Nodal Analysis Of Nonlinear Behavior Of The Instability At A Fluid Interface
PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS(2015)
摘要
In interface instabilities, deformations first grow exponentially, then enter a nonlinear regime affecting amplitude and symmetry. Most extant studies have focused on amplitude alone. Here, we study a 2D Rayleigh-Taylor instability for an initial sinusoidal deformation, analyzing its amplitude and asymmetry over time. For the latter, we define a metric based on the zero crossings of the interface. We develop a weakly nonlinear model and compare it to experimental data. It shows that our asymmetry metric complements the amplitude for an improved description of the instabilities' nonlinear phases.
