Viscous fingering as a paradigm of interfacial pattern formation: recent results and new challenges.
We review recent results on dynamical aspects of viscous fingering. The Saffman-Taylor instability is studied beyond linear stability analysis by means of a weakly nonlinear analysis and the exact determination of the subcritical branch. A series of contributions pursuing the idea of a dynamical solvability scenario associated to surface tension in analogy with the traditional selection theory ...
متن کاملMoore's law and the Saffman-Taylor instability
Ten years ago Hou, Lowengrub and Shelley [4] published a state-of-the-art boundary integral simulation of a classical viscous fingering problem, the Saffman–Taylor instability [12]. In terms of complexity and level of detail, those computations [4] are still among the most ramified and accurately computed interfacial instability patterns that have appeared in the literature. Since 1994, the com...
متن کاملInverse Saffman-Taylor Experiments with Particles Lead to Capillarity Driven Fingering Instabilities.
Using air to displace a viscous fluid contained in a Hele-Shaw cell can create a fingering pattern at the interface between the fluids if the capillary number exceeds a critical value. This Saffman-Taylor instability is revisited for the inverse case of a viscous fluid displacing air when partially wettable hydrophilic particles are lying on the walls. Though the inverse case is otherwise stabl...
متن کاملWeakly nonlinear investigation of the Saffman-Taylor problem in a rectangular Hele-Shaw cell
We analyze the Saffman-Taylor viscous fingering problem in rectangular geometry. We investigate the onset of nonlinear effects and the basic symmetries of the mode coupling equations, highlighting the link between interface asymmetry and viscosity contrast. Symmetry breaking occurs through enhanced growth of sub-harmonic perturbations. Our results explain the absence of finger tip-splitting in ...
متن کاملViscous fingering and the shape of an electronic droplet in the quantum Hall regime.
We show that the semiclassical dynamics of an electronic droplet, confined in a plane in a quantizing inhomogeneous magnetic field in the regime where the electrostatic interaction is negligible, is similar to viscous (Saffman-Taylor) fingering on the interface between two fluids with different viscosities confined in a Hele-Shaw cell. Both phenomena are described by the same equations with sca...
