In this work, we focus on the processes which accompany a frontal neutralization reaction
occurring between two miscible fluids filling a vertical Hele-Shaw cell. We have found that …

In nature, turbulent flows exist that are neither simply 2D nor 3D but are forced towards one
state or the other by boundary conditions such as varying stratification. Here, we report the …

This paper presents a review of experiments performed in three-dimensional flows that show
behaviour associated with two-dimensional turbulence. Experiments reveal the presence of …

Cyclic, nonhierarchical interactions among biological species represent a general
mechanism by which ecosystems are able to maintain high levels of biodiversity. However …

The emergence of self-organized behaviors such as spatio-temporal oscillations is well-
known for complex reactions involving nonlinear chemical or thermal feedback. Recently, it …

Faraday waves occur on a fluid being subject to vertical shaking. Although it is well known
that form and shape of the wave pattern depend on driving amplitude and frequency, only …

The movement of small but finite spherical particles in a fluid can be described by the Maxey-
Riley equation (MRE) if they are too large to be considered passive tracers. The MRE …

Recent theoretical and experimental investigations have demonstrated the role of certain
invariant manifolds, termed burning invariant manifolds (BIMs), as one-way dynamical …

We investigate growth of the excitable Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction in chaotic, time-
varying flows. In slow flows, reacted regions tend to lie near vortex edges, whereas fast flows …

Couplings between biochemical and mechanical processes have a profound impact on
embryonic development. However, in-vitro studies capable of quantifying these interactions …
