The influence of initial conditions on turbulent mixing due to Richtmyer–Meshkov instability† (2010, background): “A number of studies have focused on the influence of initial conditions on the multi-mode RT instability (see e.g. Dimonte et al. 2004), and on the RM instability with an ‘egg carton’ two-mode initial condition (see e.g. Cohen et al. 2002 or Hill, Pantano & Pullin 2006).”
