Intruder dynamics in granular media under localized surface loading

E. M. Franklin, B. Darbois Texier, A. Seguin +2

We experimentally investigate the dynamics of a spherical intruder driven horizontally at a constant force in a granular medium subjected to a localized surface overload. While int…

Preferential orientation of slender elastic floaters in gravity waves

Wietze Herreman, Basile Dhote, Frederic Moisy

Slender floaters drifting in propagating gravity waves slowly rotate towards a preferential state of orientation with respect to the angle of incidence. This angular drift arises f…

Controlling the collective transport of large passive particles with suspensions of microorganisms

Taha Laroussi, Julien Bouvard, Etienne Jambon-Puillet +2

A promising approach to transport cargo at the microscale lies within the use of self-propelled microorganisms, whose motion entrains that of passive particles. However, most appli…

Laboratory observation of internal gravity wave turbulence in a three-dimensional, large-scale facility

Nicolas Lanchon, Samuel Boury, Pierre-Philippe Cortet

The search for solutions to the theory of weakly non-linear internal gravity wave turbulence is an active research topic. It is notably stimulated by the fact that this regime coul…

Vane rheology of a fiber-reinforced granular material

Ladislas Wierzchalek, Georges Gauthier, Baptiste Darbois-Texier

The addition of a small quantity of flexible fibers in a granular material is an efficient technique to increase the yield stress of the material. While the influence of fiber addi…

Nascent water waves induced by the impulsive motion of a solid wall

Wladimir Sarlin, Zhaodong Niu, Alban Sauret +2

In the present study, we investigated the generation phase of laboratory-scale water waves induced by the impulsive motion of a rigid piston, whose maximum velocity and total s…
