Collective motion in a sheet of microswimmers

Self-propelled particles such as bacteria or algae swimming through a fluid are non-equilibrium systems where particle motility breaks microscopic detailed balance, often resulting in large-scale collective motion. Previous theoretical work has identified ...

Mean-field transport equations and energy theorem for plasma edge turbulent transport

Reinart Andreas J. Coosemans

This paper establishes a mean-field equation set and an energy theorem to provide a theoretical basis in view of the development of self-consistent, physics-based turbulent transport models for mean-field transport codes. A rigorous averaging procedure ide ...

Temporal Prediction of Landslide-Generated Waves Using a Theoretical-Statistical Combined Method

Christophe Ancey, Zhenzhu Meng

For the prediction of landslide-generated waves, previous studies have developed numerous empirical equations to express the maximums of wave characteristics as functions of slide parameters upon impact. In this study, we built the temporal relationship be ...

Generalised Kerr Microcomb Physics in Synchronously Driven Systems

Miles Henry Anderson

In this thesis, the generation of microcombs under complex, non-trivial, and/or higher-order cavity conditions is explored, both in theory & simulation, and in practical experimentation. Pulse-driving of microresonators is investigated for the generation ...

Dissipative Solitons and Switching Waves in Dispersion-Modulated Kerr Cavities

Tobias Kippenberg, Rui Ning Wang, Johann Emmeram Riemensberger, Miles Henry Anderson, Alexey Tikan, Aleksandr Tusnin, Alisa Davydova

We theoretically and experimentally investigate the formation of dissipative coherent structures in Kerr nonlinear optical microresonators, whose spectrum encompasses an integrated dispersion that exceeds the cavity free-spectral range. We are able to acce ...

Nonlinear inviscid damping and shear-buoyancy instability in the two-dimensional Boussinesq equations

Michele Dolce

We investigate the long-time properties of the two-dimensional inviscid Boussinesq equations near a stably stratified Couette flow, for an initial Gevrey perturbation of size & epsilon;. Under the classical Miles-Howard stability condition on the Richardso ...

Mean flow modeling in high-order nonlinear Schrodinger equations

Debbie Eeltink

The evaluation and consideration of the mean flow in wave evolution equations are necessary for the accurate prediction of fluid particle trajectories under wave groups, with relevant implications in several domains, from the transport of pollutants in the ...

Density-wave ordering in a unitary Fermi gas with photon-mediated interactions

Jean-Philippe Brantut, Victor Youri Helson, Kevin Etienne Robert Roux, Hideki Konishi, Timo Zwettler

A density wave (DW) is a fundamental type of long-range order in quantum matter tied to self-organization into a crystalline structure. The interplay of DW order with superfluidity can lead to complex scenarios that pose a great challenge to theoretical an ...

Stochastic particle transport by deep-water irregular breaking waves

Debbie Eeltink

Correct prediction of particle transport by surface waves is crucial in many practical applications such as search and rescue or salvage operations and pollution tracking and clean-up efforts. Recent results by Deike et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 829, 2017, ...

Zero Parasitic Shift Pivoting Kinematic Structures Based On Coupled N-RRR Planar Parallel Mechanisms For Flexure Pivot Design

Simon Nessim Henein, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann, Florent Cosandier, Loïc Benoît Tissot-Daguette

Flexure pivots, which are widely used for precision mechanisms, generally have the drawback of presenting parasitic shifts accompanying their rotation. The known solutions for canceling these undesirable parasitic translations usually induce a loss in radi ...

Long-Distance Coherent Propagation of High-Velocity Antiferromagnetic Spin Waves

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu

We report on coherent propagation of antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin waves over a long distance (similar to 10 mu m) at room temperature in a canted AFM alpha-Fe2O3 owing to the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Unprecedented high group velocities (up ...

Insights Into the Dynamics of Vegetated Alternate Bars by Means of Flume Experiments

Giulio Calvani

Alternate bars are bedforms recognizable in straight or weakly curved channels as a result of riverbed instability. The length and height of alternate bars scale with the river width and the water depth, respectively. During low water stages, alternate bar ...

High power mm-wave loss measurements of ITER ex-vessel waveguide components at the FALCON test facility at the Swiss Plasma Center

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Avelino Mas Sanchez, Anastasia Xydou, Cinta Lucia Marraco Borderas, Humberto Torreblanca Quiroz

Many future fusion devices will rely heavily, if not solely, on electron cyclotron (EC) heating subsystems to provide bulk heating, instability control (neoclassical tearing mode (NTM) stabilization), and thermal instability control. Efficient use of the i ...

Boundary-layer approach to the linear karren instability

François Gallaire, Simeon Vladimirov Djambov

The present paper concerns the linear fate of transverse perturbations in a gravity-driven, thin-film flow over a soluble substrate. We propose a reduced-order model, based on a boundary-layer treatment of the solute transport and a depth-integration of th ...

A weakly nonlinear amplitude equation approach to the bypass transition in the two-dimensional Lamb–Oseen vortex

François Gallaire, Yves-Marie François Ducimetière

We analytically derive an amplitude equation for the weakly nonlinear evolution of the linearly most amplified response of a non-normal dynamical system. The development generalizes the method proposed in Ducimetière et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 947, 2022, ...
