Figure 4: Rotating drift mechanism.

From: Wave-based liquid-interface metamaterials

Figure 4

(a) Experimentally measured 3D trajectory (red) of a surface particle drifting within a unit cell and its projection on the horizontal plane (green) (experiments, f=ω/2π=3.9 Hz, λ=104 mm, H=2.5 mm). (b) Positions of an imaging particle (yellow dot) on the 3D trajectory at three consecutive moments in time within half a wave period. See Supplementary Movie 2 for details. Blue surfaces show the rotation of the liquid surface measured simultaneously with the particle position.
