We investigate experimentally the impact of heterogeneity on the capillary pressure hysteresis in fluid invasion of model porous media. We focus on `symmetric' heterogeneity, where the contact angles the fluid interface makes with the…

The present study provides a detailed description of the forces on an ellipsoidal particle in the vicinity of the rough wall. Three-dimensional numerical simulations are performed using body-fitted mesh to estimate the drag, lift, and…

We present calculations of forces for two dimensional static sandpile models. Using a symbolic calculation software we obtain exact results for several different orientations of the lattice and for different types of supporting surfaces.…

The interaction between near-wall turbulence and wall curvature is described for the incompressible flow in a plane channel with a small concave-convex-concave bump on the bottom wall, with height comparable to the wall-normal location of…

We report experimental results for the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability between two immiscible fluids in parallel flow in a Hele-Shaw cell. We focus our interest on the influence of the gap size between the walls on the instability…

Most studies on granular physics have focused on dry granular media, with no liquids between the grains. However, in geology and many real world applications (e.g., food processing, pharmaceuticals, ceramics, civil engineering,…

In confined systems, such as the inside of a biological cell, the outer boundary or wall can affect the dynamics of internal particles. In many cases of interest both the internal particle and outer wall are approximately spherical.…

Drop impact events on wet granular bed show rich variety by changing the substrate composition. We observe the drop impact onto dry/wet granular substrates with different grain size (50-400 {\mu}m) and water content (0-22 vol %). Although…

We study the effect of a nearby planar wall on the propulsion of a spherical phoretic micro-swimmer driven by reactions on its surface. An asymmetric coverage of catalysts on its surface which absorb reactants and generate products gives…

We report on density waves in granular material, investigated both experimentally and numerically. When granular material falls through a long narrow pipe one observes recurrent clogging. The kinetic energy of the falling particles…

We investigate the effect of wall fluid slip on the orientation of non-Brownian, short, rigid, and high aspect ratio cylindrical fibers suspended in a Newtonian fluid in flow through a symmetric hyperbolic planar channel. The fiber…

The nonlinear dynamic behaviour of microscopic bubbles near a wall is investigated. The Keller-Miksis-Parlitz equation is adopted, but modified to account for the presence of the wall. This base model describes the time evolution of the…

We have studied the splashing dynamics of water drops impacting granular layers. Depending on the drop kinetic energy, various shapes are observed for the resulting craters. Experimental parameters that have been considered are : the size…

We report and analyse the results of extensive discrete element method simulations of three-dimensional gravity driven flows of cohesionless granular media over an erodible bed, the whole being confined between two flat and frictional…

Boundary shape, particularly roughness, strongly controls the amount of wall slip in dense granular flows. In this paper, we aim to quantify and understand which aspects of a dense granular flow are controlled by the boundary condition, and…

Liquid drop impact and penetration into a granular layer are investigated with diverse liquids and granular materials. We use various size of SiC abrasives and glass beads as a target granular material. We also employ ethanol and glycerol…

By numerical simulation of exact equations of motion (in terms of conformal variables) for planar non-stationary potential flows of an ideal fluid with a free surface over a strongly non-uniform bottom profile, the effect of nonlinear…

The kinetic effects, due to the mode resonance with thermal particle drift motions in the reversed field pinch (RFP) plasmas, are numerically investigated for the stability of the resistive wall mode, using a non-perturbative MHD-kinetic…

Liquid-gas-liquid interfaces stabilized by hydrophobic beads behave as ball bearings under shear and exhibit a giant slip. Using a scaling analysis and molecular dynamics simulations we predict that, when the contact angle theta between the…

This article describes the fluid dynamics video: "Effect of bubble deformability on the vertical channel bubbly flow". The effect of bubble deformability on the flow rate of bubbly upflow in a turbulent vertical channel is examined using…
