We theoretically study the Plateau-Rayleigh instability of a thin viscous film covering a fiber consisting of a rigid cylindrical core coated with a thin compressible elastic layer. We develop a soft-lubrication model, combining the…
The Plateau-Rayleigh instability shows that a cylindrical fluid flow can be destabilized by surface tension. Similarly, capillary forces can make an elastic cylinder unstable when the elastocapillary length is comparable to the cylinder's…
The Plateau-Rayleigh instability of a liquid column underlies a variety of fascinating phenomena that can be observed in everyday life. In contrast to the case of a free liquid cylinder, describing the evolution of a liquid layer on a solid…
A slender-thread model is derived to explore the Rayleigh-Plateau instability of a filament of elasto-viscoplastic fluid. Without elasticity, a finite yield stress suppresses any linear instability for a filament of constant radius.…
Soft solids exhibit instability and develop surface undulations due to surface effects, a phenomenon known as the elastic Plateau-Rayleigh (PR) instability, driven by the interplay of surface and bulk elasticity. Previous studies on the PR…
We investigated the Rayleigh-Plateau instability at the interface between two immiscible liquids of equal viscosity using molecular dynamics simulations. Two types of initial conditions were considered, one with an imposed single-mode…
In 1982, in his classical work, L. Rayleigh considered the instability of a cylinder of viscous liquid under capillary force, the so-called Plateau-Rayleigh instability. In this work, in linear approximation, he obtained a dispersion…
A long elastic cylinder, radius $a$ and shear-modulus $\mu$, becomes unstable given sufficient surface tension $\gamma$. We show this instability can be simply understood by considering the energy, $E(\lambda)$, of such a cylinder subject…
A slender thread of elastic hydrogel is susceptible to a surface instability that is reminiscent of the classical Rayleigh-Plateau instability of liquid jets. The final, highly nonlinear states that are observed in experiments arise from a…
We consider a cylindrical film of fluid adhering to a rigid cylinder of fixed radius. The main result is to give the critical (maximum) length for which such a film of given thickness can be stable. The problem is considered both when the…
We report on the Rayleigh-Plateau instability in films of giant micelles solutions coating a vertical fibre. We observe that the dynamics of thin films coating the fibre could be very different from the Newtonian or standard Non-Newtonian…
The application of pure torsion to a long and thin cylindrical rod is known to provoke a twisting instability, evolving from an initial kink to a knot. In the torsional parallel-plate rheometry of stubby cylinders, the geometrical…
Boundary conditions at a liquid-solid interface are crucial to dynamics of a liquid film coated on a fibre. Here a theoretical framework based on axisymmetric Stokes equations is developed to explore the influence of liquid-solid slip on…
This research explores the modulation of Rayleigh-Plateau instability by adjusting the orientation angle and eccentricity of a wire within a nozzle. We demonstrate that both the angle and eccentricity significantly influence the…
Filamentary structures, or long and narrow streams of material, arise in many areas of astronomy. Here we investigate the stability of such filaments by performing an eigenmode analysis of adiabatic and polytropic fluid cylinders, which are…
We report an experimental study on the dynamics of a thin film of polymer solution coating a vertical fiber. The liquid film has first a constant thickness and then undergoes the Rayleigh-Plateau instability which leads to the formation of…
We demonstrate dynamic stabilisation of axisymmetric Fourier modes susceptible to the classical Rayleigh-Plateau (RP) instability on a liquid cylinder by subjecting it to a radial oscillatory body force. Viscosity is found to play a crucial…
The dynamics of a thin liquid film on the underside of a curved cylindrical substrate is studied. The evolution of the liquid layer is investigated as the film thickness and the radius of curvature of the substrate are varied. A…
We deploy linear stability analysis to find the threshold wavelength ($\lambda$) and surface tension ($\gamma$) of Rayleigh-Plateau type "peristaltic" instabilities in incompressible neo-Hookean solids in a range of cylindrical geometries…
The break-up of a nanowire with an organic ligand shell into discrete droplets is analysed in terms of the Rayleigh-Plateau instability. Explicit account is taken of the effect of the organic ligand shell upon the energetics and kinetics of…
