Compaction in a deformable porous cylinder with elastic boundaries
Richard Mcnair, Kerstin Schirrmann, Anne Juel +1
Perfusion of soft materials such as biological tissue or hydrogels is essential for the functioning of organ and laboratory systems such as chromatographic columns and bioreactors.…
Exogenous-endogenous surfactant interaction yields heterogeneous spreading in complex branching networks
Richard Mcnair, Fernando Temprano-Coleto, François J. Peaudecerf +4
Experiments have shown that surfactant introduced to a liquid-filled maze can find the solution path. We reveal how the maze-solving dynamics arise from interactions between the ad…
Confinement-induced drift in Marangoni-driven transport of surfactant: a Lagrangian perspective
Richard Mcnair, Oliver E. Jensen, Julien R. Landel
Successive drops of coloured ink mixed with surfactant are deposited onto a thin film of water to create marbling patterns in the Japanese art technique of Suminagashi. To understa…
Surfactant spreading in a two-dimensional cavity and emergent contact-line singularities
Richard Mcnair, Oliver E. Jensen, Julien R. Landel
We model the advective Marangoni spreading of insoluble surfactant at the free surface of a viscous fluid that is confined within a two-dimensional rectangular cavity. Interfacial…
