Viscous-fingering-like instability of cell fragments.
We present a novel flow instability that can arise in thin films of cytoskeletal fluids if the friction with the substrate on which the film lies is sufficiently strong. We consider a two-dimensional, membrane-bound fragment containing actin filaments that polymerize at the edge and depolymerize in the fragment. Performing a linear stability analysis of the initial state due to perturbations of...
متن کاملFingering Instability in a Water-Sand Mixture
The temporal evolution of a water-sand interface driven by gravity is experimentally investigated. By means of a Fourier analysis of the evolving interface the growth rates are determined for the different modes appearing in the developing front. To model the observed behavior we apply the idea of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability for two stratified fluids. Carrying out a linear stability analysi...
متن کاملFingering instability in combustion: an extended view.
We detail the experimental situation concerning the fingering instability that occurs when a solid fuel is forced to burn against a horizontal oxidizing wind. The instability appears when the Rayleigh number for convection is below criticality. The focus is on the developed fingering state. We present direct measurements of the depletion of oxygen by the front as well as new results that connec...
متن کاملOn Fingering Instability in Immiscible Displacement
Departing from the classical Buckley-Leverett theory for two-phase immiscible flows in porous media, a reduced evolution equation for the water-oil displacement front is formulated and studied numerically. The reduced model successfully reproduces the basic features of the finger-forming dynamics observed in recent direct numerical simulations. PACS numbers: 47.20.Gv, 47.20.Ky, 47.20.Ma
متن کاملSimple view on fingering instability of debonding soft elastic adhesives.
We study the crack-front fingering instability of an elastic adhesive tape that is peeled off a solid substrate. Our analysis is based on an energy approach using fracture mechanics and scaling laws and provides simple physical explanations for (i) the fact that the wavelength depends only on the thickness of the adhesive film and (ii) the threshold of the instability, and (iii) additionally es...
