Forced imbibition in porous media: a fourfold scenario
Céleste Odier, Bertrand Levaché, Enrich Santanach-Carreras +1
We establish a comprehensive description of the patterns formed when a wetting liquid displaces a viscous fluid confined in a porous medium. Building on model microfluidic experime…

Revisiting the Saffman-Taylor experiment: imbibition patterns and liquid-entrainment transitions
Bertrand Levaché, Denis Bartolo
We revisit the Saffman-Taylor experiment focusing on the forced-imbibition regime where the displacing fluid wets the confining walls. We demonstrate a new class of invasion patter…

Geometric scaling of purely-elastic flow instabilities
J. Zilz, R. J. Poole, M. A. Alves +3
We present a combined experimental, numerical and theoretical investigation of the geometric scaling of the onset of a purely-elastic flow instability in a serpentine channel. Good…
