Linear dynamics in turbulent stratified plane Poiseuille flow (2024)
Journal Article
Lloyd, C. J., & Dorrell, R. M. (2024). Linear dynamics in turbulent stratified plane Poiseuille flow. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 999, Article A104. https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2024.1000We investigate a turbulent stratified plane Poiseuille flow using linear models and nonlinear simulations. We propose the first complete explanation for the prolific and coherent backward (BWs)-and forward-propagating waves (FWs), which have been obs...

The coupled dynamics of internal waves and hairpin vortices in stratified plane Poiseuille flow (2022)
Journal Article
Lloyd, C., Dorrell, R., & Caulfield, C.-C. (2022). The coupled dynamics of internal waves and hairpin vortices in stratified plane Poiseuille flow. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 934, Article A10. https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2021.1007A simulation of stably stratified plane Poiseuille flow at a moderate Reynolds number (Formula Presented) and Richardson number (Formula Presented) is presented. For the first time, the dynamics in the channel core are shown to be described as a seri...
