental, and numerical studies of
geometric attractors of internal and/or inertial waves in a stratified and/or rotating fluid. The …

The formation and the evolution of axisymmetric vortex rings in a uniformly rotating fluid, with
the rotation axis orthogonal to the ring vorticity, have been investigated by numerical and …
