Laboratory experiments on vortices colliding with multiple islands

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...

Summary of E+e-colliding Beam Experiments*

This paper discusses recent experiments related to e+ehadrons. Subjects discussed include hadron form factors, the total hadronic cross section, multiplicities and some specific channels.

Laboratory 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...

Aiaa 2000-0278 Experiments on the Origin of Tip-vortices

Measurements of the structure and evolution of the tip vortex from a rotor in low-speed forward flight are presented. On the advancing blade spanwise flow on the pressure side of the blade is comparable in magnitude to the inflow. Core circumferential velocity profiles show multiple features during formation. Trajectories and peak core velocities of the tip-vortex during its formation on top of...
