Air-cushioning effect and Kelvin-Helmholtz instability before the slamming of a disk on water
Utkarsh Jain, Anais Gauthier, Detlef Lohse +1
The macroscopic dynamics of a droplet impacting a solid is crucially determined by the intricate air dynamics occurring at the vanishingly small length scale between droplet and su…
Impact of a microfluidic jet onto a pendant droplet
Miguel A. Quetzeri-Santiago, Ian W. Hunter, Devaraj van der Meer +1
High speed microfluidic jets can be generated by a thermocavitation process: from the evaporation of the liquid inside a microfluidic channel, a rapidly expanding bubble is formed…
Air Entrapment and its effect on Pressure Impulses in the slamming of a Flat Disc on Water
Utkarsh Jain, Patricia Vega-Martínez, Devaraj van der Meer
The presence of ambient air in liquid-slamming events plays a crucial role in influencing the shape of the liquid surface prior to the impact, and the distribution of loads created…
Modelling large scale airgun-bubble dynamics with highly non-spherical features
Shuai Li, Devaraj van der Meer, A-Man Zhang +2
A thorough understanding of the dynamics of meter-sized airgun-bubbles is very crucial to seabed geophysical exploration. In this study, we use the boundary integral method to inve…
Phase Diagram of Vertically Shaken Granular Matter
Peter Eshuis, Ko van der Weele, Devaraj van der Meer +2
A shallow, vertically shaken granular bed in a quasi 2-D container is studied experimentally yielding a wider variety of phenomena than in any previous study: (1) bouncing bed, (2)…
