Density contrast matters for drop fragmentation thresholds at low Ohnesorge number
Florence Marcotte, Stéphane Zaleski
We address numerically the deformation and fragmentation dynamics of a single liquid drop subject to impulsive acceleration by a unidirectional gas stream. The density ratio betwee…

Impacts on viscous fluids: on ejecta, corolla and splashes
Florence Marcotte, Guy-Jean Michon, Thomas Séon +1
We investigate both experimentally and numerically the impact of liquid drops on deep pools of aqueous glycerol solutions with variable pool viscosity and air pressure. With this a…

Dynamo generated by the centrifugal instability
Florence Marcotte, Christophe Gissinger
We present a new scenario for magnetic field amplification where an electrically conducting fluid is confined in a differentially rotating, spherical shell with thin aspect-ratio.…
