Much progress has been made on two-dimensional turbulence, these last two decades, but
still, a number of fundamental questions remain unanswered. The objective of the present …

▪ Abstract We review the dynamics of stably stratified flows in the regime in which the Froude
number is considered small and the Rossby number is of order one or greater. In particular …

This is the 2nd edition of the book, Flow Visualization: Techniques and Examples, which
was published by Imperial College Press in 2000. Many of the chapters have been revised …

This paper describes exact solutions of two-dimensional vortex structures that were
published by Chaplygin (1899, 1903) at the turn of the last century, which seem to have …

In recent years chaotic behavior in scattering problems has been found to be important in a
host of physical situations. Concurrently, a fundamental understanding of the dynamics in …

We develop the idea proposed by Barge & Sommeria (1995) and Tanga et al.(1996) that
large-scale vortices present in the solar nebula can concentrate dust particles and facilitate …

Classical model reduction techniques approximate the solution of a physical model by a
limited number of global modes. These modes are usually determined by variants of …

Classical chaotic scattering is a topic of fundamental interest in nonlinear physics due to the
numerous existing applications in fields such as celestial mechanics, atomic and nuclear …

This paper describes laboratory experiments on dipolar vortex structures in a linearly
stratified fluid. The dipoles are generated by a pulsed horizontal injection of a small volume …

Two iron molybdate catalysts have been prepared by coprecipitation, one stoichiometric
(Mo/Fe atomic ratio= 1.5) and the other with a typical industrial composition (Mo/Fe atomic …
