Conditions for the local arrest of a hydraulic fracture by a region of larger toughness

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion

We investigate the conditions for the local arrest of a hydraulic fracture encountering a region of larger toughness. The propagation of a hydraulic fracture strongly depends on the ratio between the energy dissipated in the creation of new fracture surfac ...

A revised gap-averaged Floquet analysis of Faraday waves in Hele-Shaw cells

Baptiste Kellian Jouron, François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone

Existing theoretical analyses of Faraday waves in Hele-Shaw cells rely on the Darcy approximation and assume a parabolic flow profile in the narrow direction. However, Darcy's model is known to be inaccurate when convective or unsteady inertial effects are ...
