On air cushioning in axisymmetric impacts (2014)
Journal Article
Moore, M., & Oliver, J. (2014). On air cushioning in axisymmetric impacts. IMA Journal of Applied Mathematics, 79(4), 661-680. https://doi.org/10.1093/imamat/hxu026

This paper extends the work of Moore et al. (2013, Air-cushioning in impact problems. IMA J. Appl. Math., 78, 818–838) by using a displacement potential formulation to analyse the post-impact effect of an air-cushioning layer on the normal impact of...

Capillary and viscous perturbations to Helmholtz flows (2014)
Journal Article
Moore, M., Ockendon, H., Ockendon, J., & Oliver, J. (2014). Capillary and viscous perturbations to Helmholtz flows. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 742, Article R1. https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2014.39

Inspired by recent calculations by Thoraval et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 108, 2012, p. 264506) relating to droplet impact, this paper presents an analysis of the perturbations to the free surface caused by small surface tension and viscosity in ste...
