@SteinbockGroup So cool!!

Our new paper describes a synthetic "cell" that moves over superhydrophobic surfaces. It consists of an H2O2 drop and a chemical garden tube that spins like a propeller or orbits around a large O2 bubble; bursting causes repeating cm motion. #SoftMatter https://t.co/iqSPALUQTQ

Excited to release our latest work, led by PhD student Emily Chen: https://t.co/mAXtI6Dv2N!

Here, we uncover how the unique rheological properties of wormlike micelles (WLM) influences their flow behavior in tortuous serpentine channels. 🪱💧🌪️

Finally published @ScienceMagazine:
Can AI help yield new insights from vast amounts of Earth data?
We use large-scale data and neural nets to find the constitutive laws of glacial ice, which differ from commonly assumed forms in conventional models.

📢 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

[Physical Review X @PhysRevX]

A new modeling approach describes why the interface between spatially-structured multi-species microbial communities transitions between stable smoothness and unstable finger-like protrusions.

[Datta Lab @TheSquishyLab]

Thrilled to see this paper published @PhysRevX:

Check it out at https://t.co/StIFymvHPm!

In it, we describe how growing mixed bacterial colonies can be thought of as multi-component "active fluids" that exhibit interfacial instabilities.

Long standing idea in the group that finally goes out! 😁We have now unraveled the mechanisms that control fluid-fluid reactions in two-phase flow in porous media. Congrats @XueYi_Zhang404 @EawagResearch @ETH_en | Environmental Science & Technology https://t.co/q2eMZKWelk

I am happy to share that our paper on evaluating gigaton scale geological CO2 storage in the Alberta oil sands has been short-listed for the first ever annual paper award for the International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control. https://t.co/sW9Z1jExtz

[Robin Zhao @ZhaoRobin]

@CyprienSoulaine Yes!! Very good news indeed!

[Robin Zhao @ZhaoRobin]

I recently learned that Canada joined Horizon Europe as an associate country under Pillar 2. I am looking forward to submitting joint proposals and working on cool projects together with my European colleagues 😎

We introduce a comprehensive framework for designing a large-scale CCS system, which considers the availability of emission sources, efficiency of pipeline route, storage capacity and injectivity, CO2 migration and trapping, cost, as well as policy and financial incentives.
