Fluid transport networks are important in many natural settings and engineering applications, from animal cardiovascular and respiratory systems to plant vasculature to plumbing networks and chemical plants. Understanding how network…
We compute the response matrix for a tracer particle in a compressible fluid with odd viscosity living on a two-dimensional surface. Unlike the incompressible case, we find that an odd compressible fluid can produce an odd lift force on a…
We discuss how the wettability and roughness of a solid impacts its hydrodynamic properties. We see in particular that hydrophobic slippage can be dramatically affected by the presence of roughness. Owing to the development of refined…
Reciprocal movement cannot be used for locomotion at low-Reynolds number in an infinite fluid or near a rigid surface. Here we show that this limitation is relaxed for a body performing reciprocal motions near a deformable interface. Using…
Turbulence -- ubiquitous in nature and engineering alike [1-5] -- is traditionally viewed as an intrinsically inertial phenomenon, emerging only when the Reynolds number (Re), which quantifies the ratio of inertial to dissipative forces…
Regular perturbation solutions are obtained for the Stokes flow field, the first order effects of inertia on the flow field, and the primary and secondary pressure fields in the circular lid driven cavity. The physical mechanism that causes…
A flowing pair of particles in inertial microfluidics gives important insights into understanding and controlling the collective dynamics of particles like cells or droplets in microfluidic devices. They are applied in medical cell analysis…
Knowledge of turbulent flows over non-flat surfaces is of major practical interest in diverse applications. Significant work continues to be reported in the roughness regime at high Reynolds numbers where the cumulative effect of surface…
Hydrodynamic instabilities in miscible fluids are ubiquitous, from natural phenomena up to geological scales, to industrial and technological applications, where they represent the only way to control and promote mixing at low Reynolds…
We investigate the influence of boundary slip velocity in Newtonian fluids at finite Reynolds numbers. Numerical simulations with Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) and Finite Differences method (FDM) are performed to quantify the effect of…
Odd viscosity is a transport coefficient that can occur when fluids experience breaking of parity and time-reversal symmetry. Previous knowledge indicates that cylinders in incompressible odd viscous fluids, under no-slip boundary…
Many engineering and environmental surfaces exhibit spatial heterogeneity in the spanwise direction and encompass multiple surface length scales. When the dominant spanwise length scale is on the order of the largest flow scales (e.g., the…
This study investigates the lift force acting on a finite-size, neutrally buoyant spherical particle suspended in a liquid while flowing through a shallow channel at low Reynolds numbers. Using an immersed boundary method, we calculate the…
Large Eddy Simulations of a flow at a moderate Reynolds number over and around a three-dimensional hill have been performed. The main aim of the simulations was to study the effects of various inflow conditions (boundary layer thickness and…
Microorganisms are rarely found in Nature swimming freely in an unbounded fluid. Instead, they typically encounter other organisms, hard walls, or deformable boundaries such as free interfaces or membranes. Hydrodynamic interactions between…
The aim of this Letter is to characterize the flow regimes of suspensions of finite-size rigid particles in a viscous fluid at finite inertia. We explore the system behavior as function of the particle volume fraction and the Reynolds…
Conditions are investigated under which a body lying at rest or rocking on a solid horizontal surface can be removed from the surface by hydrodynamic forces or instead continues rocking. The investigation is motivated by recent observations…
Boats float supported only by buoyancy at rest and at very low speeds. As the speed increases, a hull capable of planing makes a sharp transition to a lifting surface while plowing up the bow wave. As the speed increases further the boat…
In this short review, we present the main known features of MHD Turbulence at Low Magnetic Reynolds number, for which the flow isn't intense nor electrically conductive enough to disturb an externally applied magnetic field. The emphasis is…
Many fundamental problems in fluid dynamics are related to the effects of solid boundaries. In general, they install sharp gradients and contribute to the developement of small-scale structures, which are computationally expensive to…
