"His words are more relevant than ever" @LFLmagazine talking about Frank Zappa‪ @frankzappa.bsky.social, I couldn't agree more. I often think about him when I see how things are turning out lately... 🫣

Our Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics is now accessible for free! find out how to make a jellyfish smoothy 🪼, or how to cross a river without a bridge 🪵... thanks @annualreviews.bsky.social for make this volume open!

Cool to see that the most recent entry of #Veritasium is on the strandbeesten of Theo Jansen! always inspiring to hear his story and his work. Here a pic of our own #strandbeest at @poftwente.bsky.social that we keep as a pet 🌊🦖

I have to confess to @apsphysics.bsky.social and specially to the #PhysicalReviewFluids crew that after the #APSDFD2024 I had a very bad bathing experience with their ducks... none of the PRF ducks can swim! only the PRX Life does! WTF! ... Get your ducks together guys...

So glad to hear that my favourite co-org Liesbeth Janssen has won the Athena Award in NL this year! Restless scientist and wonderful person… congrats to her dog
*Bree* as well! 😍 (pic by Vincent van den Hoogen)

Thanks #APSDFD for 3 days of drops, bubbles, impacts, slips, slides, squeezes, shakes, bounces and ducks! 🦆
(note the #PRFluids chief editor in the first seconds 👋)

Really tiny duckies this year at the #APSDFD, but cute nevertheless 😏

And here you can see half of my 1-min flash presentation, see the other half tomorrow at the #APS-DFD interact session C6: #Drops & #Bubbles ... as you can see, alcohol messes everything up, but it also makes it more interesting 🤔

It has been a pleasure to work this year with the great Mathieu Souzy on this Annual Review on Clogging of noncohesive suspensions!, you can already check out an advanced preprint here (research.utwente.nl/en/publicati.... below you can find a teaser ;)
