Unstable nonlocal interface dynamics.
Nonlocal effects occur in many nonequilibrium interfaces, due to diverse physical mechanisms like diffusive, ballistic, or anomalous transport, with examples from flame fronts to thin films. While dimensional analysis describes stable nonlocal interfaces, we show the morphologically unstable condition to be nontrivial. This is the case for a family of stochastic equations of experimental releva...
متن کاملNonlocal interface dynamics and pattern formation in gravity-driven unsaturated flow through porous media.
Existing continuum models of multiphase flow in porous media are unable to explain why preferential flow (fingering) occurs during infiltration into homogeneous, dry soil. Following a phase-field methodology, we propose a continuum model that accounts for an apparent surface tension at the wetting front and does not introduce new independent parameters. The model reproduces the observed feature...
متن کاملStabilization Strategies for Unstable Dynamics
BACKGROUND When humans are faced with an unstable task, two different stabilization mechanisms are possible: a high-stiffness strategy, based on the inherent elastic properties of muscles/tools/manipulated objects, or a low-stiffness strategy, based on an explicit positional feedback mechanism. Specific constraints related to the dynamics of the task and/or the neuromuscular system often force ...
متن کاملDynamics near Unstable, Interfacial Fluids
We study three examples of unstable interfacial fluid motions: vortex sheets with surface tension, Hele-Shaw flows with surface tension, and vortex patches. In all three cases, the nonlinear dynamics of a large class of smooth perturbations is proven to be characterized by the corresponding fastest linear growing mode(s) up to the time scale of log 1 δ , where δ is the magnitude of the initial ...
