This article considers additional phenomena that complement the earlier topics addressed
by Ibrahim [(Liquid Sloshing Dynamics: Theory and Applications. Cambridge University …

Surface waves control bacterial attachment and formation of biofilms in thin layers

SH Hong, JB Gorce, H Punzmann, N Francois… - Science …, 2020 - science.org
Formation of bacterial biofilms on solid surfaces within a fluid starts when bacteria attach to
the substrate. Understanding environmental factors affecting the attachment and the early …

Coexistence of inverse and direct energy cascades in faraday waves

R Colombi, N Rohde, M Schlüter, A von Kameke - Fluids, 2022 - mdpi.com
In nature, turbulent flows exist that are neither simply 2D nor 3D but are forced towards one
state or the other by boundary conditions such as varying stratification. Here, we report the …

Two-dimensional turbulence in three-dimensional flows

H Xia, N Francois - Physics of Fluids, 2017 - pubs.aip.org
This paper presents a review of experiments performed in three-dimensional flows that show
behaviour associated with two-dimensional turbulence. Experiments reveal the presence of …

Fluctuation-induced interaction in turbulent flows

M Davoodianidalik, H Punzmann, H Kellay, H Xia… - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
Fluctuation-induced forces are observed in numerous physical systems spanning from
quantum to macroscopic scale. However, there is as yet no experimental report of their …

Tunable diffusion in wave-driven two-dimensional turbulence

H Xia, N Francois, H Punzmann… - Journal of Fluid …, 2019 - cambridge.org
We report an abrupt change in the diffusive transport of inertial objects in wave-driven
turbulence as a function of the object size. In these non-equilibrium two-dimensional flows …

Rectification of chaotic fluid motion in two-dimensional turbulence

N Francois, H Xia, H Punzmann, M Shats - Physical Review Fluids, 2018 - APS
Turbulence is a mechanism leading to energy dissipation, however it also accumulates
energy by spreading it over a range of scales. This valuable energy reservoir is known as …

Passive propulsion in turbulent flows

J Yang, M Davoodianidalik, H Xia, H Punzmann… - Physical Review …, 2019 - APS
The ability of a device to exploit the energy of a flow to generate thrust is the main feature of
passive propulsion. In a turbulent flow, such energy conversion is challenging due to the …

[HTML][HTML] Diffusion of ellipsoids in laboratory two-dimensional turbulent flow

J Yang, N Francois, H Punzmann, M Shats, H Xia - Physics of Fluids, 2019 - pubs.aip.org
We report on the transport properties and orientational dynamics of ellipsoidal objects
advected by laboratory two-dimensional turbulence. It is found that ellipsoids of different …
