Stacked Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities grow drops into soft stalactite-like structures
Barath Venkateswaran, Trevor J. Jones, Grace Kresge +3
The interplay between thin film hydrodynamics and solidification produces formidably intricate geophysical structures, such as stalactites and icicles, whose shape is a testimony o…
Too fast to grow: Dynamics of pendant drops sliding on a thin film
Etienne Jambon-Puillet, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, François Gallaire +1
Pendant drops suspended on the underside of a wet substrate are known to accumulate fluid from the surrounding thin liquid film, a process that often results in dripping. The growt…
Breaking anchored droplets in a microfluidic Hele-Shaw cell
Gabriel Amselem, P. T. Brun, François Gallaire +1
We study microfluidic self digitization in Hele-Shaw cells using pancake droplets anchored to surface tension traps. We show that above a critical flow rate, large anchored droplet…
Rayleigh-Taylor instability under an inclined plane
P. -T Brun, Adam Damiano, Pierre Rieu +2
We revisit the canonical Rayleigh-Taylor instability and investigate the case of a thin film of fluid upon the underside of an inclined plane. The presence of a natural flow along…
