We simulate numerically the full dynamics of Faraday waves in three dimensions for two incompressible and immiscible viscous fluids. The Navier–Stokes equations are solved using a finite-difference projection method coupled with a front-tracking method for the interface between the two fluids. The critical accelerations and wavenumbers, as well as the temporal behaviour at onset are compared with the results of the linear Floquet analysis of Kumar & Tuckerman (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 279, 1994, p. 49). The finite-amplitude results are compared with the experiments of Kityk et al (Phys. Rev. E, vol. 72, 2005, p. 036209). In particular, we reproduce the detailed spatio-temporal spectrum of both square and hexagonal patterns within experimental uncertainty. We present the first calculations of a three-dimensional velocity field arising from the Faraday instability for a hexagonal pattern as it varies over its oscillation period.

An inviscid laminar boundary layer flow Û(ŷ) with vertical thickness λy, and free stream velocity U is disturbed at time $\tcirc$ = 0 by a normal velocity $\vcirc$ and by a spanwise velocity ŵ([xcirc ],ŷ, $\zcirc$, 0) of finite amplitude αU, with spanwise ($\zcirc$) scale λz, and streamwise ([xcirc ]) scale λx = λz/α; the streamwise velocity û([xcirc ],ŷ,$\zcirc$,$\tcirc$) is initially undisturbed. A long wave λy/λz → 0) expansion of the Euler equations for fixed α and time scale $\tcirc$s = U−1λz/α results in a hyperbolic equation for Lagrangian displacements ŷ. Within the interval $\tcirc$ > $\tcirc$s of asymptotic validity, finite parcel displacements (O(λy)) with finite (O(U)) û fluctuations occur, independent of α no matter how small; the basic flow Û is therefore said to be unstable to streaky (λx [Gt ] λz) spanwise perturbations. The temporal development of the ('spot’) region in the (x,z) plane wherein inflected û profiles appear is computed and qualitatively related to observations of ‘breakdown’ and transition to turbulence in the flow over a flat plate. The maximum $\vcirc$([xcirc ],ŷ,$\zcirc$,$\tcirc$) increases monotonically to infinity as $\tcirc$ → $\tcirc$s.

In this paper, we derive a continuum variational model for a two-dimensional deformable lattice of atoms interacting with a two-dimensional rigid lattice. The starting point is a discrete atomistic model for the two lattices which are assumed to have slightly different lattice parameters and, possibly, a small relative rotation. This is a prototypical example of a three-dimensional system consisting of a graphene sheet suspended over a substrate. We use a discrete-to-continuum procedure to obtain the continuum model which recovers both qualitatively and quantitatively the behaviour observed in the corresponding discrete model. The continuum model predicts that the deformable lattice develops a network of domain walls characterized by large shearing, stretching and bending deformation that accommodates the misalignment and/or mismatch between the deformable and rigid lattices. Two integer-valued parameters, which can be identified with the components of a Burgers vector, describe the mismatch between the lattices and determine the geometry and the details of the deformation associated with the domain walls.
