Radical scaling: beyond our feet and fingers
Marc-Antoine Fardin, Mathieu Hautefeuille, Vivek Sharma
Scaling laws arise and are eulogized across disciplines from natural to social sciences for providing pithy, quantitative, `scale-free', and `universal' power law relationships bet…
The size of the Sun
Marc-Antoine Fardin, Mathieu Hautefeuille
Why does the Sun have a radius around 696000~km? We will see in this article that dimensional arguments can be used to understand the size of the Sun and of a few other things alon…
Dynamic duos: the building blocks of dimensional mechanics
Marc-Antoine Fardin, Mathieu Hautefeuille, Vivek Sharma
Mechanics studies the relationships between space, time, and matter, which can be expressed in terms of the dimensions of length , time , and mass $\mathc…
Metabolic cascades of energy
Marc-Antoine Fardin
Life has a special status, it even has its own science: biology. In many ways, the logic of life seems to differ from that of atoms, molecules, planets, or any other `inanimate obj…
Spreading, pinching, and coalescence: the Ohnesorge units
Marc-Antoine Fardin, Mathieu Hautefeuille, Vivek Sharma
Understanding the kinematics and dynamics of spreading, pinching, and coalescence of drops is critically important for a diverse range of applications involving spraying, printing,…
Shear Banding of Complex Fluids
Thibaut Divoux, Marc A. Fardin, Sébastien Manneville +1
Even in simple geometries many complex fluids display non-trivial flow fields, with regions where shear is concentrated. The possibility for such shear banding has been known since…
