Séminaire PMMH - Suzie Protière (Institut d’Alembert, UPMC)

Vendredi 16 décembre 2016 de 11h00 à 12h00 - A1 (Urbain)

The instabilities of a granular raft

Small objects trapped at an interface are very common in Nature (waterstriders, ant rafts, bubbles or pollen, membranes…). They also find an application in industrial processes since they can act as stabilizing agents for emulsions or foams. Their study is therefore of practical as well as fundamental importance. Here we propose to study a monolayer of dense particles at an oil/water interface that we call a granular raft. In such system, the stability of the raft is governed by the interplay between gravitational and surface tension forces. Indeed when the number of particles in the raft is large enough the raft may become unstable and sink. Moreover wrinkles and folds can be observed when they are compressed under their own weight. I will first present the stability of such objects and then study their controlled compression to describe the buckling instability they undergo.

    REPROGRAMMABLE HARDWARE FOR DATA PROCESSING AT THE EDGE : A NEW COMPUTING PARADIGM BASED ON NEUROMORPHIC SYSTEMS
    The brain's ability to perform efficient and fault-tolerant data processing is strongly related with its peculiar interconnected adaptive architecture, based on redundant neural circuits interacting at different scales. By emulating the brain's processing and learning mechanisms, computing technologies strive to (…)

Instructions générales pour les conférenciers

Le public du séminaire est très hétérogène (rien qu’au PMMH nous travaillons sur des thématiques très diverses, mécanique des fluides, des milieux granulaires, des solides, physique statistique, physique du mouillage, micro-fluidique, biophysique,...) l’objectif est donc de ne pas faire un séminaire trop spécialiste : au moins la première moitié du séminaire à un niveau accessible pour celui qui ne connaît rien sur le sujet.

Le séminaire a lieu à 11h. rendez-vous 15 minutes avant pour installer et tester la projection.

Le séminaire dure environ 45 minutes pour laisser un peu de temps pour discuter à la fin.
