We show how to achieve both fast and hyperuniform dispersions of particles in viscous fluids. To do so, we first extend the concept of critical random organization to chaotic drives. We show how palindromic sequences of chaotic advection…

Materials featuring anomalous suppression of density fluctuations over large length scales are emerging systems known as disordered hyperuniform. The underlying hidden order renders them appealing for several applications, such as light…

In nature, high-speed rain drops often impact and spread on curved surfaces e.g. tree leaves. Although a drop impact on a surface is a traditional topic for industrial applications, drop-impact dynamics on curved surfaces in natural…
