Motion in stratified fluids

RV More, AM Ardekani - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - annualreviews.org
Density stratification due to temperature or salinity variations greatly influences the flow
around and the sedimentation of objects such as particles, drops, bubbles, and small …

Particles, drops, and bubbles moving across sharp interfaces and stratified layers

J Magnaudet, MJ Mercier - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2020 - annualreviews.org
Rigid or deformable bodies moving through continuously stratified layers or across sharp
interfaces are involved in a wide variety of geophysical and engineering applications, with …

On the rising and sinking motion of bouncing oil drops in strongly stratified liquids

JG Meijer, Y Li, C Diddens, D Lohse - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - cambridge.org
When an immiscible oil drop is immersed in a stably stratified ethanol–water mixture, the
Marangoni flow on the surface of the drop can experience an oscillatory instability, so that …

Influence of pycnocline on settling behaviour of non-spherical particle and wake evolution

MM Mrokowska - Scientific reports, 2020 - nature.com
Settling of non-spherical particles in a stratified fluid exhibits complex dynamics in a low-to-
moderate inertia regime. Although this process is involved in a wide variety of phenomena in …

Buoyancy oscillations

B Voisin - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2024 - cambridge.org
The oscillations of buoyant bodies in stratified fluids are deduced from the variations of their
added mass. Three configurations are considered: a body displaced from its neutral level …

Settling of highly porous and impermeable particles in linear stratification: implications for marine aggregates

S Ahmerkamp, B Liu, K Kindler, J Maerz… - Journal of Fluid …, 2022 - cambridge.org
The settling velocity of porous particles in linear stratification is affected by the diffusive
exchange between interstitial and ambient water. The extent to which buoyancy and …

Effect of layer thickness for the bounce of a particle settling through a density transition layer

S Wang, J Wang, J Deng - Physical Review E, 2023 - APS
We study numerically a spherical particle settling through a density transition layer at
moderate Reynolds numbers Re u= 69∼ 259 for the upper fluid. We investigate how the …

Cluster formation during particle settling in stratified fluid

D Deepwell, BR Sutherland - Physical Review Fluids, 2022 - APS
To gain insight into the microscopic processes leading to the observed collective settling of
particles from the base of a particle-bearing fresh water layer overlying salt water, we …

Drag, deformation, and drift volume associated with a drop rising in a density stratified fluid

VA Shaik, AM Ardekani - Physical Review Fluids, 2020 - APS
We consider a drop of constant density and uniform interfacial tension rising in a linearly
density stratified fluid. In the limits of weak inertia and stratification effects, we calculate the …

Review on the Hydro-and Thermo-Dynamic Wakes of Underwater Vehicles in Linearly Stratified Fluid

L Cao, Y Pan, G Gao, L Li, D Wan - Journal of Marine Science and …, 2024 - mdpi.com
Wakes produced by underwater vehicles, particularly submarines, in density-stratified fluids
play a pivotal role across military, academic, and engineering domains. In comparison to …
