Non-linear evolution of tidally forced inertial waves in rotating fluid bodies
Non-linear evolution of tidally forced inertial waves in rotating fluid bodies
We perform one of the first studies into the non-linear evolution of tidally excited inertial waves in a uniformly rotating fluid body, exploring a simplified model of the fluid envelope of a planet (or the convective envelope of a solar-type star) subject to the gravitational tidal perturbations of an orbiting …
