Beads, bubbles and drops in microchannels: stability of centered position and equilibrium velocity
Jean Cappello, Javier Rivero-Rodrìguez, Youen Vitry +3
Understand and predict the dynamics of dispersed micro-objects in microfluidics is crucial in numerous natural, industrial and technological situations. In this paper, we experimen…
Fiber buckling in confined viscous flows: an absolute instability described by the Ginzburg-Landau equation
Jean Cappello, Olivia du Roure, François Gallaire +2
We explore the dynamics of a flexible fiber transported by a viscous flow in a Hele-Shaw cell of height comparable to the fiber height. We show that long fibers aligned with the fl…
Microfluidic In Situ Measurement of Poisson's Ratio of Hydrogels
Jean Cappello, Vincent d'Herbemont, Anke Lindner +1
Being able to precisely characterize the mechanical properties of soft microparticles is essential for numerous situations from the understanding of the flow of biological fluids t…
Controlling transport dynamics of confined asymmetric fibers
M. Bechert, J. Cappello, M. Daïeff +3
Transport properties of particles in confining geometries show very specific characteristics as lateral drift, oscillatory movement between lateral walls or the deformation of flex…
Transport of flexible fibers in confined micro-channels
Jean Cappello, Mathias Bechert, Camille Duprat +3
When transported in confined geometries rigid fibers show interesting transport dynamics induced by friction with the top and bottom walls. Fiber flexibility causes an additional c…
Damping of liquid sloshing by foams: from everyday observations to liquid transport
Jean Cappello, Alban Sauret, François Boulogne +2
We perform experiments on the sloshing dynamics of liquids in a rectangular container submitted to an impulse. We show that when foam is placed on top of the liquid the oscillation…
