- July 2021:
- Our first student-led publication is here: Influence of interfacial rheology on viscous fingering, J. Li & H. Manikantan, Physical Review Fluids, 6, 074001 (2021).
- Jiayu and Thomas have had their abstracts accepted for the AIChE annual meeting later this year in Boston.
- Abstract submission is open for the Annual Meeting of the APS-DFD at Phoenix. Hari is hosting a focus session on ‘Surfactants as Hidden Variables’, and contributed talks are welcome till the deadline of Aug 2, 2021.
- June 2021:
- Hari is awarded a Hellman Fellowship for 2021-22.
- After over a year of zoom group meetings, we are now all fully vaccinated and were excited to safely meet in person for a group lunch! Also a chance to take our official group photo…
- Congrats to Jiayu and Thomas for passing their Ph.D. qualifying exams!!
- May 2021: We are awarded a collaborative seed grant to study complex fluid mechanics and rheology in infected plant sap. More details and exciting results soon!
- Winter 2021: Samantha Wang joins our team.
- December 2020: The paper “Tunable collective dynamics of active inclusions in viscous membranes” has been published in Physical Review Letters.
- Fall 2020: Haruka Shudo and Rohit Mokkarala are the latest members of our team.
- Summer 2020: Congrats, Daniel Jiang for wrapping up at Davis. Daniel continues as a PhD student at the University of Southern California.
- May 2020: After 3 years in the making and at 115 pages, our invited perspective and review “Surfactant dynamics: hidden variables controlling fluid flows” is now available online. (updated Dec 2020 to open access, so it’s free for the world!)
- Fall 2019: A research group is born. Jiayu Li, Thomas Nguyen, and Vishnu Vig are the first generation of graduate students. Daniel Jiang joins us as the first undergrad in our group.
- Summer 2019: Hello world!
