Drag on a partially immersed sphere at the capillary scale
Robert Hunt, Ze Zhao, Eli Silver +3
We study the drag on a centimetric sphere in a uniform flow in the presence of a free surface as a function of submergence depth. Through direct force measurements in a custom benc…
Slamming Forces During Water Entry of a Simple Harmonic Oscillator
John T. Antolik, Jesse L. Belden, Nathan B. Speirs +1
When a blunt body impacts an air-water interface, large hydrodynamic forces often arise, a phenomenon many of us have unfortunately experienced in a failed dive or "belly flop." Be…
Hydrodynamic irreversibility of non-Brownian suspensions in highly confined duct flow
John T. Antolik, Amanda Howard, Fernando Vereda +3
The irreversible behavior of a highly confined non-Brownian suspension of spherical particles at low Reynolds number in a Newtonian fluid is studied experimentally and numerically.…
Theoretical modeling of capillary surfer interactions on a vibrating fluid bath
Anand U. Oza, Giuseppe Pucci, Ian Ho +1
We present and analyze a theoretical model for the dynamics and interactions of "capillary surfers," which are millimetric objects that self-propel while floating at the interface…
