Abstract: Flow properties of a bubble plume in density-stratified conditions are studied using planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) flow visualization. Entrained ambient fluid is identified by applying an image intensity threshold ...

Abstract: The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is applied to spatial concentration data, obtained using laser-induced fluorescence (LIF), for the flow around a confined circular cylinder (R=4,900) and compared with their ...

Abstract: Laboratory studies of tidal vortex formation and propagation through an idealized inlet configuration are presented for various water depths over flat bathymetry. Using surface particle image velocimetry, starting-jet ...
