Revisiting creeping viscoelastic cross-slot flow: Global linear stability and structural sensitivity analyses
Kun Zhang, Zhanwen Wang, Lailai Zhu
The viscoelastic instability of cross-slot flow was first observed experimentally almost half a century ago and reproduced numerically two decades ago, yet its physical origin rema…

Self-diffusiophoretic propulsion of a spheroidal particle in a shear-thinning fluid
Guangpu Zhu, Brandon van Gogh, Lailai Zhu +2
Shear-thinning viscosity is a non-Newtonian behaviour that active particles often encounter in biological fluids such as blood and mucus. The fundamental question of how this ubiqu…
