Quantitative coarse graining of laminar fluid flow penetration in rough boundaries
Akankshya Majhi, Lars Kool, Jasper van der Gucht +1
The interaction between a fluid and a wall is described with a certain boundary condition for the fluid velocity at the wall. To understand how fluids behave near a rough wall, the…

Infrasonic wave propagation in ultrasoft solids at low Reynolds numbers
Jan Maarten van Doorn, Ruben Higler, Ronald Wegh +4
The propagation of elastic waves in soft materials plays a crucial role in the spatio-temporal transmission of mechanical signals, e.g. in biological mechanotransduction or in the…
