A pressure impulse theory for hemispherical liquid impact problems

Julien Philippi, Arnaud Antkowiak, Pierre-Yves Lagrée

Liquid impact problems for hemispherical fluid domain are considered. By using the concept of pressure impulse we show that the solution of the flow induced by the impact is reduce…

Spontaneous surface reserve formation in wicked membranes bestow extreme stretchability

Paul Grandgeorge, Natacha Krins, Aurélie Hourlier-Fargette +3

Soft stretchable materials are key for arising technologies such as stretchable electronics or batteries, smart textiles, biomedical devices, tissue engineering and soft robotics.…

Coiling of an elastic beam inside a disk: A model for spider-capture silk

Hervé Elettro, Fritz Vollrath, Sébastien Neukirch +1

Motivated by recent experimental observations of capillary-induced spooling of fibers inside droplets both in spider capture silk and in synthetic systems, we investigate the behav…

In-drop capillary spooling of spider capture thread inspires hybrid fibers with mixed solid-liquid mechanical properties

Hervé Elettro, Sébastien Neukirch, Fritz Vollrath +1

An essential element in the web-trap architecture, the capture silk spun by ecribellate orb spiders consists of glue droplets sitting astride a silk filament. Mechanically this thr…

Jets from Hollows

Thomas Seon, Elisabeth Ghabache, Arnaud Antkowiak

This fluid dynamics video presents the gravity-driven jets induced by the relaxation of large prolate bubbles or large holes at a free liquid surface. It shows that the jet develop…
