We present the results of an experimental investigation of the striking flow structures that
may arise when a vertical jet of fluid impinges on a thin fluid layer overlying a horizontal …

We reformulate shallow water theory to understand viscous shear induced natural hydraulic
jumps in channels slightly deviated from the horizontal. One of the interesting contributions …

We examine the structure of the continuous circular hydraulic jump and recirculation for a jet
impinging on a disk. We use a composite mean-field thin-film approach consisting of …

The paper deals with the steady axially symmetric flow of a viscous liquid layer over a
rotating disk. The liquid is fed near the axis of rotation and spreads due to inertia and the …

The properties of a standard hydraulic jump depend critically on a Froude number Fr defined
as the ratio of the flow velocity to the gravity waves speed. In the case of a horizontal circular …

In an effort to capture the continuous hydraulic jump and flow structure for a jet impinging on
a disk, we recently proposed a composite mean-field thin-film approach consisting of …

A round liquid jet impinging on a circular disc with free edge generates a thin liquid film in
the center surrounded by a thick film. For low flow rates, the thick film is bounded by a stable …

The transient flow of a circular liquid jet impinging on a horizontal disk, and the hydraulic
jump formation, are examined theoretically and numerically. The interplay between inertia …

The free-surface flow formed by a circular jet impinging on a stationary disk is analysed
theoretically. We develop a simple and coherent model to predict the location and height of …

When a vertical liquid jet impacts on a solid and horizontal surface, the liquid starts
spreading radially on the surface, until a sudden increase in the fluid height occurs and a …
