How pore-scale disorder controls fluid stretching in porous media
J. Kevin Pierce, Tanguy Le Borgne, Francois Renard +1
Fluid stretching in porous media governs the mixing of reactants, contaminants, and nutrients, yet how the solid microstructure controls the stretching statistics remains poorly un…

On the concentration distribution in turbulent thermals
Ludovic Huguet, Victor Lherm, Renaud Deguen +2
Turbulent thermals emerge in a wide variety of geophysical and industrial flows, such as atmospheric cumulus convection and pollutant dispersal in oceans and lakes. When a buoyant…
