Experiments on opto-electrically generated microfluidic vortices
Strong microfluidic vortices are generated when a near-infrared (1,064 nm) laser beam is focused within a microchannel and an alternating current (AC) electric field is simultaneously applied. The electric field is generated from a parallel-plate, indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes separated by 50 lm. We present the first l-PIV analysis of the flow structure of such vortices. The vortices exhibi...
متن کاملThe Hamiltonian structure of a two-dimensional rigid circular cylinder interacting dynamically with N point vortices
This paper studies the dynamical fluid plus rigid-body system consisting of a two-dimensional rigid cylinder of general cross-sectional shape interacting with N point vortices. We derive the equations of motion for this system and show that, in particular, if the vortex strengths sum to zero and the rigid-body has a circular shape, the equations are Hamiltonian with respect to a Poisson bracket...
متن کاملLaboratory Experiments on Wave Turbulence
This review paper is devoted to a presentation of recent progress in wave turbulence. I first present the context and state of the art of this field of research both experimentally and theoretically. I then focus on the case of wave turbulence on the surface of a fluid, and I discuss the main results obtained by our group: caracterization of the gravity and capillary wave turbulence regimes, th...
متن کاملUnsaturated flow through a fracture–matrix network: Dynamic preferential pathways in mesoscale laboratory experiments
[1] We conducted two laboratory experiments at the meter scale in which water was applied to the top of an initially dry, uncemented wall composed of porous bricks. One experiment (Experiment 1) encouraged evaporation and resulting mineral precipitation, while the other (Experiment 2) was designed to minimize these processes. In both cases, processes acting within the fracture network controlle...
متن کاملMeasurements of Wake Vortices Interacting with the Ground
Although wake vortices are known to decay more rapidly near the ground than away from the ground, the details of the ground interaction are not well understood. Propeller anemometer arrays located under the approach path have been used to study vortex transport and provide some information about the vortex interaction with the ground, such as the generation of secondary vortices via boundary-la...
