Observations of inertial waves in a rectangular basin with one sloping boundary

AMM Manders, LRM Maas - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2003 - cambridge.org
Inertial waves in a homogeneous rotating fluid travel along rays that are inclined with
respect to the rotation axis. The angle of inclination depends solely on the ratio of the wave …

On the three-dimensional structure of the inertial wave field in a rectangular basin with one sloping boundary

AMM Manders, LRM Maas - Fluid dynamics research, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
Inertial waves propagate obliquely through a rotating fluid with an angle with respect to the
rotation axis that is determined by the ratio of wave frequency and rotation frequency. This …

Direct numerical simulations of an inertial wave attractor in linear and nonlinear regimes

L Jouve, GI Ogilvie - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2014 - cambridge.org
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 …

Observations on the wavenumber spectrum and evolution of an internal wave attractor

J Hazewinkel, P Van Breevoort, SB Dalziel… - Journal of Fluid …, 2008 - cambridge.org
Reflecting internal gravity waves in a stratified fluid preserve their frequency and thus their
angle with the gravitational direction. At boundaries that are neither horizontal nor vertical …

Observation of inertia-gravity wave attractors in an axisymmetric enclosed basin

C Pacary, T Dauxois, E Ermanyuk, P Metz, M Moulin… - Physical Review …, 2023 - APS
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 …

geometric attractors of internal and/or inertial waves in a stratified and/or rotating fluid. The …

Nonlinear regimes of inertial wave attractors generated by a precessing lid: Zonal flows and Rossby waves

S Subbotin, N Shmakova, V Kozlov, E Ermanyuk - Physics of Fluids, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
Fluid flow excited by inertial waves in a rotating annulus with a trapezoidal cross section is
experimentally investigated. The forcing is introduced by the precession of a flat annular lid …

Experimental evidence of a triadic resonance of plane inertial waves in a rotating fluid

G Bordes, F Moisy, T Dauxois, PP Cortet - Physics of Fluids, 2012 - pubs.aip.org
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 …

Internal wave attractors in three-dimensional geometries: trapping by oblique reflection

Wave focusing and ensuing mean flow due to symmetry breaking in rotating fluids

LRM Maas - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2001 - cambridge.org
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 …
