🎉 Congratulations to Dr. Jochem Meijer for winning the KIVI Hoogendoorn Fluid Mechanics Award 2024! His thesis "Particles, drops, and bubbles in gradient fields" was recognized as the best PhD thesis of 2023-24. Supervised by @detlef_lohse 👏 #FluidMechanics #PhD

[Vatsal Sanjay @VatsalSanjay]

So inspiring to hear my mentor, @detlef_lohse (@poftwente), share his scientific journey in this @TheLHSeries! His thoughts on curiosity, mentorship, and the "puzzle solving" joy of science resonate deeply. A must-watch! Always so much to learn. https://t.co/Ot0g09zTXY

[Physical Review Fluids @PhysRevFluids]

💧🫧 How do gas bubbles inside an impacting droplet alter the collision? Ortega-Roano & van der Meer from @poftwente simulate different bubble configurations, revealing their effect on short-time forces on the substrate, damping collisions. Read more at https://t.co/NgR3X7bjyw !

You might expect active matter to become more active if you fire it up. Here the opposite happens! - Prashanth Ramesh has frozen his microswimmers by heating and will tell you all about it here: https://t.co/eBCqMLLaKe

[Alban Sauret @AlbanSauret]

Excited to share our new paper in @PNASNews https://t.co/lxBWbeg9Ae! Ice cubes often appear cloudy because, as water freezes, air bubbles get trapped and scatter light. But how does freezing rate affect the shape of the bubbles? @UMDResearch @UCSBengineering @PMMH_lab @poftwente

[Journal of Fluid Mechanics @JFluidMech]

New Volume of Journal of Fluid Mechanics available on Cambridge Core https://t.co/KOnTRyCpSi
New Volume = New Cover
📸 doi:10.1017/jfm.2024.982 Sanjay et al. The role of viscosity on drop impact forces on non-wetting surfaces

[Vatsal Sanjay @VatsalSanjay]

In the spirit of transparent science, the full source code for our simulations is freely available: https://t.co/3pTniISWGD This ensures reproducibility and allows further exploration of drop-impact phenomena.

[Vatsal Sanjay @VatsalSanjay]

This is our first paper with a JFM Notebook—an excellent initiative by @JFluidMech to host interactive code and data. It greatly enhances reproducibility and transparency in fluid dynamics research—a commendable step forward.

📢 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

[Physics of Fluids @ UTwente @poftwente]

Congratulations, Giulia Piumini, for successfully defending her thesis: Fluid structure interaction of turbulent flows with complex-shape bodies. https://t.co/f9nqYVLjqZ.
Congratulations also to the promotion team: @detlef_lohse and Roberto Verzicco. #FluidDynamics #particles

[AIP Publishing @AIP_Publishing]

Our simulations show how atmospheric pressure and temperature differences impact wind farm power generation and wake recovery. We also introduce a novel model to predict wind farm wake development. @rjamstevens @poftwente

[Physics of Fluids @ UTwente @poftwente]

🔊 Just wrapped up an insightful seminar on microscale acoustofluidics with Henrik Bruus from @DTUtweet ! Exploring the shift from traditional glass/silicon devices to innovative polymer-based solutions. Exciting advancements in #Acoustofluidics and #Biotech! @UTwente

[Richard J.A.M. Stevens @rjamstevens]

🚀 Exciting PhD Opportunity! 🌍

We’re looking for a motivated #PhDCandidate to join @Poftwente on simulations of offshore wind farms. 🌬️🌊

I enjoyed attending the seminar by Jules Colas (Ecole Centrale de Lyon) in @poftwente The insights into wind turbine and wind farm noise propagation, particularly the role of atmospheric stability and topography, were fascinating. 🌬️⚡

[Richard J.A.M. Stevens @rjamstevens]

I Enjoyed the talk by Keith Moffatt (@Cambridge_Uni, DAMTP), 2018 Fluid Dynamics Prize winner & George Batchelor’s PhD student, at @PoFTwente. Fascinating insights on:
1️⃣ Batchelor sleeve problem (low to high Re)
2️⃣ Spiral wind-up of vortex sheets.
