Similarity Solutions of Shock Formation for First-order Strictly Hyperbolic Systems
Jun Eshima, Luc Deike, Howard A. Stone
Shocks due to hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) appear throughout mathematics and science. The canonical example is shock formation in the inviscid Burgers' equation…
Design of model Boger fluids with systematically controlled viscoelastic properties
Jonghyun Hwang, Howard A. Stone
The subject of viscoelastic flow phenomena is crucial to many areas of engineering and the physical sciences. Although much of our understanding of viscoelastic flow features stems…
Retraction Dynamics of a Highly Viscous Liquid Sheet
Taosif Ahsan, Rodolfo Brandão, Benny Davidovitch +1
We study the one-dimensional capillary-driven retraction of a finite, planar liquid sheet in the asymptotic regime where both the Ohnesorge number and the initial len…
Revealing Actual Viscoelastic Relaxation Times in Capillary Breakup
Nan Hu, Jonghyun Hwang, Tachin Ruangkriengsin +1
We use experiments and theory to elucidate the size effect in capillary breakup rheometry, where pre-stretching in the visco-capillary stage causes the apparent relaxation time to…
Close-contact melting on hydrophobic textured surfaces: Confinement and meniscus effects
Nan Hu, Liwu Fan, Xiang Gao +1
We investigate the dynamics of close-contact melting (CCM) on gas-trapped hydrophobic surfaces, with specific focus on the effects of geometrical confinement and the liquid-air men…
Transient rod-climbing in an Oldroyd-B fluid
Tachin Ruangkriengsin, Rodolfo Brandão, Katie Wu +3
The Weissenberg effect, or rod-climbing phenomenon, occurs in non-Newtonian fluids where the fluid interface ascends along a rotating rod. Despite its prominence, theoretical insig…
