A Mach 1.2 planar shock wave impulsively and simultaneously accelerates a row of three heavy gas (SF6) cylinders surrounded by a lighter gas (air), producing pairs of vortex columns. The heavy gas cylinders (nozzle diameter D ) are initially equidist

We experimentally investigate the evolution and interaction of two Richtmyer–Meshkov-unstable gas cylinders using concentration field visualization and particle image velocimetry. The heavy-gas (SF6) cylinders have an initial spanwise separation of

We describe a highly-detailed experimental characterization of the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability (the impulsively driven Rayleigh-Taylor instability) (Meshkov 1969; Richtmyer 1960). In our experiment, a vertical curtain of heavy gas (SF6) flows into

A varicose-profile, thin layer of heavy gas ( SF6) in lighter gas (air) is impulsively accelerated by a planar, Mach 1.2 shock, producing the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability. We present the first measurements of the circulation in the curtain during th

A series of low-cost simple, “kitchen-physics” experiments demonstrates Rayleigh-Taylor Instability (RTI), the growth of ripples at an interface between fluids when the higher-density fluid is on top. We also describe the importance of RTI in oce

We present estimates of the Hausdorff fractal dimension of a planar section of the interfaces on the sides of a thin curtain of heavy gas (SF6) embedded in air and accelerated with a planar shock wave at Mach 1.2. As the Richtmyer‐Meshkov instabili

Richtmyer–Meshkov instability of a thin curtain of heavy gas (SF6) embedded in air and accelerated by a planar shock wave (Mach 1.2) leads to the growth of interfacial perturbations in the curtain and to mixing. Our experiments produce a phenomenol

We investigate the evolution of a thin curtain of heavy gas (SF{sub 6} ) embedded in a lighter gas (air) and accelerated with a Machthinspthinsp1.2 planar shock wave. The Richtmyer-Meshkov instability leads to growth of the initial perturbations of t

Multi-exposure flow visualization experiments with laser-sheet illumination provide growth-rate measurement of Richtmyer–Meshkov instability of a thin, perturbed heavy-gas layer embedded in a lower-density gas and accelerated by a planar shock wave

Direct 2‐D numerical simulation of the fluid instability of a shock‐accelerated thin gas layer shows flow patterns in agreement with experimental images. The Eulerian‐based hydrodynamics code features Adaptive Mesh Refinement that allows the co
