Flapping instability of elastic disks in Stokes flows
Yijiang Yu, Hugo Perrin, Michael D. Graham +1
Fluid-structure interactions at low Reynolds number can lead to a much richer phenomenology than previously expected. Here, we study the dynamics of a freely suspended, thin elasti…
Free-space and near-wall dynamics of a flexible sheet sedimenting in Stokes flow
Yijiang Yu, Michael Graham
We present a numerical study of a thin elastic sheet with small extensibility freely sedimenting in a viscous fluid. Two scenarios are investigated: sedimentation in free space and…
Wrinkling and multiplicity in the dynamics of deformable sheets in uniaxial extensional flow
Yijiang Yu, Michael D. Graham
The processing of thin-structured materials in a fluidic environment, from nearly inextensible but flexible graphene sheets to highly extensible polymer films, arises in many appli…
Coil-stretch-like transition of elastic sheets in extensional flows
Yijiang Yu, Michael D. Graham
The conformation of a long linear polymer dissolved in fluid and exposed to an extensional flow is well-known to exhibit a "coil-stretch" transition, which for sufficiently long ch…
