Axisymmetric displacement flows in fluid-driven fractures

Sri Savya Tanikella, Emilie Dressaire

Displacement flows are common in hydraulic fracturing, as fracking fluids of different composition are injected sequentially in the fracture. The injection of an immiscible fluid a…

Clog mitigation in a microfluidic array via pulsatile flows

Brian Dincau, Connor Tang, Emilie Dressaire +1

Clogging is a common obstacle encountered during the transport of suspensions and represents a significant energy and material cost across applications, including water purificatio…

Capillary filtering of particles during dip coating

Alban Sauret, Adrien Gans, Benedicte Colnet +3

An object withdrawn from a liquid bath is coated with a thin layer of liquid. Along with the liquid, impurities such as particles present in the bath can be transferred to the with…

Capillary Sorting of Particles by Dip Coating

Brian M. Dincau, Martin Z. Bazant, Emilie Dressaire +1

In this letter, we describe the capillary sorting of particles by size based on dip coating. A substrate withdrawn from a liquid bath entrains a coating whose thickness depends on…

Dip-coating of suspensions

A. Gans, E. Dressaire, B. Colnet +3

Withdrawing a plate from a suspension leads to the entrainment of a coating layer of fluid and particles on the solid surface. In this article, we study the Landau-Levich problem i…

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…

Drop morphologies on flexible fibers: influence of elastocapillary effects

Alban Sauret, Francois Boulogne, Katarzyna Somszor +2

Various materials are made of long thin fibers that are randomly oriented to form a complex network in which drops of wetting liquid tend to accumulate at the nodes. The capillary…

Mushroom spore dispersal by convectively-driven winds

Emilie Dressaire, Lisa Yamada, Boya Song +1

Thousands of fungal species rely on mushroom spores to spread across landscapes. It has long been thought that spores depend on favorable airflows for dispersal -- that active cont…

Drop impact on a flexible fiber

Emilie Dressaire, Alban Sauret, François Boulogne +1

When droplets impact fibrous media, the liquid can be captured by the fibers or contact then break away. Previous studies have shown that the efficiency of drop capture by a rigid…

Defining individual size in the model filamentous fungus

Linda Ma, Boya Song, Thomas Curran +3

It is challenging to apply the tenets of individuality to filamentous fungi: a fungal mycelium can contain millions of genetically diverse but totipotent nuclei, each capable of fo…

Wetting morphologies on randomly oriented fibers

Alban Sauret, François Boulogne, Beatrice Soh +2

We characterize the different morphologies adopted by a drop of liquid placed on two randomly oriented fibers, which is a first step toward understanding the wetting of fibrous net…

Wetting morphologies on an array of fibers of different radii

Alban Sauret, François Boulogne, David Cébron +2

We investigate the equilibrium morphology of a finite volume of liquid placed on two parallel rigid fibers of different radii. As observed for identical radii fibers, the liquid is…

Mechanical tuning of the evaporation rate of liquid on crossed fibers

François Boulogne, Alban Sauret, Beatrice Soh +2

We investigate experimentally the drying of a small volume of perfectly wetting liquid on two crossed fibers. We characterize the drying dynamics for the three liquid morphologies…

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…

Damping of liquid sloshing by foams

Alban Sauret, François Boulogne, Jean Cappello +2

When a container is set in motion, the free surface of the liquid starts to oscillate or slosh. Such effects can be observed when a glass of water is handled carelessly and the flu…

Clogging by sieving in microchannels: Application to the detection of contaminants in colloidal suspensions

Alban Sauret, Erin C. Barney, Adeline Perro +3

We report on a microfluidic method that allows measurement of a small concentration of large contaminants in suspensions of solid micrometer-scale particles. To perform the measure…
