I'm thrilled to have recently joined the @PhysRevFluids team as an Early Career Board Member! I'll be one of the faces behind the journal's X account 💬📱!
Many thanks to @Jamesguan1990 who served as an Early Career Board Member of @PhysRevFluids this past year. He composed several engaging posts about our journal articles, including the just-posted year in review. And a big welcome to @sofiaangriman who now taking up the reins!
🧊 Sofía Angriman’s @sofiaangriman junior semi-plenary focused on collective effects in ice melting, showing how the vertical arrangement of ice objects drastically impacts melting rates, driven by interactions with surrounding flows.
@sofiaangriman, @MininniPablo, @PabloCobelli, @patriciocdl, Martin Obligado, and Sarah Smith just published a paper using physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) to explore long-lasting anomalies in wind tunnel turbulence from random protocols with active grids!
One of our experimental setups is the Von Kármán swirling flow. It uses two rotating propellers to create axisymmetric turbulence. By introducing particles and capturing them with ultra-fast cameras, we can reveal the intricate dynamics within!
¡Orgullo Exactas! 🙌 Nuestra profesora Silvina Ponce Dawson fue elegida presidenta de la International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP), es la primera científica latinoamericana y la segunda mujer en la historia en liderarla.
Are you at #EFDC1 and are curious about what happens when ice objects melt close together? Then find me today at 3.30 pm in the Multiphase Flows session where I will be presenting some of the things I have been working on in @poftwente 🧊🧊 !

Shapes matter in the dance of ice and water. A team that includes @SGHuisman & @detlef_lohse explores how the shape of ice affects melting rates in water, showing that ellipsoidal ice can melt up to 10% slower than disks due to natural convection! https://t.co/4YwamssGyq
Today we published a new paper, this time in @PhysRevLett! @ZFlorenciaN carried out this study together with @pablocobelli and me at @Fisica_UBA, with @sofiaangriman, and with colleagues from @CNRS: Turbulence unsteadiness drives extreme clustering https://t.co/S0yHmtS9D7
I am thrilled to share our paper published today in @ScienceMagazine! Alex Alexakis, Raffaele Marino, myself from @Fisica_UBA, and @CNRS colleagues, have successfully tackled a longstanding problem in atmospheric sciences and geophysical fluid dynamics: https://t.co/Ab2BhNADzp
Our paper with @pablocobelli at @Fisica_UBA is out in @PhysRevLett ! Under the framework of Schramm-Löwner Evolutions (SLE), we found robust evidence of conformal invariance in an experimental setup for water-wave turbulence, which breaks down when increasing the forcing.
@LyndsayStanley7 Hi, thanks! Indeed the approach to some problems, coming from a physics background, might be different and somewhat more fundamental at times. Still, I find it very enriching to have the chance to interact closely with people with more applied profiles than mine
Meet Dr Sofía Angriman (@sofiaangriman), Postdoctoral Researcher at @poftwente. Sofía has previously investigated particle dynamics in turbulent flows and currently runs direct numerical simulations to understand the physics of melting #WomenInSTEM#WomenInScience#IDWGIS#11F
