Shape of Stationary and Travelling Cells in the Printer’s Instability

  • Chapter
Instabilities and Nonequilibrium Structures III

Part of the book series: Mathematics and Its Applications ((MAIA,volume 64))

Abstract

We present shapes of deep experimental cells in viscous directional growth. For parity symmetric cells, the experimental shapes are compared with numerically computed shapes of stable Saffman-Taylor finger with surface tension. The cells that break the parity symmetry are compared with new analytical solutions of the Saffman-Taylor problem.
