Experiments in surface gravity–capillary wave turbulence

E Falcon, N Mordant - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2022 - annualreviews.org
The last decade has seen a significant increase in the number of studies devoted to wave
turbulence. Many deal with water waves, as modeling of ocean waves has historically …

Optical wave turbulence: Towards a unified nonequilibrium thermodynamic formulation of statistical nonlinear optics

A Picozzi, J Garnier, T Hansson, P Suret, S Randoux… - Physics Reports, 2014 - Elsevier
The nonlinear propagation of coherent optical fields has been extensively explored in the
framework of nonlinear optics, while the linear propagation of incoherent fields has been …

Varying ocean wave statistics emerging from a single energy spectrum in an experimental wave tank

M Canard, G Ducrozet, B Bouscasse - Ocean Engineering, 2022 - Elsevier
As it strongly impacts the design of offshore structures, the realistic reproduction of sea
states in experimental and numerical wave tanks is of great interest to the ocean …

Propagation of capillary waves in two-layer oil–water turbulent flow

G Giamagas, F Zonta, A Roccon… - Journal of Fluid …, 2023 - cambridge.org
We study the dynamics of capillary waves at the interface of a two-layer stratified turbulent
channel flow. We use a combined pseudo-spectral/phase field method to solve for the …

Experimental quasi-1D capillary-wave turbulence

G Ricard, E Falcon - Europhysics Letters, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Wave turbulence in quasi-1D geometry is usually not investigated experimentally since low-
order resonant wave interactions are theoretically prohibited. Here, we report on the first …

Characterization of capillary waves: A review and a new optical method

RI Slavchov, B Peychev, AS Ismail - Physics of Fluids, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
The methods to study capillary waves have been reviewed together with the emerging
practical applications of theirs and new theoretical developments in the field. The focus is on …

Growth and spectra of gravity–capillary waves in countercurrent air/water turbulent flow

F Zonta, A Soldati, M Onorato - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2015 - cambridge.org
Using direct numerical simulation of the Navier–Stokes equations, we analyse the dynamics
of the interface between air and water when the two phases are driven by opposite pressure …

The effect of nonlinear drag on the rise velocity of bubbles in turbulence

DJ Ruth, M Vernet, S Perrard, L Deike - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2021 - cambridge.org
We investigate how turbulence in liquid affects the rising speed of gas bubbles within the
inertial range. Experimentally, we employ stereoscopic tracking of bubbles rising through …

Laboratory study of wave turbulence under isotropic forcing

Z Taebel, ML McAllister, A Scotti, M Onorato… - Physical Review …, 2024 - APS
The statistical treatment of random weakly nonlinear interactions between waves, called
wave turbulence (WT), is fundamental to understanding the development of the ocean …

Role of the basin boundary conditions in gravity wave turbulence

L Deike, B Miquel, P Gutiérrez, T Jamin… - Journal of Fluid …, 2015 - cambridge.org
Gravity wave turbulence is investigated experimentally in a large wave basin in which
irregular waves are generated unidirectionally. The roles of the basin boundary conditions …
