Active and driven hydrodynamic crystals.
Motivated by the experimental ability to produce monodisperse particles in microfluidic devices, we study theoretically the hydrodynamic stability of driven and active crystals. We first recall the theoretical tools allowing to quantify the dynamics of elongated particles in a confined fluid. In this regime hydrodynamic interactions between particles arise from a superposition of potential dipo...
متن کاملHydrodynamic effects in driven soft matter
Recent theoretical works exploring the hydrodynamics of soft material in non-equilibrium situations are reviewed. We discuss the role of hydrodynamic interactions for three different systems: (i) the deformation and orientation of sedimenting semiflexible polymers, (ii) the propulsion and force-rectification with a nano-machine realized by a rotating elastic rod, and (iii) the deformation of a ...
متن کاملHydrodynamic fingering instability of driven wetting films: hindrance by diffusion
Recent experimental and theoretical efforts have revealed the existence of a fingering instability at the moving front of thin liquid films forced to spread under gravitational, rotational or surface shear stresses, as for example by using the Marangoni effect. We describe how the presence of a precursor film in front of the spreading macroscopic film, whether it is by prewetting the substrate ...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Instability of the Heliopause Driven by Plasma -
Results from time-dependent two-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of the global heliosphere show that drag between the plasma ions and the interstellar neutrals, caused by charge-exchange collisions, causes the heliopause to be hydrodynamically unstable. Both ions and neutrals are treated as uids coupled by charge-exchange collisions. The neutral-ion drag proportional to the plasma density i...
متن کاملNon-linearities and fluctuations at the threshold of a hydrodynamic instability in nematic liquid crystals
2014 In nematics, the simple shear flow may become unstable when the director is perpendicular to the shear plane. Here we study the non-linear regime above the threshold of the Homogeneous Instability [1]. We use a perturbative approach derived from exact equations within the framework of the Frank-Ericksen-Leslie continuous theory of nematics : the distortion grows as the square root of the d...
