Given a closed oriented manifold or more generally a group homology class, we introduce the spherical Plateau problem, which is a variational problem corresponding to a topological invariant called the spherical volume. In principle, its…
This paper examines two-dimensional liquid curtains ejected at an angle to the horizontal and affected by gravity and surface tension. The flow is, to leading order, shearless and viscosity, negligible. The Froude number is large, so that…
We are concerned with inverse problems for supersonic potential flows past infinite axisymmetric Lipschitz cones. The supersonic flows under consideration are governed by the steady isentropic Euler equations for axisymmetric potential…
The growing interest in creating a parametric representation of liquid sloshing inside a container stems from its practical applications in modern engineering systems. The resonant excitation, on the other hand, can cause unstable and…
We consider the Hele-Shaw problem with surface tension in an infinite domain. We prove the existence of a family of self-similar solutions. At $t=0$, these solutions have a corner of angle $\theta$ with $ 0 < |\theta - \pi| \ll 1$, and for…

We study the fingering instability of the interface between two miscible fluids, a colloidal suspension and its own solvent. The temporal evolution of the interface in a Hele-Shaw cell is found to be governed by the competition between the…
Icy satellites host topography at many length scales, from rifts and craters on the small end to equatorial-pole shell thickness differences that are comparable to these bodies' circumference. The rate of topographic evolution depends on…

In the late 1950's, Eshelby's linear solutions for the deformation field inside an ellipsoidal inclusion and, subsequently, the infinite matrix in which it is embedded were published. The solutions' ability to capture the behavior of an…
The rigid-lid approximation is a commonly used simplification in the study of density-stratified fluids in oceanography. Roughly speaking, one assumes that the displacements of the surface are negligible compared with interface…

The flow in a Hele-Shaw cell with a time-increasing gap poses a unique shrinking interface problem. When the upper plate of the cell is lifted perpendicularly at a prescribed speed, the exterior less viscous fluid penetrates the interior…
