Axisymmetric gravity currents in anisotropic porous media
GP Benham, JA Neufeld, AW Woods
We explore the motion of an axisymmetric gravity current in an anisotropic porous medium in which the horizontal permeability is larger than the vertical permeability. It is well k…
Two-phase gravity currents in layered porous media
GP Benham, MJ Bickle, JA Neufeld
We examine the effects of horizontally layered heterogeneities on the spreading of two-phase gravity currents in a porous medium, with application to numerous environmental flows,…
Indentation of a floating elastic sheet: Geometry versus applied tension
Finn Box, Dominic Vella, Robert Style +1
The localized loading of an elastic sheet floating on a liquid bath occurs at scales from a frog sitting on a lily pad to a volcano supported by the Earth's tectonic plates. The lo…
Maximal liquid bridges between horizontal cylinders
Himantha Cooray, Herbert E. Huppert, Jerome A. Neufeld
We investigate two-dimensional liquid bridges trapped between pairs of identical horizontal cylinders. The cylinders support forces due to surface tension and hydrostatic pressure…
Viscous control of peeling an elastic sheet by bending and pulling
John R. Lister, Gunnar G Peng, Jerome A Neufeld
Propagation of a viscous fluid beneath an elastic sheet is controlled by local dynamics at the peeling front, in close analogy with the capillary-driven spreading of drops over a p…
Axisymmetric viscous gravity currents flowing over a porous medium
Melissa J. Spannuth, Jerome A. Neufeld, J. S. Wettlaufer +1
We study the axisymmetric propagation of a viscous gravity current over a deep porous medium into which it also drains. A model for the propagation and drainage of the current is d…
