On Friday 12 May, Jeroen Lamb visited the department to interact and give a talk as part of the applied stochastics initiative. The title of his talk was “From deterministic to random dynamics: challenges and opportunities” and he discussed the importance of adding noise to otherwise deterministic systems, with many examples. He also pointed out […]

The paper “The stability of jets and wakes confined by compliant walls” co-authored by Ryan Poole and Matt Turner has been accepted for publication in Physical Review Fluids. The paper examines the absolute and convective stability properties for jet/wake flows confined between compliant walls. They model the compliant walls as spring-backed elastic plates (see figure […]
