Even the simplest physical processes are more than meets the eye. For example, flow through arrays of soft hairs turns out to be a more intricate process than we thought, shown elegantly by Ushay et al. at Liquids&Elasticity LAB @Princeton. #FluidDynamics #Elastocapillarity

@LiquidsLab Wow

@LiquidsLab @ChBruecker

@LiquidsLab Phenomenal footage showing the capillaries forces of a retreating monomer meniscus through a lamella structure. This is very much how I imagine fine lamella structures, fabricated with one of our #2PP systems @NanoscribeGmbH, are developed post-process.

@LiquidsLab Interesting. ..similar configuration also observed at the interface of canopy and fluid flow in vegetative flows. At high Reynolds number it forms monami effect.
