Consider the complete n-vertex graph whose edge-lengths are independent exponentially distributed random variables. Simultaneously for each pair of vertices, put a constant flow between them along the shortest path. Each edge gets some…
We study the propulsive properties of rectangular and rhombic lattices of flapping plates at O(10--100) Reynolds numbers in incompressible flow. We vary five parameters: flapping amplitude, frequency (or Reynolds number), horizontal and…
We study the statistics of the linear flow in a punctured honeycomb lattice, or equivalently the free motion of a particle on a regular hexagonal billiard table with holes of equal size at the corners and obeying the customary reflection…
We consider the standard first passage percolation model in $\ZZ^d$ for $d\geq 2$ and we study the maximal flow from the upper half part to the lower half part (respectively from the top to the bottom) of a cylinder whose basis is a…
For axisymmetric flows without swirl and compactly supported initial vorticity, we prove the upper bound of $t^{4/3}$ for the growth of the vorticity maximum, which was conjectured by Childress [Phys. D, 2008] and supported by numerical…
We consider the standard model of i.i.d. first passage percolation on Z^d given a distribution G on [0, +$\infty$] (including +$\infty$). We suppose that G({0}) > 1 -- p\_c(d), i.e., the edges of positive passage time are in the subcritical…
The solution of the two-fluids plane or axisymetric Poiseuille flow is derived analytically. Then, the conditions for the maximum flow rate of the most viscous fluid are analyzed in terms of fluids volume fractions. The axisymmetric case is…
We prove several geometric theorems using tools from the theory of convex optimization. In the Riemannian setting, we prove the max flow-min cut theorem for boundary regions, applied recently to develop a "bit-thread" interpretation of…

The quantum fluctuations of the flux tube joining two static sources in the confining phase of a lattice gauge theory are described by an effective string theory. The predictions of the latter for ratios of Wilson loops of equal perimeter…
Steady incompressible potential flows of an inviscid or viscous fluid are considered in infinite N-dimensional cylinders with tangential boundary conditions. We show that such flows, if away from stagnation, are constant and parallel to the…
We consider open multi-class queueing networks with general arrival processes, general processing time sequences and Bernoulli routing. The network is assumed to be operating under an arbitrary work-conserving scheduling policy that makes…
Using time-series of stereoscopic particle image velocimetry data, we study the response of a turbulent von K\'{a}rm\'{a}n swirling flow to a continuous breaking of its forcing symmetry. Experiments are carried over a wide Reynolds number…
We report a theory deriving bulk flow scaling for canonical wall-bounded flows. The theory accounts for the symmetries of boundary geometry (flat plate channel versus circular pipe) by a variational calculation for a large-scale energy…
In this article we establish linear inviscid damping with optimal decay rates around 2D Taylor-Couette flow and similar monotone flows in an annular domain $B_{r_{2}}(0) \setminus B_{r_{1}}(0) \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$. Following recent…
Numerical analysis of unconfined flow over an obstacle has always been challenging in computational fluid dynamics due to the truncation of the computational domain while replicating the real-life flows and the application of the boundary…
The Betz limit expresses the maximum proportion of the kinetic energy flux incident on an energy conversion device that can be extracted from an unbounded flow. The derivation of the Betz limit requires an assumption of steady flow through…
It is already known that in multicast (single source, multiple sinks) network, random linear network coding can achieve the maximum flow upper bound. In this paper, we investigate how random linear network coding behaves in general…
We show a fast algorithm for determining the set of edges in a planar undirected unweighted graph, whose deletion reduces the maximum flow between two fixed vertices. This is a special case of the max flow vitality problem, that has been…
