Experimental setups for studying homogeneous-isotropic and rotating turbulence in clay suspensions: Preliminary results
Homogeneous and isotropic turbulence (HIT) has been at the center of a vast span of research seeking fundamental understanding and insights on the phenomenon of turbulence, which is ubiquitous in nature as well as engineering. The HIT assumption greatly simplifies the analytical treatment of …

Rotating, hydromagnetic laboratory experiment modelling planetary cores
… in planetary cores and will occur in future rotating experiments. In fact, the predominance of inertial modes in our experiments and in other recent work leads to a new paradigm for rotating turbulence, starkly different from turbulence theories based on assumptions of isotropy and …

Helical waves in Earth's outer core
… is greater than $0.1$. Separately, in the rotating turbulence literature, there is preliminary evidence of a similarly sharp transition from a columnar flow structure to incoherent turbulence when the Rossby number is $ Ro \sim 0.2-0.6$. We show, that when $Ro > Ro^{\text{crit}} \approx …

An experimental study of the spread of buoyant water into a rotating environment
… dynamics of the spread of buoyant water into a rotating environment. We focus in particular on the role that finite potential vorticity and background turbulence play in determining the flow properties. When water of an anomalous density enters into an oceanic basin, gravity-driven surface flows …
