Simple Hele-Shaw Flow Demo Produces Beautiful Organic Forms
Spotted in the MAKE Flickr pool, this cool vid from Jessica Rosenkrantz featuring a simple Hele-Shaw cell, which, per Wikipedia, demonstrates โStokes Flow between two parallel flat plates separated by an infinitesimally small gap.โ Further, โ[v]arious problems in fluid mechanics can be approximated to Hele-Shaw flows and thus the research of these flows is of importance.โ
