Internship and thesis proposals
Streaming at the water surface induced by complex surface wave field

Domaines
Soft matter
Physics of liquids
Hydrodynamics/Turbulence/Fluid mechanics

Type of internship
Expérimental et théorique
Description
This internship aims to investigate experimentally and/or theoretically the fascinating complex flow patterns induced by random surface wave fields at the water surface. Preliminary results suggest that there exists strong connexion between the flow features (vortices/rivers) and the wave field features (zeros and maximum of oscillation), that are still to be explored and understood. Possibility to apply for PhD on the same topic.
