In confined rotating convection, a strong zonal flow can develop close to the side wall with a modal structure that precesses anti-cyclonically (counter to the applied rotation) along the side wall. It is surmised that this is a robust…
This work focuses on the dissolution of a train of unconfined bubbles in cylindrical microchannels. We investigate how the mass transfer is affected by the channel and bubble sizes, distance between bubbles, diffusivity, superficial…
In first-order cosmological phase transitions, the asymptotic velocity of expanding bubbles is of crucial relevance for predicting observables like the spectrum of stochastic gravitational waves, or for establishing the viability of…
We use inelastic hard sphere molecular dynamics simulations and laboratory experiments to study patterns in vertically oscillated granular layers. The simulations and experiments reveal that {\em phase bubbles} spontaneously nucleate in the…
The collapse of a vapor bubble near a flat solid boundary results in the formation of a jet that is directed towards the boundary. In more complex geometries such as corners, predictions of the collapse cannot be made in a straightforward…
The stability of two bubbles rising initially in-line through a viscous liquid is revisited using a global linear stability analysis formulated within an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian framework, complemented by fully resolved Embedded…
Bubbles and droplets are ubiquitous in many areas of engineering, including microfluidics where they can serve as microreactors for screening of chemical reactions. They are often formed out of a constriction (a microfluidic channel or a…
Gas bubble growth as a result of diffusion flux of dissolved gas molecules from the surrounding supersaturated solution to the bubble surface is studied. The condition of the flux steadiness is revealed. A limitation from below on the…
The pursuit of targeted therapies capable of overcoming biological barriers, including the tenacious blood-brain barrier, has spurred the investigation into stimuli-responsive microagents. This approach could improve therapeutic efficacy,…
Results of the measurements of sound speed and attenuation in a bubbly medium are reported. Monodisperse bubble solutions are sonicated with broadband ultrasound pulses with pressure amplitudes ranging between 12.5-100 kPa. Fundamental…
Series of experiments on turbulent bubbly channel flows observed bubble clusters near the wall which can change large-scale flow structures. To gain insights into clustering mechanisms, we study the interaction of a pair of spherical…
The formation, growth and detachment of gas bubbles on electrodes are omnipresent in electrolysis and other gas-producing chemical processes. To better understand their role in the mass transfer efficiency, we perform experiments involving…
We have studied the evolution of an excited electron bubble in superfluid 4He for several tens of picoseconds combining the dynamics of the liquid with an adiabatic evolution for the electron. The path followed by the excited bubble in its…
We constrain the parameter space of the Bumblebee model in a cosmological background and then investigate the properties of gravitational waves within the constrained parameter space. Our analysis reveals seven perturbative degrees of…
At the point of pinch-off of an underwater air bubble, the speed of water rushing in diverges. Previous studies that assumed radial flow throughout showed that the local axial shape is two smoothly connected, slender cones that transition…
Air lubrication regimes were studied using simultaneous drag force measurements and multi-plane imaging to characterize the regimes and identify the governing mechanisms of drag reduction. A bubbly, transitional, and air layer regime are…
Designing smart devices with tunable shapes has important applications in industrial manufacture. In this paper, we investigate the nonlinear deformation and the morphological transitions between buckling, necking, and snap-through…
The duality between deformations of elastic bodies and non-inertial flows in viscous liquids has been a guiding principle in decades of research. However, this duality is broken when a spheroidal or other doubly-curved liquid film is…
The current work experimentally studies the complex interaction between underwater explosion (UNDEX) bubbles and a free surface. We aim to reveal the dependence of the associated physics on the key factor, namely, the dimensionless…
Motivated by the dynamics of microbubbles near catalytic surfaces in bubble-powered microrockets, we consider theoretically the growth of a free spherical bubble near a flat no-slip surface in a Stokes flow. The flow at the bubble surface…
