It has been shown that lyotropic lamellar phases under shear flow form structures corresponding to a close packed assembly
of monodisperse multilamellar vesicles (onions). The size, which is fixed by the shear rate, can vary from a few microns to
a tenth of a micron. In this study, we investigate for the first time the transient behaviour of size changes of onions under
shear flow by means of small angle light scattering, direct microscopic observations, and conductivity measurements. We evidence
two regimes: continuous and discontinuous. The nature of which (continuous or discontinuous) depends on the initial and final
shear rate, and can be described by a dynamic phase diagram.

We use an off-lattice microscopic model for solutions of equilibrium polymers (EP) in a lamellar shear flow generated by means
of a self-consistent external field between parallel hard walls. The individual conformations of the chains are found to elongate
in flow direction and shrink perpendicular to it while the average polymer length decreases with increasing shear rate. The
Molecular Weight Distribution of the chain lengths retains largely its exponential form in dense solutions whereas in dilute
solutions it changes from a power-exponential Schwartz distribution to a purely exponential one upon an increase of the shear
rate. With growing shear rate the system becomes increasingly inhomogeneous so that a characteristic variation of the total
monomer density, the diffusion coefficient, and the center-of-mass distribution of polymer chains of different contour length
with the velocity of flow is observed. At higher temperature, as the average chain length decreases significantly, the system is shown to undergo an order-disorder transition
into a state of nematic liquid crystalline order with an easy direction parallel to the hard walls. The influence of shear
flow on this state is briefly examined.

In this experimental work we carefully investigate the rheological behaviour and in particular the shear thickening exhibited
by aqueous micellar solutions of CTAB with NaSal as added counterion. We are particularly interested in the evolution of the
critical shear rate (at which shear thickening occurs) versus
C
D
, the surfactant concentration. We show that , at fixed salt concentration C
S
, increases with C
D
following a power law evolution with a positive exponent of + 5.8. On the other hand we show that if the ratio C
D
/ C
S
is fixed, decreases with C
D
with a negative exponent of -2.0. Nevertheless investigations of the zero shear viscosity indicate that in all situations (implying variation of the surfactant concentration C
D
, or the salt concentration C
S
or the temperature) is a decreasing function of the length of the micelles. All these evolutions are compatible with a gelation mechanism which
could possibly be associated with entanglement effects of large interacting flowing structures.

We examine the background flow variational principle for calculating bounds on the energy dissipation rate in turbulent shear
flow, and suggest to select this principle's test functions such that they comply with the small-scale smoothness of real
turbulent velocity fields. A self-consistent algorithm implementing this requirement then yields an upper bound on the dimensionless
dissipation coefficient which shows a weak power-law decrease at high Reynolds numbers, instead of approaching a nonzero constant,
as it did in previous estimates.

We study the behavior under flow of soft spherical micelles forming a fcc phase at high volume fraction. Due to the size (300 ?) of the elementary objects, the structure can be investigated through
X-rays and neutron scattering, at rest and under flow in a Couette cell. Using scattering in two perpendicular directions,
different mechanisms of flow are identified. At intermediate shear (around 100 s-1) the system exhibits the so called layer sliding mechanism where two dimensional hexagonal compact planes of spheres align
themselves with the Couette cell walls. At lower shear rate, the fcc structure is locally preserved, and the flow is mediated by defects between crystallites. At high shear rate, we observe
the melting of the structure and a liquid-like structure factor. Moreover, we were able to use the existence of the layer
sliding regime to generate a fcc monocrystal by annealing the satcking faults between the decorrelated planes created by the layer sliding.

The dynamics of a single fluid bilayer membrane in an external hydrodynamic flow field is considered. The deterministic equation
of motion for the configuration is derived taking into account both viscous dissipation in the surrounding liquid and local
incompressibility of the membrane. For quasi-spherical vesicles in shear flow, thermal fluctuations can be incorporated in
a Langevin-type equation of motion for the deformation amplitudes. The solution to this equation shows an overdamped oscillatory
approach to a stationary tanktreading shape. Inclination angle and ellipticity of the contour are determined as a function
of excess area and shear rate. Comparisons to numerical results and experiments are discussed.

The recirculation flow induced by the rising motion of a bubble stream in a viscous fluid within an open-top rectangular enclosure
is studied. The three-dimensional volume averaged conservation equations are solved by a control-volume method using a hybrid
finite differencing scheme to describe the liquid phase hydrodynamics. The momentum exhange between the bubbles and the liquid
phase is modeled with a source term equals to the volumetric buoyancy force acting on the gas in the bubble stream. The volumetric
buoyancy force accounts for in line interactions between bubbles through the average gas volume fraction in the gas liquid
column which depends on the size and the rising velocity of bubbles. The fluid flow within an open-top rectangular enclosure
is further investigated by particle image velocimetry for a bubble stream rising in a water-glycerol solution. The measured
fluid velocities in a vertical plane are compared with the predictions of the numerical model over a wide range of fluid viscosity
(43 mPa s-800 mPa s) and gas flow rates. Finally, the recirculation flows resulting from the interaction of two neighbouring
vertical bubble streams are studied.

