We obtain an exact non linear stationary solution for barotropic wares in a b-plane channel and show that it can be excited under a range of initial conditions. Results show that a finite-amplitude wave in a constant shear flow, given an initial phase...
Two-dimensional perturbations configured for maximum energy growth in laminar viscous shear flow are shown to develop into quasisteady finite amplitude structures, provided that the initial perturbation has sufficient energy and a nearby nonlinear mode...
Stochastic structural stability theory (S3T) provides analytical methods for understanding the emergence and equilibration of jets from the turbulence in planetary atmospheres based on the dynamics of the statistical mean state of the turbulence closed at...
