Defects and drift of structures in parametrically excited capillary ripples

The onset of defects is experimentally studied in a system of capillary waves parametrically excited in a thin layer of liquid with different bottom topography. It is shown that the onset of defects occurs through the excitation of bounded wave-field regions corresponding to the areas with higher de...

Zusammenfassung:The onset of defects is experimentally studied in a system of capillary waves parametrically excited in a thin layer of liquid with different bottom topography. It is shown that the onset of defects occurs through the excitation of bounded wave-field regions corresponding to the areas with higher depths. The drift of defects and structures is associated with the near-bottom mass flow generated by rapidly decaying surface waves.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
