Interested in living/active matter? I will be giving a @RoySocChem "desktop seminar" webinar on August 5, describing our recent work studying bacterial growth in complex fluids, along with my friend & intellectual hero Kate Stebe (U. Penn)!

Amazing to have @detlef_lohse with us at @ImperialChemEng 🙌

Detlef will be talking to us about melting and tipping

Super work Jesse!

[Prof Jesse Capecelatro @jesse_caps]

Scalar mixing is a beautiful thing. We're starting to look into how compressible turbulence caused by particle wakes and shocks mix scalars

In their new Letter, Deblais et al. use experiments, theory, and simulations to study the very first moments of drop coalescence. In drop-drop and drop-bath configurations, the authors show the key role played by surrounding gas and van der Waals forces

[Physical Review Fluids @PhysRevFluids]

📢 PRFluids Editors' suggestion: Stafford & @MatarLab from @ImperialChemEng explore the regimes of thin liquid films on rapidly spinning disks. Through experiments and simulations, they reveal the transition from 2D spirals to complex 3D waves. More @ https://t.co/lc7pAiEQIU

📢 in @JFluidMech (https://t.co/PpyE5anF8E) on how viscosity alters drop-impact forces. With Bin Zhang, Cunjing Lv, & @detlef_lohse. The first and second force peaks emerge from distinct flow mechanisms—one at impact, another at take-off. @poftwente https://t.co/T3Brjqj0az

Very sad to hear of the passing of a giant of fluid mechanics.

Prof. Acrivos leaves behind an unparalleled legacy: an incredible body of work and a family tree of students that will maintain his exacting standards.

May Andy’s spirit rest in peace.
