Frictional fluid instabilities shaped by viscous forces

Abstract Multiphase flows involving granular materials are complex and prone to pattern formation caused by competing mechanical and hydrodynamic interactions. Here we study the interplay between granular bulldozing and the stabilising effect of viscous pressure gradients in the invading fluid. Inje...
