Asymmetrical wakes over anisotropic bathymetries Euvé, L.-P., A. Maurel, P. Petitjeans, and V. Pagneux Journal of Fluid Mechanics 984 (2024) Résumé: The study investigates the impact of a vertically layered bathymetry, consisting of submerged vertical plates, on a ship wake through theoretical analysis and experimental realization. For subwavelength distances between the plates, the analysis relies on a homogenized model that provides an effective, anisotropic, dispersion relation for the propagation of water waves. Our findings reveal that a highly asymmetric wake can be achieved, with the degree of asymmetry contingent upon the ship propagation direction in relation to the plate orientation. This anisotropy is characterized with respect to water depth and to ship length using the dimensionless depth and hull Froude numbers. Laboratory experiments align closely with theoretical predictions, confirming that the asymmetry of the wake can indeed be managed through manipulation of bathymetric conditions.
Multiple scattering theory in one dimensional space and time dependent disorder: average field [Invited] Selvestrel, A., J. Rocha, R. Carminati, and R. Pierrat Optical Materials Express 14, no. 3, 801-815 (2024) Résumé: We theoretically study the propagation of light in one-dimensional space- and time-dependent disorder. The disorder is described by a fluctuating permittivity ε(x, t) exhibiting short-range correlations in space and time, without cross correlation between them. Depending on the illumination conditions, we show that the intensity of the average field decays exponentially in space or in time, with characteristic length or time defining the scattering mean-free path ℓs and the scattering mean-free time τs. In the weak scattering regime, we provide explicit expressions for ℓs and τs, that are checked against rigorous numerical simulations.

Characterization of ejecta in shock experiments with multiple light scattering Don Jayamanne, J. A., J. R. Burie, O. Durand, R. Pierrat, and R. Carminati Journal of Applied Physics 135, no. 7 (2024) Résumé: Upon impact, the free surface of a solid metal may eject a cloud of fast and fine particles. Photon Doppler Velocimetry (PDV) is one of the optical diagnostics used to characterize these ejecta. Although the technique provides a direct way to estimate the particle velocities in the single scattering regime, it has been shown that multiple scattering cannot be neglected in real ejecta. Here, we derive a model for PDV measurements starting from the first principles of wave scattering. We establish rigorously the relationship between the specific intensity and the measured signal, as well as the Radiative Transport Equation (RTE) that describes the evolution of the specific intensity upon scattering and absorption in dynamic ejecta, including the effects of inelastic scattering and inhomogeneities in the optical properties. We also establish rigorously the connection between the Monte Carlo scheme used for numerical simulations and the solution to the RTE. Using numerical simulations, we demonstrate the crucial contribution of multiple scattering to PDV spectrograms as well as the effect of statistical inhomogeneities in particle size distribution. These results could substantially impact the analysis of ejecta by PDV.
Backscattering reduction in a sharply bent water wave channel Kucher, S., A. Koźluk, P. Petitjeans, A. Maurel, and V. Pagneux Physical Review B 108, no. 21 (2023) Résumé: We study theoretically and experimentally how to reduce the backscattering of water waves in a channel with multiple turns. We show that it is possible not only to cancel backscattering but also to achieve a remarkable transmission in such geometries. In order to avoid the reflection that naturally arises at each turn of the waveguide, an anisotropic metamaterial made of closely spaced thin vertical plates is used. The efficiency of the metamaterial arrangement depends only slightly on the frequency of the incident wave, as long as its wavelength is much larger than the periodicity of the array. This phenomenon is applies not only to water wave channels but also to any type of waves with Neumann boundary conditions.
