Figure 1: A variant of classical viscous fingering. The control of interfacial instabilities is similarly applicable in expanding narrow passages. For instance, our results suggest that when a less ...

The induced transient viscous flow due to a suddenly stretched surface is studied. After a similarity transform, the unsteady Navier-Stokes equation is solved by several methods, including ...

If there are no shear stresses present, there is no fluid deformation, and the behavior of a fluid is described by the bulk modulus relating the pressure and the compression strain. In the presence of ...

Tuesday is a recitation session. Registration for this session is not necessary if it conflicts with other classes. No permission is required. ME 373 is the second course in fluid mechanics for ...

This question is often best answered by example. Imagine a styrofoam cup with a hole in the bottom. If I then pour honey into the cup I will find that the cup drains very slowly. That is because honey ...
