Collective stresses drive competition between monolayers of normal and Ras-transformed cells
Sarah Moitrier, Carles Blanch-Mercader, Simon Garcia +6
We study the competition for space between two cell lines that differ only in the expression of the Ras oncogene. The two cell populations are initially separated and set to migrat…
Experimental study of convection in the compressible regime
Rémi Menaut, Yoann Corre, Ludovic Huguet +6
An experiment of thermal convection with significant compressible effects is presented. The high-gravity environment of a centrifuge and the choice of xenon gas enable us to observ…
Growth of clogs in parallel microchannels
Alban Sauret, Katarzyna Somszor, Emmanuel Villermaux +1
During the transport of colloidal suspensions in microchannels, the deposition of particles can lead to the formation of clogs, typically at constrictions. Once a clog is formed in…
Wall friction and Janssen effect in the solidification of suspensions
Brice Saint-Michel, Marc Georgelin, Sylvain Deville +1
We address the mechanical effect of rigid boundaries on freezing suspensions. For this we perform the directional solidification of monodispersed suspensions in thin samples and we…
Turbulent kinematic dynamos in ellipsoids driven by mechanical forcing
K. Sandeep Reddy, Benjamin Favier, Michael Le Bars
Dynamo action in planetary cores has been extensively studied in the context of convectively-driven flows. We show in this letter that mechanical forcings, namely tides, libration…
Evolution and characteristics of forced shear flows in polytropic atmospheres: Large and small Péclet number regimes
V. Witzke, L. J. Silvers, B. Favier
Complex mixing and magnetic field generation occurs within stellar interiors particularly where there is a strong shear flow. To obtain a comprehensive understanding of these proce…
