Hydrodynamic quantum analogs
In 2005, Yves Couder and Emmanuel Fort discovered that millimetric droplets may self-propel along the surface of a vibrating liquid bath. It has since been shown (...)

Water waves in time-varying media : from frequency conversion to topological transition
In this talk, I will discuss several examples of water waves manipulation by the mean of an external (...)

Phenomenology of Eckart acoustic streaming
Acoustic streaming originates from the propagation and attenuation of an acoustic wave. It is used to act at a distance on fluids at various scales. (...)

Modelling geophysical mass flows : current challenges and insights from well-controlled experiments
Numerical modelling of geophysical mass flows such as debris flows, rock avalanches, or snow (...)

Homogeneous turbophoresis of heavy particles in turbulent flow
Dispersed particles suspended in turbulent flows are commonly encountered in natural and industrial settings, taking the form of (...)

Fluid dynamics of the human nose : where surgery meets flow control
The airflow in the nose is a challenging fluid dynamical problem, with major importance in terms of incidence of pathologies (...)

Experimental observation of gapped internal gravity waves in a periodic stratification
Stratified fluids such as the ocean or the atmosphere can carry internal gravity waves that can transport (...)

Better airtanker firefighting : a challenge for fluid dynamics
Airtanker firefighting is a fascinating tool operated to fight wildland fires. Airtankers are based on aircraft or helicopters and (...)

Microstreaming induced by acoustic bubbles for sonoporation
When a bubble is driven by an acoustic wave, the bubble may begin to oscillate stably under certain conditions. When an excitation (...)

Filtration and fundamental fluid mechanics inspired by the manta ray
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems account for about 20% of energy consumption in the US of which at (...)
