Séminaire PMMH – Christiana Mavroyiakoumou (Oxford University)
Sail dynamics during tacking maneuvers
Tacking is a sailing maneuver that is necessary for upwind navigation. In this talk, I will introduce a sail membrane and vortex–sheet model, used to systematically characterize how a wide range of sail material parameters and tacking motions affects the sail dynamics during a tacking maneuver. I will focus on whether a given set of parameters will result in a “successful tack,” meaning that the sail will flip around to adopt its mirror-image shape, or if it will remain stuck in a metastable state that is close to its initial shape. I will also talk about slack sails and show that they are more difficult to flip.

Antibubbles : optical interferometry, gas transfers and acoustic signature
An antibubble is a spherical thin film of gas, that encapsulates a droplet, within a liquid medium. The typical size of an antibubble is one centimeter while the thickness of the gas film is of micrometric order. Because of the higher hydrostatic pressure at the bottom, the gas film undergoes a (…) -

Formation and fragmentation of fiber aggregate in turbulent flows
Fiber aggregates are commonly encountered in environmental and industrial flows (paper industry, fiber recycling, etc.). However, the physical mechanisms leading to their formation are still misunderstood. Hence, there is still no clear answer to simple questions such as : how long will it take for an aggregate to (…) -

The audience is composed of people with rather heterogeneous backgrounds including specialists in solids, fluids, granular flows, statistical physics... so the idea is to keep your talk understandable by people not necessarily working in your field... The seminar time slot runs from 11am to noon so the best is to make the talk last around 45 minutes to leave some time for discussion.
