Enslaved phase-separation fronts that move with a speed just smaller than that of a free front will leave in their wake a morphology of alternating domains that are roughly aligned with the front. However, these alternating domains will typically not be in phase initially. Instead there are defects. Here we present novel phase-separation morphologies that are formed in such systems where the defects are reminiscent of spiral dislocations in crystal growth.

It is well known that the reversibility of Stokes flow makes it difficult for small microorganisms to swim. Inertial effects break this reversibility, allowing new mechanisms of propulsion and feeding. Therefore it is important to estimate the effect
of unsteady and fluid inertia on the dynamics of microorganisms in flow. In this work, we show how to translate known inertial effects for non-motile organisms to motile ones, from passive to active particles. The method relies on a trick used earlier by Legendre and Magnaudet to deduce inertial corrections to the lift force on a bubble from Saffmans results for a solid sphere, using the fact that small inertial effects are determined by the far field of the disturbance flow. The method allows to compute the inertial effect of unsteady fluid accelerations on motile organisms, and the inertial forces they experience in steady shear flow. We explain why the method fails to describe the effect of convective fluid inertia.
This article describes a video uploaded to the APS DFD Annual Meeting 2009 Gallery of Fluid Motion. The video contains both animations and still images from a three-dimensional volumetric velocimetry measurement set acquired in the flow around a Rushton turbine.
Diving induces large pressures during water entry, accompanied by the creation of cavity and water splash ejected from the free water surface. To minimize impact forces, divers streamline their shape at impact. Here, we investigate the impact forces
and splash evolution of diving wedges as a function of the wedge opening angle. A gradual transition from impactful to smooth entry is observed as the wedge angle decreases. After submersion, diving wedges experience significantly smaller drag forces (two-fold smaller) than immersed wedges. Our experimental findings compare favorably with existing force models upon the introduction of empirically-based corrections. We experimentally characterize the shapes of the cavity and splash created by the wedge and find that they are independent of the entry velocity at short times, but that the splash exhibits distinct variations in shape at later times. We propose a one-dimensional model of the splash that takes into account gravity, surface tension and aerodynamics forces. The model shows, in conjunction with experimental data, that the splash shape is dominated by the interplay between a destabilizing Venturi-suction force due to air rushing between the splash and the water surface and a stabilizing force due to surface tension. Taken together, these findings could direct future research aimed at understanding and combining the mechanisms underlying all stages of water entry in application to engineering and bio-related problems, including naval engineering, disease spreading or platform diving.
This entry is aimed at describing cloud physics with an emphasis on fluid dynamics. As is inevitable for a review of an enormously complicated problem, it is highly selective and reflects of the authors focus. The range of scales involved, and the re
levant physics at each scale is described. Particular attention is given to droplet dynamics and growth, and turbulence with and without thermodynamics.
We show that an enslaved phase-separation front moving with diffusive speeds U = C T^(-1/2) can leave alternating domains of increasing size in their wake. We find the size and spacing of these domains is identical to Liesegang patterns. For equal co
mposition of the components we are able to predict the exact form of the pattern analytically. We also show that there is a critical value for C below which only two domains are formed. Our analytical predictions are verified by numerical simulations using a lattice Boltzmann method.
