When a drop impacts a deep pool, it forms a crater which subsequently rebounds. Under certain conditions, a dimple forms at the crater bottom, which pinches off to entrap a small bubble. The oscillation of this entrapped bubble is the…
Experiments have shown that in dilute suspension flow at laminar state through a circular tube particles migrate towards a concentric annular region with a mean radius of about 0.6 of the tube radius. This phenomenon is well-known as the…
A negative bubble, coined antibubble, is composed by a thin air shell that is immersed in a soapy mixture. A large vortex is generated in the liquid using a mixer. An antibubble is then created close to the surface. The antibubble is fastly…
The short-term transient falling dynamics of a dripping water drop in quiescent air has been investigated through both simulation and experiment. The focus is on the short term behavior and the time range considered covers about eight…
A vortices-bubble system may be depicted by some features which may lead to infer its acoustic charge and its spin angular momentum. We study the dynamics of this system within the framework of fluid physics and with the help of Maxwell's…
There are numerous devices currently known with the purpose of reducing the irregularity of the flow upstream of the propeller and to decrease by that means the propeller-induced vibration and noise. Many of these devices are wing-shaped…
We study the instability of a superfluid flow through a constriction in three spatial dimensions. We consider a Bose-Einstein condensate at zero temperature in two different geometries: a straight waveguide and a torus. The constriction…
Droplet formation in a system of two or more immiscible fluids is a celebrated topic of research in the fluid mechanics community. In this work, we propose an innovative phenomenon where oil when injected drop-wise into a pool of water…
In this paper, we show that the spatio-temporal evolution of incompressible flows in a long circular pipe can be described by vorticity dynamics. The principal techniques to obtain solutions are similar to those used for flows in the whole…
We show that, in the transitional regime of pulsatile pipe flow, at moderate-to-high amplitudes 0.5 < A < 1, the first long-lived turbulent structures are localized and take the form of the puffs and slugs observed in statistically steady…
An addition of polymers can significantly reduce drag in wall-bounded turbulent flows, such as pipes or channels. This phenomenon is accompanied by a noticeable modification of the mean velocity profile. Starting from the premise that…

Bubble curtains are widely used for sound mitigation during offshore pile driving to protect marine life. However, the lack of well validated hydrodynamic models is a major factor in the inability to predict the sound attenuation of a…
Liquid jet formations on water surfaces serve as a cornerstone in diverse scientific disciplines, underpinning processes in climatology, environmental science, and human health issues. Traditional models predominantly focus on pristine…
Swirl-switching is a low-frequency oscillatory phenomenon which affects the Dean vortices in bent pipes and may cause fatigue in piping systems. Despite thirty years worth of research, the mechanism that causes these oscillations and the…
