Time-dependent injection strategies are commonly employed to control the number of viscous fingers emerging at the interface separating two fluids during radial displacement in Hele-Shaw flows. Here we demonstrate theoretically that such a…
We study the propagation of finite bubbles in a Hele-Shaw channel, where a centred occlusion (termed a rail) is introduced to provide a small axially-uniform depth constriction. For bubbles wide enough to span the channel, the system's…
We have studied self-sustained, deformable, rotating liquid He cylinders of infinite length. In the normal fluid $^3$He case, we have employed a classical model where only surface tension and centrifugal forces are taken into account, as…
The present paper reports on the numerical investigation of lifted turbulent jet flames with H2/N2 fuel issuing into a vitiated coflow of lean combustion products of H2/air using conditional moment closure method (CMC). A 2D axisymmetric…
Rayleigh-B{\'e}nard convection experiments were done with two adjacent cubic cells with a partial wall in between to force the generation of two interacting convection rolls. Observed stable states include both counter-rotating and…
We investigate self-excited axisymmetric oscillations of a lean premixed methane--air V-flame in a laminar annular jet. The flame is anchored near the rim of the centrebody, forming an inverted cone, while the strongest vorticity is…
The dynamics of quantized vortices in rotating $^3$He-B is investigated in the low density (single-vortex) regime as a function of temperature. An abrupt transition is observed at $0.5 T_{\rm c}$. Above this temperature the number of vortex…
We present a study of the spatial and spectral evolution of the loop-top (LT) sources in a sample of 6 flares near the solar limb observed by {\it RHESSI}. A distinct coronal source, which we identify as the LT source, was seen in each of…
