In graphene, where the electron-electron scattering is dominant, electrons collectively act as a fluid. This hydrodynamic behaviour of charge carriers leads to exciting nonlinear phenomena such as solitary waves and shocks, among others. In…

Small heavy particles in a fluid flow respond to the flow on a time-scale proportional to their inertia, or Stokes number St. Their behaviour is thought to be gradually modified as St increases. We show, in the steady spatially-periodic…

Stokes flows are a type of fluid flow where convective forces are small in comparison with viscous forces, and momentum transport is entirely due to viscous diffusion. Besides being routinely used as benchmark test cases in numerical fluid…

Secondary flows are ubiquitous in channel flows, where small velocity components perpendicular to the main velocity appear due to the complexity of the channel geometry and/or that of the flow itself such as from inertial or non-Newtonian…

The evaporation of sessile drops in quiescent air is usually governed by vapour diffusion. For contact angles below $90^\circ$, the evaporative flux from the droplet tends to diverge in the vicinity of the contact line. Therefore, the…
We study a robust topological transport carried by vortices in a thin film of an easy-plane ferromagnetic insulator between two metal contacts. A vortex, which is a nonlocal topological spin texture in two-dimensional magnets, exhibits some…

Hydrodynamic flow occurs in an electron liquid when the mean free path for electron-electron collisions is the shortest length scale in the problem. In this regime, transport is described by the Navier-Stokes equation, which contains two…
