The Saffman-Taylor viscous fingering problem is investigated for the displacement of a non-Newtonian fluid by a Newtonian one in a radial Hele-Shaw cell. We execute a mode-coupling approach to the problem and examine the morphology of the…
The three-layer Saffman-Taylor problem introduces two coupled moving interfaces separating the three fluids. A very recent weakly nonlinear analysis of this problem in a radial Hele-Shaw cell setup has shown that the morphologies of the…
The Saffman-Taylor viscous fingering instability occurs when a less viscous fluid displaces a more viscous one between narrowly spaced parallel plates in a Hele-Shaw cell. Experiments in radial flow geometry form fan-like patterns, in which…
The Saffman-Taylor problem addresses the morphological instability of an interface separating two immiscible, viscous fluids when they move in a narrow gap between two flat parallel plates (Hele-Shaw cell). In this work, we extend 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…
Nonlinear time-dependent differential equations for the Hele-Shaw, Saffman-Taylor problem are derived. The equations are obtained using a separable ansatz expansion for the stream function of the displaced fluid obeying a Darcian flow.…
We study the Hele-Shaw immiscible displacements when all surfaces tensions on the interfaces are zero. The Saffman-Taylor instability occurs when a less viscous fluid is displacing a more viscous one, in a rectangular Hele-Shaw cell. We…
We reconsider the radial Saffman-Taylor instability, when a fluid injected from a point source displaces another fluid with a higher viscosity in a Hele-Shaw cell, where the fluids are confined between two neighboring flat plates. The…
Using air to displace a viscous fluid contained in Hele-Shaw cell can create a fingering pattern at the interface between the fluids, if the capillary number exceeds a critical value. This Saffman-Taylor instability is revisited for the…
We study the Saffman-Taylor instability in a non-Brownian suspension by injection of air. We find that flow structuration in the Hele-Shaw cell can be described by an effective viscosity depending on the volume fraction. When this viscosity…
We analyze the Saffman-Taylor viscous fingering problem in rectangular geometry. We investigate the onset of nonlinear effects and the basic symmetries of the mode coupling equations, highlighting the link between interface asymmetry and…
We develop a stream function approach for the horizontal Hele-Shaw, Saffman-Taylor finger. The model yields a nonlinear time-dependent differential equation. The finger widths derived from the equation are $1>\lambda>\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}$, in…
We introduce a discrete numerical method based on the diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) approach to simulate two-fluid Hele-Shaw flow subject to the Saffman-Taylor interfacial instability, in the case where the displaced fluid is…
A phase-field model for the Hele-Shaw flow of non-Newtonian fluids is developed. It extends a previous model for Newtonian fluids to a wide range of shear-dependent fluids. The model is applied to perform simulations of viscous fingering in…
The Saffman-Taylor instability occurs when a less viscous fluid is displacing a more viscous one in a rectangular Hele-Shaw cell. A surface tension on the interface between the two fluids is improving the stability. The multi-layer Hele -…
In this paper, the interfacial motion between two immiscible viscous fluids in the confined geometry of a Hele-Shaw cell is studied. We consider the influence of a thin wetting film trailing behind the displaced fluid, which dynamically…
Traditional mathematical models of Hele--Shaw flow consider the injection (or withdrawal) of an air bubble into (or from) an infinite body of viscous fluid. The most commonly studied feature of such a model is how the Saffman-Taylor…
We consider the steady-state fingering instability of an elastic membrane separating two fluids of different density under external pressure in a rotating Hele-Shaw cell. Both inextensible and highly extensible membranes are considered, and…
The Saffman-Taylor instability occurs when { a} Stokes fluid is displaced by a less viscous one { in} a Hele-Shaw cell. { This model is useful to study the secondary oil recovery from a pororus medum.} Since 1960, { polymer solutions} were…
Fracture processes are ubiquitous in soft materials, even in complex fluids, subjected to stresses. To investigate these processes in a simple geometry, we use a model self-assembled transient gel and study the instability patterns obtained…
