Viscous fingering of a miscible high viscosity slice of fluid displaced by a lower viscosity fluid is studied in porous media by direct numerical simulations of Darcy's law coupled to the evolution equation for the concentration of a solute…
We study an imbibition problem for porous media. When a wetted layer is above a dry medium, gravity leads to the propagation of the water downwards into the medium. In experiments, the occurrence of fingers was observed, a phenomenon that…
Double-diffusive instabilities are often invoked to explain enhanced transport in stably-stratified fluids. The most-studied natural manifestation of this process, fingering convection, commonly occurs in the ocean's thermocline and…
Viscous fingering patterns can form at the interface between two immiscible fluids confined in the gap between a pair of flat plates; whenever the fluid with lower viscosity displaces the one of higher viscosity the interface is unstable.…
We investigate one-phase flow in porous medium corresponding to a miscible displacement process in which the viscosity of the injected fluid is smaller than the viscosity in the reservoir fluid, which frequently leads to the formation of a…
We investigate the dynamics of viscous fingering (VF) in miscible slices in homogeneous, isotropic porous media. The fluid flow is governed by incompressible Darcy's law, whereas the solute transport is described using an…
A rest fluid displaced by a less viscous fluid in a porous medium triggers the so-called Saffman-Taylor instability at their contact front and hence forms complicated finger-like patterns. When the two fluids are miscible, the surface…
We analyze experimental data on double diffusive convection in an electrochemical cell in the finger regime. All fingers in the experiments are bounded on at least one end by a solid wall. The properties of these fingers are compared with…
Viscous and gravitational fingering refer to flow instabilities in porous media that are triggered by adverse mobility or density ratios, respectively. These instabilities have been studied extensively in the past for 1) single-phase flow…
The non-modal linear stability of miscible viscous fingering in a two dimensional homogeneous porous medium has been investigated. The linearized perturbed equations for Darcy's law coupled with a convection-diffusion equation is…
Porous media with hierarchical structures are commonly encountered in both natural and synthetic materials, e.g., fractured rock formations, porous electrodes and fibrous materials, which generally consist of two or more distinguishable…
The equations of motion in a macroscopically inhomogeneous porous medium saturated by a fluid are derived. As a first verification of the validity of these equations, a two-layer rigid frame porous system considered as one single porous…
Slow flow of a single fluid through a porous medium is well understood on a macroscopic level through Darcy's law, a linear relation between flow rate and a combination of pressure differences, viscosity, and gravitational forces. Two-phase…
We report here some intriguing properties of fingering double diffusive convection turbulence, i.e. convection flow driven simultaneously by an unstable salinity gradient and a stable temperature gradient. Multiple equilibria can be…
We conduct a theoretical study of a two-phase-fluid-structure interaction problem in which air is driven at constant volume flux into a liquid-filled Hele-Shaw channel whose upper boundary is an elastic sheet. A depth-averaged model in the…
Finger-type convection in double-diffusive instability (DDI) controls mixing and scalar transport in many stratified flows, yet a quantitative, finger-resolved description of the transient growth, transport, and saturation pathways has been…
A thin solid (e.g., paper), burning against an oxidizing wind, develops a fingering instability with two decoupled length scales. The spacing between fingers is determined by the P\'eclet number (ratio between advection and diffusion). The…
The finger-like branching pattern that occurs when a less viscous fluid displaces a more viscous one confined between two parallel plates has been widely studied as a classical example of a mathematically-tractable hydrodynamic instability…
Stably-stratified layers may be present at the top of the electrically-conducting fluid layers of many planets either because the temperature gradient is locally subadiabatic or because a stable composition gradient is maintained by the…
The behaviour of a viscous drop squeezed between two horizontal planes is treated by both theory and experiment. When the squeezing force F is constant and surface tension is neglected, the theory predicts ultimate growth of the radius a~…
