Self-sustained dynamics and forced resonant oscillations in flows: cross-junction jets and sloshing liquids

In engineering, oscillatory instabilities and resonances are often considered undesirable flow features and measures are taken to avoid them. This may include avoiding certain parametric regions or implementing control and mitigation strategies. However, t ...

An amplitude equation modelling the double-crest swirling in orbital-shaken cylindrical containers

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone, Margherita Guido

Container motion along a planar circular trajectory at a constant angular velocity, i.e. orbital shaking, is of interest in several industrial applications, e.g. for fermentation processes or in cultivation of stem cells, where good mixing and efficient ga ...

Super-harmonically resonant swirling waves in longitudinally forced circular cylinders

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone, Alice Evelyne Julienne Marcotte

Resonant sloshing in circular cylinders was studied by Faltinsen et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 804, 2016, pp. 608-645), whose theory was used to describe steady-state resonant waves due to a time-harmonic container's elliptic orbits. In the limit of longitu ...

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 ...

Swirling against the forcing: Evidence of stable counterdirected sloshing waves in orbital-shaken reservoirs

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone, Alice Evelyne Julienne Marcotte

We investigate the response of the free liquid surface in a partially filled circular cylindrical container undergoing a planar elliptic and time-periodic orbit while maintaining fixed its orientation. For small forcing amplitudes and deep liquid layers, w ...

Subharmonic parametric instability in nearly brimful circular cylinders: a weakly nonlinear analysis

François Gallaire, Francesco Viola, Alessandro Bongarzone

In labscale Faraday experiments, meniscus waves respond harmonically to small-amplitude forcing without threshold, hence potentially cloaking the instability onset of parametric waves. Their suppression can be achieved by imposing a contact line pinned at ...

Impinging planar jets: hysteretic behaviour and origin of the self-sustained oscillations

Philippe Renaud, François Gallaire, Arnaud Bertsch, Alessandro Bongarzone

The experimental and numerical investigation presented by Bertsch et al. (Phys. Rev. Fluids, vol. 5, 2020a, p. 054202) describes the self-sustained oscillations induced by the interaction of two impinging jets in microfluidic devices. While the oscillatory ...

Stick-slip-to-stick transition of liquid oscillations in a U-shaped tube

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone

The nonlinear decay of oscillations of a liquid column in a U-shaped tube is investigated within the theoretical framework of the projection method formalized by Bongarzone et al. [Chaos 31, 123124 (2021)]. Starting from the full hydrodynamic system supple ...

Feedback-free microfluidic oscillator with impinging jets

Philippe Renaud, François Gallaire, Arnaud Bertsch, Alessandro Bongarzone, Margaux Catherine Marie Duchamp

The present paper describes a microfluidic oscillator based on facing impinging jets and operating in laminar flow conditions. Using appropriate microchannel configurations, pulsatile liquid flows are generated at the microscale from steady and equal inlet ...

Lagrangian versus Eulerian view on the mean drift and streaming flows in orbital sloshing

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone

Orbital sloshing is a technique to gently mix a container's liquid content and it is commonly used in fermentation and cell cultivation processes. Besides the rich wave dynamics observed at the interface, Bouvard et al. [Phys. Rev. Fluids 2, 084801 (2017)2 ...

Von Karman vortex street past a permeable circular cylinder. Two-dimensional flow and dynamic-mode-decomposition-based secondary stability analysis

François Gallaire, Alessandro Bongarzone

We investigate the wake structure and the three-dimensional stability of the two-dimensional von Karman vortex street developing in the wake of a permeable circular cylinder. The flow through the porous medium, assumed homogenous and isotropic, is describe ...

Relaxation of capillary-gravity waves due to contact line nonlinearity: A projection method

François Gallaire, Francesco Viola, Alessandro Bongarzone

We present a physics-inspired mathematical model based on successive linear eigenmode projections to solve the relaxation of small-amplitude and two-dimensional viscous capillary-gravity waves with a phenomenological nonlinear contact line model. We show t ...
