Numerous are the questionings raised by medicine interventionnelle, concerning the hold in charge of the pathologies of the arterial partition (aneurysm, dissection, coarctation, atherosclerosis).for it we made the modeling and the numeric…
The deposition of a viscoplastic fluid onto a substrate can be achieved by simply moving apart two plates initially separated by a fluid filled gap, where the footprint shape depends on the initiation of a fingering instability. Here, we…
Red blood cells flowing through capillaries assume a wide variety of different shapes owing to their high deformability. Predicting the realized shapes is a complex field as they are determined by the intricate interplay between the flow…
The influence of the surface pre-deformation on jerky flow caused by the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) effect was investigated using flat tensile specimens of an Al-Mg alloy. Although jerky flow represents a macroscopic plastic instability,…
The article demonstrates that the internal circulation velocity and patterns in sessile droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces is governed by the surface curvature. Particle Image Velocimetry reveals that increasing convexity deteriorates…
The spontaneous formation of droplets via dewetting of a thin fluid film from a solid substrate allows for materials nanostructuring, under appropriate experimental control. While thermal fluctuations are expected to play a role in this…
Conjugation accelerates bacterial evolution by enabling bacteria to acquire genes horizontally from their neighbors. Plasmid donors must physically encounter and connect with recipients to allow plasmid transfer, and different environments…
The mechanical behaviour and symmetry-breaking shape deformation of red blood cells subjected to shear flows is used to demonstrate that far from being random fluids, both the membrane and cytoplasm of every biological cell undergo…
We study the stationary and transient behaviors of the microemulsion phase subjected to a shear flow. The system is described by a diffusion-convective equation which generalizes the usual Cahn-Hilliard equation. Non-linear terms are…
The flow behavior of granular matter is significantly influenced by the shape of constituent particles. This effect is particularly pronounced for very concave particles, which exhibit unique flow characteristics such as higher porosity and…
A liquid poured from a curved solid surface can separate as a steady jet or sheet, or trickle down along the solid surface. It was shown by Duez et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 084503 (2010)] that surface wettability controls the separation…
We consider pattern formation using reaction-diffusion equation on various non-uniformly curved surfaces. We explore how, in general, curvature and, in particular the domain shape would affect the pattern formation in these geometries. As…
We present a modification of a recently developed volume of fluid method for multiphase problems, so that it can be used in conjunction with a fractional step-method and fast Poisson solver, and validate it with standard benchmark problems.…
The significant rates of post-operative arterial thrombus formation following the sutured anastomosis (surgical connection) of vessels in microvascular reconstruction has kindled the development of engineered solutions such as the UNILINK…
Through high-fidelity numerical simulation, the effect of the arrangement of micropillars on the flow characteristics and momentum transport has been extensively investigated. The surface friction due to the complex flow characteristics and…
This paper worked towards modeling blood platelets. Blood platelets, also known as thrombocytes, play a key role in blood clotting which is a vital human function. Furthermore, the role of these entities in strokes, myocardial infarctions,…
The causal relevance of local flow conditions in wall-bounded turbulence is analysed using ensembles of interventional experiments in which the effect of perturbing the flow within a small cell is monitored at some future time. When this is…
We numerically investigate the influence of flow development on secondary flow patterns and subsequent wall shear stress distributions in a curved artery model, and we compute vascular metrics commonly used to assess variations in blood…
In this study, we perform a numerical analysis of the instability of a ligament in shear flow and investigate the effects of air-liquid shear on the growth rate of the ligament interface, breakup time, and droplet diameter formed by the…
Pressure-imposed rheometry is used to examine the influence of surface roughness on the rheology of immersed and dry frictional spheres in the dense regime. The quasi-static value of the effective friction coefficient is not significantly…
