We investigate a one-dimensional model describing the motion of liquid drops sliding down an inclined plane (the so-called quasi-static approximation model). We prove existence and uniqueness of a solution and investigate its long time…
A non--relativistic and relativistic model in which astrophysical jets are deflected on passing through an isothermal high density region is analysed. The criteria for the stability of jets due to the formation of internal shocks are…
We investigate the dynamics of a "bungee-jumper" jet induced by an impulsive force, which retracts after reaching its peak extension. Despite the strongly extensional and highly nonequilibrium nature of this motion, the jet exhibits simple…
A droplet impacting a deep fluid bath is as common as rain over the ocean. If the impact is sufficiently gentle, the mediating air layer remains intact, and the droplet may rebound completely from the interface. In this work, we…
We propose a method to identify jets consisting of all the visible remnants of boosted top particles when these decay semileptonically to electrons. Within these jets, the electron shower overlaps with the shower initiated by the $b$ quark,…
Axis switching of a jet ejected from a rectangular nozzle affects flow mixing characteristics. To elucidate such a mixing mechanism, the axis switching and vortex structure deformation should be investigated in detail. This study performed…
The liquid cone-jet mode can be produced upon stimulation by a co-flowing gas sheath. Most applications deal with the jet breakup, leading to either of two droplet generation regimes: jetting and dripping. The cone-jet flow pattern is…
The Plateau-Rayleigh theory essentially explains the breakup of liquid jets as due to growing perturbations along the length of the jet. The essential idea is supported by several experiments carried out in the past. Recently, the existence…
Helped by the careful analysis of their experimental data, Worthington (1897) described roughly the mechanism underlying the formation of high-speed jets ejected after the impact of an axisymmetric solid on a liquid-air interface. In this…
Consider the three-dimensional flow of a viscous Newtonian fluid upon an abitrarily curved substrate when the fluid film is thin as occurs in many draining, coating and biological flows. We derive a model of the dynamics of the film, the…
The environmental impact of pollutants and effluents discharged into the atmosphere or the oceans has led researchers to conduct studies related to this issue. Several works have been carried out in this context in order to reduce the…
If a body of inviscid fluid is disturbed, it will typically eject a jet of fluid. If the effects of gravity and surface tension are negligible, these jets travel in straight lines, with the tips approaching a constant velocity. It has been…
The impact of a collapsing gas bubble above rigid, notched walls is considered. Such surface crevices and imperfections often function as bubble nucleation sites, and thus have a direct relation to cavitation-induced erosion and damage…
We consider the motion of a droplet bouncing on a vibrating bath of the same fluid in the presence of a central potential. We formulate a rotation symmetry-reduced description of this system, which allows for the straightforward application…
Pilot-wave hydrodynamics concerns the dynamics of 'walkers,' droplets walking on a vibrating bath, and has provided the basis for the burgeoning field of hydrodynamic quantum analogs. We here explore a theoretical model of pilot-wave…
The nature of physical processes can depend substantially on the dimensionality of a system. One such example are buckling instabilities, which arise from the competition between axial compression and bending in elastic filaments. Thus,…
The present paper is dedicated to the development of a numerical model for the water impact of two-dimensional (2D) and axisymmetric bodies with imposed motion. The work is a first step towards the implementation of a 2D+t procedure to be…
In melt-blowing processes mico- and nanofibers are produced by the extrusion of polymeric jets into a directed, turbulent high-speed airflow. Up to now the physical mechanism for the drastic jet thinning is not fully understood, since in…
A three-dimensional round liquid jet within a low-speed coaxial gas flow is numerically simulated and explained via vortex dynamics ($\lambda_2$ method). The instabilities on the liquid-gas interface reflect well the vortex interactions…
Zonal jets are striking and beautiful examples of the propensity for geophysical turbulent flows to spontaneously self-organize into robust, large scale coherent structures. There exist many dynamical mechanisms for the formation of zonal…
