Instability of microbial droplets growing on viscous substrates
Vicente Gomez Herrera, Scott Weady
We develop and analyze a model for a flat microbial droplet growing on the surface of a three-dimensional viscous fluid. The model describes growth-induced stresses at the fluid su…
Velocity optimization of self-equilibrated obstacles in a two-dimensional viscous flow
Gilles A. Francfort, Alessandro Giacomini, Scott Weady
An obstacle is immersed in an externally driven 2D Stokes or Navier-Stokes fluid. We study the self-equilibration conditions for that obstacle under steady state assumptions on the…
Anomalous convective flows carve pinnacles and scallops in melting ice
Scott Weady, Joshua Tong, Alexandra Zidovska +1
We report on the shape dynamics of ice suspended in cold fresh water and subject to the natural convective flows generated during melting. Experiments reveal shape motifs for incre…
