We are pleased to announce that Dr. Tomas Fullana and simeon djambov will be presenting posters at the 27e Rencontre du Non-Linéaire in Paris next week. nonlineaire.univ-lille1.fr/SNL/programme/

Check out our Physical Review Fluids paper, where we present a physics-inspired mathematical model based on linear eigenmode projections to solve the nonlinear relaxation dynamics of liquid oscillations with hysteretic contact line motions.

We are thrilled to announce that @BoujoEdouard will give a keynote lecture on the stability and dynamics of the laminar wakes of 3D prisms at the upcoming ERCOFTAC SIG47 workshop on “3D Wakes” (Imperial College London London, April 10–12)! ercoftac.org/events/3d-wake…

Numerical study on buoyancy-driven annular disks reveals how varying central hole diameter impacts stability and trajectories in free-fall. From vortex rings to recirculating regions, explore the fascinating dynamics with Corsi & co-authors! go.aps.org/3UnPtkO #fluiddynamics

In this ⁦Physical Review Fluids⁩ paper, we study a randomly forced flow past the onset of a pitchfork bifurcation. After reducing the dynamics to its normal form, tools from statistical mechanics are applied to determine transition statistics. doi.org/10.1103/PhysRe…

Lab of Fluid Mechanics & Instabilities LFMI @ EPFL congratulates its new Doctor ès Sciences Dr. Yves-Marie Ducimetière, who successfully defended his work entitled “Non-normal forms” EPFL EPFL School of Engineering

We are excited to announce that Prof. François Gallaire will give a talk at the upcoming meeting in memory of Yves Couder (Paris, June 4-7). Dr. Tomas Fullana will be presenting a poster. yves-couder.u-paris-sciences.fr

We are pleased to announce that simeon djambov will present some preliminary experimental findings on the emergence of dissolution patterns in mist at the upcoming MePhy Day of Environmental Mechanics (Paris, June 12). mephysociety.wordpress.com/mephy-day-Envi…

In this Physical Review Fluids paper we study the linear stability of a viscous liquid layer draining around a horizontal cylinder. When surface tension dominates, pearls form around the cylinder, whereas when gravity dominates, hanging droplets form. doi.org/10.1103/PhysRe…

We are pleased to announce that Prof. François Gallaire is present at the ICTAM2024 in Daegu, South Korea.

We are pleased to announce that Kevin Wittkowski will present "Adjoint-aided homogenization for flows through non-periodic membranes" at the 77th Meeting of the American Physical Society-Division of Fluid Dynamics in Salt Lake City, Utah. meetings.aps.org/Meeting/DFD24/…

We are pleased to announce that "Quasi-linear homogenization for large-inertia laminar transport across permeable membranes" by Kevin Wittkowski, Alberto Ponte, Pier Giuseppe Ledda and Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna has been published in Journal of Fluid Mechanics ! doi.org/10.1017/jfm.20…

A leaf flutters as it falls. But put holes in it, and the fluttering can stop, as shown in the recent paper by Sánchez-Rodríguez and Gallaire (go.aps.org/4gBBAqK). Don't miss their Journal Club presentation on Feb 20 at 11am ET. Register here: go.aps.org/4hwEwX6

Scientists propose a new approach for deriving amplitude equations for strongly non-normal — or “nonmodal” — fluid flow responses during harmonic and stochastic forcing, as well as after initial perturbations. Read the paper: go.aps.org/4khwD8s
