Structure and dynamics of rotating turbulence: a review of recent experimental and numerical results

FS Godeferd, F Moisy - Applied Mechanics Reviews, 2015 - asmedigitalcollection.asme.org
Rotating turbulence is a fundamental phenomenon appearing in several geophysical and
industrial applications. Its study benefited from major advances in the recent years, but also …

Quasi-two-dimensional turbulence

A Alexakis - Reviews of Modern Plasma Physics, 2023 - Springer
Many fluid-dynamical systems met in nature are quasi-two-dimensional: they are
constrained to evolve in approximately two dimensions with little or no variation along the …

Quantitative experimental observation of weak inertial-wave turbulence

E Monsalve, M Brunet, B Gallet, PP Cortet - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We report the quantitative experimental observation of the weak inertial-wave turbulence
regime of rotating turbulence. We produce a statistically steady homogeneous turbulent flow …

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 …

The energy cascade in near-field non-homogeneous non-isotropic turbulence

R Gomes-Fernandes… - Journal of Fluid …, 2015 - cambridge.org
We perform particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements of various terms of the non-
homogeneous Kármán–Howarth–Monin equation in the most inhomogeneous and …

Direct and inverse energy cascades in a forced rotating turbulence experiment

A Campagne, B Gallet, F Moisy, PP Cortet - Physics of Fluids, 2014 - pubs.aip.org
We present experimental evidence for a double cascade of kinetic energy in a statistically
stationary rotating turbulence experiment. Turbulence is generated by a set of vertical flaps …

Energy transfer in turbulence under rotation

M Buzzicotti, H Aluie, L Biferale, M Linkmann - Physical Review Fluids, 2018 - APS
It is known that rapidly rotating turbulent flows are characterized by the emergence of
simultaneous upscale and downscale energy transfer. Indeed, both numerics and …

Three-dimensional energy transfer in space plasma turbulence from multipoint measurement

F Pecora, Y Yang, WH Matthaeus, A Chasapis… - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
A novel multispacecraft technique applied to Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission data in the
Earth's magnetosheath enables evaluation of the energy cascade rate from the full Yaglom's …

Shortcut to geostrophy in wave-driven rotating turbulence: the quartetic instability

M Brunet, B Gallet, PP Cortet - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We report on laboratory experiments of wave-driven rotating turbulence. A set of wave
makers produces inertial-wave beams that interact nonlinearly in the central region of a …

Scale-to-scale turbulence modification by small settling particles

R Hassaini, F Coletti - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022 - cambridge.org
Despite decades of investigations, there is still no consensus on whether inertial particles
augment or dampen turbulence. Here, we perform the first experimental study in which the …
