Vortex shedding by a swimming sphere in a viscous incompressible fluid is studied for surface modulation characterized by a superposition of dipolar and quadrupolar, as well as for quadrupolar and octupolar displacements, varying harmonically in time. The time-dependent swimming velocity and the flow velocity are calculated to second order in the amplitude of surface modulation for both models. The models are also useful for the discussion of bird flight.

The present article represents part of the PhD. dissertation by C. Josserand. We discuss the nucleation of quantized vortices in the nonlinear Schr{o}dinger equation (NLS) for a flow around a disk in two spatial dimensions. It appears that the vortic es are nucleated when the flow becomes locally (at the edge of the disk) supersonic. A detailed study of the phase equation for the complex field $psi$ gives an Euler-Tricomi type equation for the stationary solutions below threshold. This equation is closely related to the one known in shock wave dynamics for gas. Then using solvability condition, we extract a time-dependent scenario for the evolution of the amplitude of the solution, which we, finally, relate to a known family solution of NLS which gives rise to a vortex nucleation. We also give a first order correction at the Landau velocity of nucleation, taking into account the geometry of the flow.

In this paper, we derive a viscous generalization of the Dysthe (1979) system from the weakly viscous generalization of the Euler equations introduced by Dias, Dyachenko, and Zakharov (2008). This viscous Dysthe system models the evolution of a weakl y viscous, nearly monochromatic wave train on deep water. It contains a term which provides a mechanism for frequency downshifting in the absence of wind and wave breaking. The equation does not preserve the spectral mean. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the spectral mean typically decreases and that the spectral peak decreases for certain initial conditions. The linear stability analysis of the plane-wave solutions of the viscous Dysthe system demonstrates that waves with wave numbers closer to zero decay more slowly than waves with wave numbers further from zero. Comparisons between experimental data and numerical simulations of the NLS, dissipative NLS, Dysthe, and viscous Dysthe systems establish that the viscous Dysthe system accurately models data from experiments in which frequency downshifting was observed and experiments in which frequency downshift was not observed.

The geometric phase techniques for swimming in viscous flows express the net displacement of a swimmer as a path integral of a field in configuration space. This representation can be transformed into an area integral for simple swimmers using Stokes theorem. Since this transformation applies for any loop, the integrand of this area integral can be used to help design these swimmers. However, the extension of this Stokes theorem technique to more complicated swimmers is hampered by problems with variables that do not commute and by how to visualise and understand the higher dimensional spaces. In this paper, we develop a treatment for each of these problems, thereby allowing the displacement of general swimmers in any environment to be designed and understood similarly to simple swimmers. The net displacement arising from non-commuting variables is tackled by embedding the integral into a higher dimensional space, which can then be visualised through a suitability constructed surface. These methods are developed for general swimmers and demonstrated on {three} benchmark examples: Purcells two-hinged swimmer, an axisymmetric squirmer in free space {and an axisymmetric squirmer approaching a free interface}. We show in particular that for swimmers with more than two modes of deformation, there exists an infinite set of strokes that generate each net displacement. Hence, in the absence of additional restrictions, general microscopic swimmers do not have a single stroke that maximises their displacement.

For centrosymmetric materials such as monolayer graphene, no optical second harmonic generation (SHG) is generally expected because it is forbidden under the electric-dipole approximation. Yet we observed a strong, doping induced SHG from graphene, w ith its highest strength comparable to the electric-dipole allowed SHG in non-centrosymmetric 2D materials. This novel SHG has the nature of an electric-quadrupole response, arising from the effective breaking of inversion symmetry by optical dressing with an in-plane photon wave vector. More remarkably, the SHG is widely tuned by carrier doping or chemical potential, being sharply enhanced at Fermi edge resonances, but vanishing at the charge neutral point that manifests the electron-hole symmetry of massless Dirac Fermions. The striking behavior in graphene, which should also arise in graphene-like Dirac materials, expands the scope of nonlinear optics, and holds the promise of novel optoelectronic and photonic applications.

The direct transition-matrix approach to determination of the electric polarizabilities of quantum bound systems developed in my recent work is applied to study the electric multipole polarizabilities of a two-particle bound complex with a central in teraction between the particles. Expressions for the electric quadrupole and octupole polarizabilities of the deuteron are derived and their values in the case of the S-wave separable interaction potential are calculated.
