On the origin and evolution of icicle ripples by Chen, Antony Szu-Han, Morris, Stephen W

“…Natural icicles often exhibit ripples about their circumference which are due to a morphological instability. We present an experimental study that explores…”

Localized states in sheared electroconvection by Tsai, Peichun, W. Morris, Stephen, A. Daya, Zahir

“…Electroconvection in a thin, sheared fluid film displays a rich sequence of bifurcations between different flow states as the driving voltage is increased. We…”

Experimental investigation of the scaling of columnar joints by Goehring, Lucas, Morris, Stephen W, Lin, Zhenquan

“…Columnar jointing is a fracture pattern common in igneous rocks in which cracks self-organize into a roughly hexagonal arrangement, leaving behind an ordered…”

Meandering instability of a viscous thread by Morris, Stephen W, Dawes, Jonathan H P, Ribe, Neil M, Lister, John R

“…A viscous thread falling from a nozzle onto a surface exhibits the famous rope-coiling effect, in which the thread buckles to form loops. If the surface is…”
