Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous synthetic schlieren and PIV measurements for internal solitary waves
TL;DR: In this paper, a large-amplitude internal solitary wave in a stratification comprising a thick, lower, homogeneous layer separated from a thin, upper, homogenous layer by a broad gradient region is studied using simultaneous measurements of the density and velocity fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shear-induced breaking of large internal solitary waves
TL;DR: In this article, the stability properties of 24 experimentally generated internal solitary waves (ISWs) of extremely large amplitude, all with minimum Richardson number less than 1/4, are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Penetrative convection in a superposed porous-medium-fluid layer via internal heating
TL;DR: In this article, a two-layer system in which a layer of fluid overlies and saturates a porous medium via internal heating is simulated via Darcy's law and in the fluid layer by the Navier-Stokes equations with a Boussinesq approximation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linear stability of natural convection in superposed fluid and porous layers: Influence of the interfacial modelling
TL;DR: In this paper, a linear stability analysis is carried out, using the so-called two-domain approach and including the Brinkman term in the porous region (2ΩDB).
Journal ArticleDOI
Penetrative convection in a fluid overlying a porous layer
Magda Carr,Brian Straughan +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an accurate numerical calculation is presented for the onset of thermal convection in a two-layer system which is comprised of a layer of porous material described by Darcy's law, over which lies a thin layer of water.
