Type: Master’s project
Description:
The flow of a viscous liquid falling on a solid substrate results in emergence of interesting wavy patterns (see fig1). A fascinating example in daily life is when the falling honey from a spoon coils on bread. In this project we aim to investigate numerically the conditions leading to the coiling of the liquid rope by means of linear stability analysis.
Numerical tools:
COMSOL & MATLAB
