Internal shear layers generated by a vertically oscillating cylinder in unbounded and bounded rotating fluids

Internal shear layers generated by a vertically oscillating cylinder in unbounded and bounded rotating fluids

In previous works, we analysed the internal shear layers excited by a viscous forcing (longitudinal libration) in a spherical shell geometry (He et al., J. Fluid Mech. 939, A3, 2022; 974, A3, 2023). We now consider the stronger inviscid forcing corresponding to the vertical oscillation of the inner core. We …