The simulation of a two-dimensional, broadly polydisperse, living polymers system at high concentration reveals an unusual
conformational behaviour for the longer chains. Unlike in three dimensions, the longer chains are not swollen but are squeezed
by the smaller chains. This observation is discussed in terms of a two dimensional solvent- polymer mixture whose solvent
particules are larger than the polymer monomers.

The stability of wall modes in a flexible tube of radius R surrounded by a viscoelastic material in the region R < r < H R in the high Reynolds number limit is studied using asymptotic techniques. The fluid is a Newtonian fluid, while the wall
material is modeled as an incompressible visco-elastic solid. In the limit of high Reynolds number, the vorticity of the wall
modes is confined to a region of thickness in the fluid near the wall of the tube, where the small parameter , and the Reynolds number is , and are the fluid density and viscosity, and V is the maximum fluid velocity. The regime is considered in the asymptotic analysis, where G is the shear modulus of the wall material. In this limit, the ratio of the normal stress and normal displacement in the wall,
, is only a function of H and scaled wave number . There are multiple solutions for the growth rate which depend on the parameter .In the limit , which is equivalent to using a zero normal stress boundary condition for the fluid, all the roots have negative real parts,
indicating that the wall modes are stable. In the limit , which corresponds to the flow in a rigid tube, the stable roots of previous studies on the flow in a rigid tube are recovered.
In addition, there is one root in the limit which does not reduce to any of the rigid tube solutions determined previously. The decay rate of this solution decreases
proportional to in the limit , and the frequency increases proportional to .

We have investigated the simple shear flow behavior of wormlike micelles using small-angle neutron scattering and mechanical
measurements. Ternary surfactant solutions made of cetylpyridinium chloride, hexanol and brine (0.2 M NaCl) and hereafter
abbreviated as CPCl-Hex were studied in the concentrated regime, . In a preliminary report (Berret et al. [#!ref16!#]), the discontinuity of slope observed in the shear stress versus shear rate curve was interpreted in terms of first-order phase transition between an isotropic state and a shear-induced
nematic state ( transition). At the transition rate, , the solution exhibits a macroscopic phase separation into viscous and fluid layers (inhomogeneous shear flow). Above a second
characteristic shear rate, the flow becomes homogeneous again, the sheared solution being nematic only. The neutron patterns
obtained in the two-state inhomogeneous region have been re-examined. Based on a consistent analysis of both orientational
and translational degrees of freedom related to the wormlike micelles, we emphasize new features for the transition. In the present paper, the shear rate variations of the relative proportions of each phase in the two-state region,
as well as the viscosity ratio between isotropic and nematic phases are derived. We demonstrate in addition that slightly
above the transition rate, the shear induced nematic phase is already strongly oriented, with an order parameter P
2
= 0.65. The orientational state is that of a nematic flow-oriented monodomain. Finally, from the locations of the neutron
scattering maxima for each isotropic and nematic contributions, we evaluate the concentrations for each phase and and derived a dynamical phase diagram of CPCl-Hex, in terms of the stress
versus
and . According to the classification by Schmitt et al. [#!ref22!#], the transition observed in CPCl-Hex micellar solutions could result from a positive flow-concentration coupling, in agreement
with the observed monotonically increasing shear stress in the two-phase region.

An analytical model is presented to describe the dispersion of tracers in a power-law fluid flowing through a statistically
homogeneous and isotropic porous medium. The model is an extension of Saffman's approach to the case of non-Newtonian fluids.
It is shown that an effective viscosity depending on the pressure gradient and on the characteristics of the fluid, must be
introduced to satisfy Darcy's law. An analytical expression of the longitudinal dispersivity is given as a function of the Peclet number Pe and of the power-law index n that characterizes the dependence of the viscosity on the shear rate . As the flow velocity increases the dispersivity obeys an asymptotic power law: . This asymptotic regime is achieved at moderate Peclet numbers with strongly non-Newtonian fluids and on the contrary at very large values when n goes to 1 ( for n=0.9). This reflects the cross-over from a scaling behaviour for towards a logarithmic behaviour predicted for Newtonian fluids (n=1).

