Wetting dynamics of a collapsing fluid hole
Joshua Bostwick, Joshua Dijksman, Michael Shearer
The collapse dynamics of an axisymmetric fluid cavity that wets the bottom of a rotating bucket bound by vertical sidewalls are studied. Lubrication theory is applied to the govern…
Spatiotemporal measurement of surfactant distribution on gravity-capillary waves
Stephen L Strickland, Michael Shearer, Karen E Daniels
Materials adsorbed to the surface of a fluid -- for instance, crude oil, biogenic slicks, or industrial/medical surfactants -- will move in response to surface waves. Due to the di…
Dispersive and diffusive-dispersive shock waves for nonconvex conservation laws
G. A. El, M. A. Hoefer, M. Shearer
We consider two physically and mathematically distinct regularization mechanisms of scalar hyperbolic conservation laws. When the flux is convex, the combination of diffusion and d…
