Local waiting time fluctuations along a randomly pinned crack front
Knut Jørgen Måløy, Stéphane Santucci, Jean Schmittbuhl +1
The propagation of an interfacial crack along a heterogeneous weak plane of a transparent Plexiglas block is followed using a high resolution fast camera. We show that the fracture…
The roughness of stylolites: Implications of 3D high resolution topography measurements
Jean Schmittbuhl, Francois Renard, Jean-Pierre Gratier +1
Stylolites are natural pressure-dissolution surfaces in sedimentary rocks. We present 3D high resolution measurements at laboratory scales of their complex roughness. The topograph…
Influence of pore-scale disorder on viscous fingering during drainage
Renaud Toussaint, Grunde Løvoll, Yves Méheust +2
We study viscous fingering during drainage experiments in linear Hele-Shaw cells filled with a random porous medium. The central zone of the cell is found to be statistically more…
