Yves Couder and Emmanuel Fort discovered that droplets walking on a vibrating fluid bath exhibit several features previously thought to be exclusive to the microscopic, quantum realm…
02/10/2019 – F. Liu – Overview of Recent and Ongoing Research of Black Carbon at NRC
Black carbon (BC) emitted from combustion systems have drawn increasing attention from researchers to regulating bodies due to its strong impact on human health and climate. However,…
20/09/2019 – P. Bourrianne – Colloids and liquids from suspensions to superhydrophobicity
Colloidal suspensions are ubiquitous in our daily life. Micrometric particles dispersed in a solvent are indeed present in common liquids such as…
06/09/2019 – R. Jeanneret – Hydrodynamics of motile and sinking microorganisms
In this talk I will present the results of two independent projects regarding the physics of phytoplankton. The first project deals with a very large…
