Quantitative coarse graining of laminar fluid flow penetration in rough boundaries

We 3D printed rheometry tools to investigate the role of boundary roughness on rheometry. Surprisingly, a single penetration depth could be identified to play a role in the interaction between the fluid and the rough surface. A. Majhi, L. Kool, J. van der Gucht, J.A.

Physics & Astronomy Practicum 2 observations

The BSc program “Natuurkunde & Sterrenkunde” (Physics & Astronomy) at VU/UvA has a course called “NSP2” in the Fall. Students in this course, and the teachers, do various observations and sometimes stumble over unexpected things. Old glycerine is one, but funny droplet dynamics in thin film flows are another. Heavy liquids included as well. AndContinue reading “Physics & Astronomy Practicum 2 observations”
