    Flow structure beneath periodic waves with constant vorticity under strong horizontal electric fields
    (Elsevier B.V., 2024-12-01)
    While several articles have been written on Electrohydrodynamics (EHD) flows or flows with constant vorticity separately, little is known about the extent to which the combined effects of EHD and constant vorticity affect the flow. This study aims to shed light on this topic by investigating the combined influence of a horizontal electric field and constant vorticity on the free surface and the emergence of stagnation points. Using the Euler equations framework, we employ conformal mapping and pseudo-spectral numerical methods. Our findings reveal that increasing the electric field intensity eliminates stagnation points and smoothen the wave profile. This implies that a horizontal electric field acts as a mechanism for the elimination of stagnation points within the fluid body. Besides, we have identified regimes where three stagnation points appear on the free surface — something that cannot occur in purely gravity rotational waves.

    The effect of normal electric fields on the Stokes drift
    (American Institute of Physics Inc., 2026-01-01)
    In periodic wave motion, particles beneath the wave undergo a drift in the direction of wave propagation, a phenomenon known as Stokes drift. While extensive research has been conducted on Stokes drift in water wave flows, its counterpart in electrohydrodynamic flows remains relatively unexplored. Addressing this gap, we investigate Stokes drift beneath periodic traveling irrotational waves on a dielectric fluid under the effect of normal electric fields. Through numerical simulations utilizing conformal mapping, we compute particle trajectories and analyze the resultant Stokes drift behaviors beneath periodic traveling waves. Our findings indicate that variations in the electric field impact particle velocities while maintaining trajectory shapes. Moreover, the kinetic energy associated with a particle depends on its depth location and is a nondecreasing convex function in a fixed frame and a constant in a moving frame, as observed in water wave flows.
