Wave–mean interaction theory
This is an informal account of the fluid-dynamical theory describing nonlinear interactions between small-amplitude waves and mean flows. This kind of theory receives little attention in mainstream fluid dynamics, but it has been developed greatly in atmosphere and ocean fluid dynamics. This is because of the pressing need in numerical atmosphere–ocean models to approximate the effects of unres...
متن کاملOn the interaction of wind and steep gravity wave groups using Miles’ and Jeffreys’ mechanisms
The interaction of wind and water wave groups is investigated theoretically and numerically. A steep wave train is generated by means of dispersive focusing, using both the linear theory and fully nonlinear equations. The linear theory is based on the Schrödinger equation while the nonlinear approach is developed numerically within the framework of the potential theory. The interaction between ...
متن کاملInternal wave instability: Wave-wave versus wave-induced mean flow interactions
In continuously stratified fluid, vertically propagating internal gravity waves of moderately large amplitude can become unstable and possibly break due to a variety of mechanisms including with some overlap modulational instability, parametric subharmonic instability PSI , self-acceleration, overturning, and convective instability. In PSI, energy from primary waves is transferred, for example,...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Instability of Internal Gravity Wave Beams
Takeshi Kataoka and T. R. Akylas Department of Mechanical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology [email protected] Abstract The stability of isolated and interacting internal gravity wave beams to three-dimensional perturbations is studied, based on the beam–mean-flow interaction equations derived in Kataoka and Akylas (2015). These two-dimensional states are found to be unstable as ...
متن کاملParametric subharmonic instability of internal gravity wave beams
Internal gravity wave beams are time-harmonic plane waves with general spatial profile that arise in continuously stratified fluids owing to the anisotropy of this wave motion. In the last decade, these wave disturbances have been at the forefront of research, both from a fundamental perspective and in connection with various geophysical flow processes. Oceanic internal wave beams, in particula...
