Harmonic moment dynamics in Laplacian growth
Alexander Leshchiner, Matthew Thrasher, Mark B. Mineev-Weinstein +1
Harmonic moments are integrals of integer powers of z = x+iy over a domain. Here the domain is an exterior of a bubble of air growing in an oil layer between two horizontal closely…
The Bouncing Jet: A Newtonian Liquid Rebounding off a Free Surface
Matthew Thrasher, Sunghwan Jung, Yee Kwong Pang +2
We find that a liquid jet can bounce off a bath of the same liquid if the bath is moving horizontally with respect to the jet. Previous observations of jets rebounding off a bath (…
The Universality Class of Diffusion Limited Aggregation and Viscous Fingering
Joachim Mathiesen, Itamar Procaccia, Harry L. Swinney +1
We investigate whether fractal viscous fingering and diffusion limited aggregates are in the same scaling universality class. We bring together the largest available viscous finger…
Fjords in viscous fingering: Selection of width and opening angle
Leif Ristroph, Matthew Thrasher, Mark B. Mineev-Weinstein +1
Our experiments on viscous fingering of air into oil contained between closely spaced plates reveal two selection rules for the fjords of oil that separate fingers of air. (Fjords…
