Numerical simulation of supercritical trapped internal waves over topography
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We consider the steady flow of a stratified fluid over topography in a fluid of finite vertical extent, as typified by experimental flumes with a rigid lid or the ocean under the rigid lid approximation. We do not specify a functional form of the upstream stratification or background current and derive a general version of the Dubreil–Jacotin–Long equation appropriate for the problem. This elliptic equation is strongly nonlinear and we develop an efficient, pseudospectral, iterative method for its numerical solution. The method allows us to compute laminar, trapped waves with amplitudes more than 50% of the depth of the fluid. We find that when either a background shear current is present or the topography is narrow enough, multiple steady states are possible and we confirm this finding by using integrations of the full time-dependent Euler equations. We discuss instances of waves with closed streamlines, finding that the presence of shear allows for waves with vortex cores that persist for long times in time-dependent simulations and match well with solutions of the steady theory. In contrast, streamline overturning in the absence of upstream shear only occurs for flows that are stratified near the surface and in this instance, time-dependent simulations yield unsteady cores that do not match steady results very well.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
