We establish that solitary stationary waves in three dimensional viscous incompressible fluids are a generic phenomenon and that every such solution is a vanishing wave-speed limit along a one parameter family of traveling waves. The…
A physical model of a three-dimensional flow of a viscous bubbly fluid in an intermediate regime between bubble formation and breakage is presented. The model is based on mechanics and thermodynamics of a single bubble coupled to the…

We study a non-linear convective-diffusive equation, local in space and time, which has its background in the dynamics of the thickness of a wetting film. The presence of a non-linear diffusion predicts the existence of fronts as well as…

Lakes and many other geophysical flows are shallow, density stratified, and contain a free-surface. Conventional studies on stratified shear instabilities make Boussinesq approximation. Free-surface arising due to large density variations…
When an ensemble of particles interact hydrodynamically, they generically display large-scale transient structures such as swirls in sedimenting particles [1], or colloidal strings in sheared suspensions [2]. Understanding these…
