Stability of a granular layer on an inclined "fakir plane"

Jesica Benito, Yann Bertho, Irene Ippolito +1

We present here experimental results on the effect of a forest of cylinder obstacles (nails) on the stability of a granular layer over a rough incline, in a so-called "fakir plane"…

The buckling and invagination process during consolidation of colloidal droplets

François Boulogne, Frédérique Giorgiutti-Dauphiné, Ludovic Pauchard

Drying a droplet of colloidal dispersion can result in complex pattern formation due to both development and deformation of a skin at the drop surface. The present study focus on t…

Self-Sustained Reaction Fronts in Porous Media

Severine Atis, Sandeep Saha, Harold Auradou +2

We analyze experimentally chemical waves propagation in the disordered flow field of a porous medium. The reaction fronts travel at a constant velocity which drastically depends on…

Effect of a non-volatile cosolvent on crack pattern induced by desiccation of a colloidal gel

François Boulogne, Ludovic Pauchard, Frédérique Giorgiutti-Dauphiné

Consolidation of colloidal gels results in enormous stresses that are usually released in the formation of undesirable cracks. The capacity of a gel network to crack during drying…

Instability and morphology of polymer solutions coating a fiber

François Boulogne, Ludovic Pauchard, Frédérique Giorgiutti-Dauphiné

We report an experimental study on the dynamics of a thin film of polymer solution coating a vertical fiber. The liquid film has first a constant thickness and then undergoes the R…

Inertial waves and modes excited by the libration of a rotating cube

J. Boisson, C. Lamriben, L. R. M. Maas +2

We report experimental measurements of the flow in a cubic container submitted to a longitudinal libration, i.e. a rotation modulated in time. Velocity fields in a vertical and a h…
