Scope and Contents

Contents

We consider the motion of a finger of low-viscosity fluid as it propagates into a branching network of fluid-filled microchannels – a scenario that arises in many appli- cations, such as microfluidics, biofluid mechanics (e.g. pulmonary airway reopening) and the flow in porous media. We perform experiments to investigate the behaviour of the finger...
