Controlling the Saffman-Taylor instability


   1,838 views

This video shows finite element simulations of the air-fluid interface in a lifting Hele-Shaw cell. These demonstrate the existence of several different self-similar modes of...

Controlling vortex breakdown in swirling pipe flow


   3,735 views

A vortex breakdown occurs as fluid flows from a rotating pipe into a stationary pipe at a constant rate. The decaying swirl creates an adverse pressure gradient on the pipe axis,...

Direct numerical simulations of transonic wings at moderate Reynolds numbers


   1,989 views

Direct numerical simulations around Dassault Aviation's V2C airfoil were carried out at a Reynolds number Re=500,000 and a Mach number M=0.7. The movie shows vorticity contours in...

Droplet breakage


   1,972 views

As a liquid bath is perturbed, at a particular acceleration standing waves, called Faraday waves, will appear on the whole surface of the bath. As acceleration increases beyond...

Dye flow visualisation of vortex shedding in a synthetic jet


   3 views

Dye visualisation of a synthetic jet in cross flow in water, whose non-dimensional stroke length exceeds the circulation limit of the primary vortex. Consequently, excess...

Finding Nessie: the structure and origin of confined Holmboe waves


   3,677 views

This video relates our journey to look for order in the chaos of stratified turbulent flows. We tell the story of how we found three-dimensional coherent structures using...

Instabilities in ferrofluid


   1,923 views

A 50 mm long magnet placed at the bottom of a petri dish with 1 mm layer of ferrofluid. Following the gradient of magnetic field, the fluid forms a hump over the magnet. First,...

Marangoni instability from picolitre sessile droplets


   2,009 views

What if a picolitre ethanol drop hits a thin water film of a few microns? High speed camera caught the moment of drop impact: water film is contracted into a drop and repelled,...

Radial Marangoni instability in an evaporating sessile droplet


   1,992 views

Evaporation of a picolitre droplet of ethanol and water with suspended particles that track Marangoni driven flows. A radial instability in the flow leads to the appearance of a...
