Research projects
The focus of my research is free-surface flows, hydrodynamic instabilities and turbulence.
In the group Instabilities, Waves and Turbulence, we conduct experimental research on wind-generated waves, ship wakes, parametric (Faraday-like) instabilities, turbulence in a rotating frame, and turbulent mixing of miscible fluids.
Publication list - CV
- Hydrodynamics of bacterial suspensions
- Free-surface flows
- Waves and turbulence in rotating flows
- Rotating turbulence on the Gyroflow platform, with A. Campagne, N. Machicoane, P.-P. Cortet, C. Lamriben, in collaboration with B. Gallet (CEA Saclay).
- Inertial waves and modes, with N. Machicoane, P.-P. Cortet, C. Lamriben, J. Boisson; in collaboration with B. Voisin (LEGI, Grenoble), L.R.M. Maas (NIOZ, Netherlands) and T. Dauxois (ENS Lyon).
Past research projects:
- Ship's wake: Kelvin or Mach angle?, with M. Rabaud
- Parametric instability and cross-waves (with M. Rabaud, E. Sultan and G.-J. Michon)
- A fluid Foucault pendulum, with J. Boisson, P.-P. Cortet and D. Cebron (ETH Zurich)
- Turbulent buoyant mixing (with J. Znaien, J.-P. Hulin and Y. Tanino)
- Experiments on the large-scale rotating platform Coriolis at Grenoble (with J. Sommeria, LEGI, Grenoble)
- Early small-scale rotating platform at FAST (with C. Morize and M. Rabaud)
- Instability patterns in rotating
flows (collaborations with O. Daube, CEMIF / LME, and C. Nore, LIMSI).
- High
vorticity structures in isotropic turbulence (collaboration with J. Jiménez, School of
Aeronautics, Madrid).
- Low-pressure
filaments in turbulence using cavitation (with E. Bodenschatz, Cornell
University / Max Planck Institute).
- Turbulence in low temperature helium (PhD thesis, supervised by P. Tabeling, at Laboratoire de Physique Statistique - Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris).