The continuous emission of gas bubbles from a single ejection orifice immersed in a viscous fluid is considered. We first
present a semi empirical model of spherical bubble growth under constant flow conditions to predict the bubble volume at the
detachment stage. In a second part, we propose a physical model to describe the rise velocity of in-line interacting bubbles
and we derive an expression for the net viscous force acting on the surrounding fluid. Experimental results for air/water-glycerol
systems are presented for a wide range of fluid viscosity and compared with theoretical predictions. An imagery technique was used to determine the bubble size and rise velocity.
The effects of fluid viscosity, gas flow rate, orifice diameter and liquid depth on the bubble stream dynamic were analyzed.
We have further studied the effect of large scale recirculation flow and the influence of a neighbouring bubble stream on
the bubble growth and rising velocity.

The optical and rheological properties of different viscoelastic solutions of surfactant are studied in order to gather experimental
data used to calculate the value of the stress optical coefficient C. Three surfactants of the same family (CTAB) have been chosen; they differ by the length of the hydrocarbon chain; it concerns
the dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C15H34BrN or DoTAB), the myristyltrimethylammonium bromide (C17H38BrN or MyTAB), and the hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C19H42BrN or CTAB). Different parameters like the temperature of the solution and the salinity of the solvent have been made to
vary. Flow birefringence experiments and rheological measurements are performed on these solutions in order to study the dependence
of the extinction angle , of the birefringence intensity and of the shear stress with the shear rate . These data are used to check the stress optical law which turns out to be valid in a wide range of shear rates. The stress
optical coefficient C is then computed: it is found to vary with the salinity of the solvent and the temperature of the solution for a given surfactant.
Then, for all solutions of this work the variations of C are related to the variations of the polarizability anisotropy and the persistence length.

The compression of brushes of terminally anchored chain within the de Gennes n-cluster model is analysed. This model was developed for Poly(ethylene oxide) in water but may apply to other systems. Brushes
described by this model exhibit discontinuous concentration profile associated with the coexistence of an inner dense “phase”
and an outer, dilute, one. The compression induces growth of the dense, weakly compressible region. This, in turn, gives rise
to distinctive force profiles associated with changes of slope. When the dilute region disappears, the compression of two
brushes can give rise to a transient attraction.

We suggest a new, renormalization group (RG) based, nonperturbative method for treating the intermittency problem of fully
developed turbulence which also includes the effects of a finite boundary of the turbulent flow. The key idea is not to try
to construct an elimination procedure based on some assumed statistical distribution, but to make an ansatz for possible RG
transformations and to pose constraints upon those, which guarantee the invariance of the nonlinear term in the Navier-Stokes
equation, the invariance of the energy dissipation, and other basic properties of the velocity field. The role of length scales
is taken to be inverse to that in the theory of critical phenomena; thus possible intermittency corrections are connected
with the outer length scale. Depending on the specific type of flow, we find different sets of admissible transformations
with distinct scaling behaviour: for the often considered infinite, isotropic, and homogeneous system K41 scaling is enforced,
but for the more realistic plane Couette geometry no restrictions on intermittency exponents were obtained so far.

We report studies of the behaviour of a single driven domain wall in the 2-dimensional non-equilibrium zero temperature random-field
Ising model, closely above the depinning threshold. It is found that even for very weak disorder, the domain wall moves through
the system in percolative fashion. At depinning, the fraction of spins that are flipped by the proceeding avalanche vanishes
with the same exponent as the infinite percolation cluster in percolation theory. With decreasing disorder strength, however, the size of the critical
region decreases. Our numerical simulation data appear to reflect a crossover behaviour to an exponent at zero disorder strength. The conclusions of this paper strongly rely on analytical arguments. A scaling theory in terms
of the disorder strength and the magnetic field is presented that gives the values of all critical exponent except for one,
the value of which is estimated from scaling arguments.

A new model of film flow down an inclined plane is derived by a method combining results of the classical long wavelength
expansion to a weighted-residuals technique. It can be expressed as a set of three coupled evolution equations for three slowly
varying fields, the thickness h, the flow-rate q, and a new variable that measures the departure of the wall shear from the shear predicted by a parabolic velocity profile. Results of a preliminary
study are in good agreement with theoretical asymptotic properties close to the instability threshold, laboratory experiments
beyond threshold and numerical simulations of the full Navier-Stokes equations.

A living polymer system is used to study the effect of concentration on a broad, polydisperse two-dimensional polymer system.
It is found that the mean squared end-to-end radius of a chain of L monomers does not decrease by following a simple power law of the concentration but by a function of the form . An origin for such a behaviour is proposed.

We study the segregation of granular mixtures in two-dimensional silos using a recently proposed set of coupled equations
for surface flows of grains. We study the thick flow regime, where the grains are segregated in the rolling phase. We incorporate
this dynamical segregation process, called kinematic sieving, free-surface segregation or percolation, into the theoretical
formalism and calculate the profiles of the rolling species and the concentration of grains in the bulk in the steady state.
Our solution shows the segregation of the mixture with the large grains being found at the bottom of the pile in qualitative
agreement with experiments.
