Instability of a thin viscous film flowing under an inclined substrate: steady patterns

François Gallaire, Gioele Mariano Nicolò Balestra, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Gaëtan Pierre Clément Lerisson

The flow of a thin film coating the underside of an inclined substrate is studied. We measure experimentally spatial growth rates and compare them to the linear stability analysis of a flat film modelled by the lubrication equation. When forced by a statio ...

Hydrodynamic mechanisms of aggressive collapse events in leading edge cavitation

Mohamed Farhat, Ali Amini

Transient cavities generated from unsteady leading-edge cavitation may undergo aggressive collapses which are responsible for cavitation erosion. In this paper, we studied the hydrodynamic mechanisms of these events in the leading edge cavitation formed ov ...

Analysis of Spiral-Grooved Gas Journal Bearings by the Narrow-Groove Theory and the Finite Element Method At Large Eccentricities

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Eliott Philippe Guenat, Elia Iseli

A finite groove approach (FGA), based on the finite element method (FEM), is used for analyzing the static and dynamic behavior of spiral-grooved aerodynamic journal bearings at different eccentricities, number of grooves, and compressibility numbers. The ...

Turbulent patterns in wall-bounded shear flows: invariant solutions and their bifurcations

Florian Reetz

When laminar shear flows in large wall-bounded domains transition to turbulence, the flow exhibits spatio-temporally chaotic dynamics. Despite its chaotic dynamics, the flow may self-organize into characteristic spatially periodic patterns of unknown origi ...

Response of noise-amplifier flows: From linear control to nonlinear jet breakup

Isha Shukla

Among hydrodynamically unstable flows, the amplifier-flows are characterized by their large amplification potential in presence of external noise. Since amplifiers do not have an intrinsic dynamics, a chosen forcing can be applied to eventually control the ...

Rayleigh-Taylor instability under a spherical substrate

Gioele Mariano Nicolò Balestra, François Gallaire, David Minh-Phuc Nguyen

We investigate the Rayleigh-Taylor instability of a thin viscous film coating the inside of a spherical substrate. The aim of this work is to find and characterize the instability pattern in this spherical geometry. In contrast to the Rayleigh-Taylor insta ...

When droplets deform, break up and propel microswimmers

Giacomo Gallino

This thesis investigates the motion and breakup of droplets in low-Reynolds-number flows, focusing on two aspects. In the first part, we study the breakup of droplets in subcritical flow conditions, when there exists a linearly stable solution for the drop ...

How Are Turbulent Sensible Heat Fluxes and Snow Melt Rates Affected by a Changing Snow Cover Fraction?

Michael Lehning

The complex interaction between the atmospheric boundary layer and the heterogeneous land surface is typically not resolved in numerical models approximating the turbulent heat exchange processes. In this study, we consider the effect of the land surface h ...

Bidirectional motion of filaments: the role of motor proteins and passive cross linkers

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

In eukaryotic cells, motor proteins (MPs) bind to cytoskeletal filaments and move along them in a directed manner generating active stresses. During cell division a spindle structure of overlapping antiparallel microtubules forms whose stability and dynami ...

Isogeometric Analysis And Proper Orthogonal Decomposition For The Acoustic Wave Equation

Alfio Quarteroni, Shengfeng Zhu

Discretization methods such as finite differences or finite elements were usually employed to provide high fidelity solution approximations for reduced order modeling of parameterized partial differential equations. In this paper, a novel discretization te ...
