Bioconvection is the prototypical active matter system for hydrodynamic instabilities and pattern formation in suspensions of biased swimming microorganisms, particularly at the dilute end of the concentration spectrum where cell-cell…
In the classical survey (Chapter 16.2, {\it Mathematics in industrial problem}, Vol. 24, Springer-Verlag, New York, 1989), A. Friedman proposed an open problem on the collision of two incompressible jets emerging from two axially symmetric…
The propagation of high-energy electrons in crystals is in general a complicated multiple scattering problem. However, along high-symmetry zone axes the problem can be mapped to the time evolution of a two-dimensional (2D) molecular system.…
The thesis presents investigations on the angular and mass distribution of fission fragments on heavy ion induced fission reactions. The present investigations address current issues in heavy ion induced fission reactions like finding the…
A unified ballooning theory, constructed on the basis of two special theories [Y. Z. Zhang, S. M. Mahajan, X. D. Zhang, Phys. Fluids B4, 2729 (1992); Y. Z. Zhang, T. Xie, Nucl. Fusion & Plasma Phys. 33, 193 (2013)], shows that a weak…
We study the deformation and dewetting of liquid films under impinging gas jets using experimental, analytical and numerical techniques. We first derive a reduced-order model (a thin-film equation) based on the long-wave assumption and on…
The breakup pathway of the Rayleigh fission process observed experimentally using high-speed imaging of a charged drop levitated in an AC quadrupole trap is shown to undergo asymmetric breakup by ejecting a jet in the upward direction…
We investigate motion of a gas-liquid interface in a test tube induced by a large acceleration via impulsive force. We conduct simple experiments in which the tube partially filled with a liquid falls under gravity and impacts a rigid…
In this paper we study wave propagation and scattering near a rotating black hole. In particular, we assume a coherent emission source near the black hole and investigate the wavefront distortion as seen by a distant observer. Near the…
In Nature, liquids often circulate in channels textured with leaflets, cilia or porous walls that deform with the flow. These soft structures are optimized to passively control flows and inspire the design of novel microfluidic and soft…
A droplet ejection mechanism in planar two-phase mixing layers is examined. Any disturbance on the gas-liquid interface grows into a Kelvin-Helmholtz wave, and the wave crest forms a thin liquid film that flaps as the wave grows downstream.…
We demonstrate that tunable attractive (bonding) and repulsive (anti-bonding) forces can arise in highly asymmetric structures coupled to external radiation, a consequence of the bonding/anti-bonding level repulsion of guided-wave…
We introduce wavelets, curvelets and multiresolution analysis techniques to assess the symmetry of X ray driven imploding shells in ICF targets. After denoising X ray backlighting produced images, we determine the Shell Thickness Averaged…
The results of recent experiments [1] on observing soliton lattices and their dislocations in vertical cylindrical channels filled with immiscible fluids with strongly different viscosities and but slightly different densities are…
We use the impact of drops on a small solid target as a tool to investigate the behavior of viscoelastic fluids under extreme deformation rates. We study two classes of transient networks: semidilute solutions of supramolecular polymers and…
We revisit the scattering of surface plasmons by shallow surface defects for both protrusions and indentations of various lengths, which are deemed infinite in one-dimension parallel to the surface. Subwavelength protrusions and…
The flow of emulsions in confined microfluidic channels is affected by surface roughness. Directional roughness effects have recently been reported in channels with asymmetric boundary conditions featuring a flat wall, and a wall textured…
Pressurised cylindrical channels made of soft materials are ubiquitous in biological systems, soft robotics, and metamaterial designs. In this paper, we study large deformation of a long, thick-walled, and compressible hyperelastic…
Spherical or cylindrical convergent shock waves in imploding materials are one of the most effective ways to produce extremely high pressures, densities and temperatures, hardly attainable in plane shock waves generated by chemical high…
The pressure-driven inertial collapse of a cylindrical void in an inviscid liquid is an integrable, Hamiltonian system that forms a finite-time singularity as the radius of the void collapses to zero. Here it is shown that when the natural…
