Ridged geometries induce axial flow vortices in Couette systems
Akankshya Majhi, Maria Raquel Serial, Lars Kool +2
A yield stress fluid has a critical stress above which the material starts to flow. Typically, the yield stress behaviour is captured in the Herschel-Bulkley (HB) model, which assu…
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…
Instabilities of a thin liquid film in a funnel
T. -S. Lin, J. A. Dijksman, L. Kondic
We explore flow of a completely wetting fluid in a funnel, with particular focus on contact line instabilities at the fluid front. While the flow in a funnel may be related to a nu…
Thermal Marangoni-driven Dynamics of Spinning Liquid Films
Joshua A. Dijksman, Shomeek Mukhopadhyay, Robert P. Behringer +1
Spin coating of thin films of viscous liquids on a rotating substrate is a core technological component of semiconductor microchip fabrication. The thinning dynamics is influenced…
Wetting dynamics of a collapsing fluid hole
Joshua Bostwick, Joshua Dijksman, Michael Shearer
The collapse dynamics of an axisymmetric fluid cavity that wets the bottom of a rotating bucket bound by vertical sidewalls are studied. Lubrication theory is applied to the govern…
Obtaining Self-similar Scalings in Focusing Flows
Joshua A. Dijksman, Shomeek Mukhopadhyay, Cameron Gaebler +2
The surface structure of converging thin fluid films displays self-similar behavior, as was shown in the work by Diez et al [Q. Appl. Math 210, 155, 1990]. Extracting the related s…
