1. 1. The growth of waves by wind as a problem in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics

   Författare :Anthony Bonfils; John Wettlaufer; Kristian Gustafsson; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; out-of-equilibrium system; fluctuation spectrum; oscillatory force; classical Casimir effect; non-linear waves; wave turbulence; wind-wave coupling.; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

   Sammanfattning : In 1948, Casimir predicted a net attractive force between two perfectly conducting parallel plates due to electromagnetic vacuum fluctuations. By analogy, the interaction of two ships on a wavy sea has been named Maritime Casimir effect. This is an example of force generation in non-equilibrium systems. LÄS MER

3. 2. Waves and instabilities through the lens of asymptotic analysis

   Författare :Anthony Bonfils; John Wettlaufer; Dhrubaditya Mitra; Woosok Moon; Jerome Neufeld; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; waves; wrinkles; instabilities; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

   Sammanfattning : Understanding the interaction of water waves with winds and marine currents is a fundamental problem in geophysical fluid dynamics. From the point of view of hydrodynamic stability, surface waves are regarded as perturbations of an inviscid parallel shear flow modeling the wind in the air and the current in the water. LÄS MER
