Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology and scaling of impact craters in granular media.
TL;DR: The ratio of crater diameter to rim-to-floor depth is constant for low-energy impacts, but increases at higher energy, similar to what is observed for lunar craters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Viscous fingering with a single fluid
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study fingering that occurs when hot glycerine displaces cooler, more viscous glycerines in a radial Hele-Shaw cell and find that fingering occurs for a sufficiently large initial viscosity contr...

TL;DR: The growth rate of the most unstable mode is found to agree well with the predictions of lubrication theory and the number of fingers which form around the perimeter of the drop is a function of both rotation speed and drop volume, and is in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical simulations of a viscous-fingering instability in a fluid with a temperature-dependent viscosity
TL;DR: In this paper, numerical simulations of the flow of hot glycerine as it displaces colder, more viscous glycerines in a radial Hele-Shaw cell were performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spreading and fingering in a yield-stress fluid during spin coating
TL;DR: In this paper, the deformation, spreading and fingering of small droplets of a yield-stress fluid subjected to a centrifugal force on a rotating substrate was studied, and it was shown that at low rotation rates and for small enough droplets, the droplets deform elastically but retain their essentially circular contact line.
