Stable and unstable capillary fingering in porous media with a gradient in grains size
Tom Vincent-Dospital, Marcel Moura, Renaud Toussaint +1
We present a theoretical and experimental investigation of slow drainage in porous media with a gradient in the grains size (and hence in the typical pores' throats), in an externa…
Heat emitting damage in skin: a thermal pathway for mechanical algesia
Tom Vincent-Dospital, Renaud Toussaint, Knut Jørgen Måløy
Mechanical pain (or mechanical algesia) can both be a vital mechanism warning us for dangers or an undesired medical symptom important to mitigate. Thus, a comprehensive understand…
Frictional anisotropy of 3D-printed fault surfaces
Tom Vincent-Dospital, Alain Steyer, François Renard +1
The surface morphology of faults controls the spatial anisotropy of their frictional properties, and hence their mechanical stability. Such anisotropy is only rarely studied in sei…
Thermally activated intermittent dynamics of creeping crack fronts along disordered interfaces
Tom Vincent-Dospital, Alain Cochard, Stéphane Santucci +2
We present a subcritical fracture growth model, coupled with the elastic redistribution of the acting mechanical stress along rugous rupture fronts. We show the ability of this mod…
Thermal dissipation as both the strength and weakness of matter. A material failure prediction by monitoring creep
Tom Vincent-Dospital, Renaud Toussaint, Alain Cochard +2
In any domain involving some stressed solids, that is, from seismology to general engineering, the strength of matter is a paramount feature to understand. We here discuss the abil…
Thermo-mechanical pain: the signaling role of heat dissipation in biological tissues
Tom Vincent-Dospital, Renaud Toussaint
Mechanical algesia is an important process for the preservation of living organisms, allowing potentially life-saving reflexes or decisions when given body parts are stressed. Yet,…
