Abstract: It is shown that inertial waves in the form of standing asymmetrical pressure waves can exist in an incompressible liquid in a rotating sectored cylinder in a rigid body (e.g., a top or a ...

Abstract: An analysis of the inertial wave eigenfrequencies of a rapidly rotating liquid in a cylinder whose cross section is divided into four 90 deg sectors reveals that only if the cylinder height ...

Abstract: A study is made of the time evolution of the flow generated by an annulus (a disk with a hole in it) of inner, outer radii a and b (a ≪ b ), impulsively set into motion and rising at ...
