Abstract
Previous experiments that have examined the generation of internal gravity waves by a monochromatic source have been restricted to small amplitude forcing in Boussinesq stratified fluids. Here we present measurements of internal waves generated by a circular cylinder oscillating at large amplitude in a non-Boussinesq fluid. The ‘synthetic schlieren’ optical measurement technique (Sutherland et al. in J Fluid Mech 390:93–126, 1999) is extended to stratifications in which the index of refraction of the fluid may vary nonlinearly with density. The method is applied to examine disturbances in approximately uniformly stratified ambient fluids consisting either of sodium chloride (NaCl) or sodium iodide (NaI) solutions whose concentrations increase to near-saturation at the bottom of the tank. In particular, we report upon the first extensive measurements of the optical properties of NaI solutions as they depend upon concentration and density. Applying the results to experiments, we find that large amplitude forcing generates a patch of oscillatory turbulence surrounding the cylinder, thereby increasing the effective cylinder size and decreasing the amplitude of the waves in comparison with the predictions of linear theory. We parameterize the influence of the turbulent boundary layer in terms of an effective cylinder radius and forcing amplitude.

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 it
