fluid mechanics, mathematical modelling, asymptotics, thin-film flow, evaporating droplets, rheology, and some orienteering
At the recommendation of @CathNoakes, I'm putting my toes in the water on bluesky as SKWilson.
Interesting day at @FluidsLeeds on Friday workshopping ideas for @UKFluidsNetwork 2.0 using #LEGO to visualize our proposals and suggestions.
Delighted to (finally) announce #openaccess publication of "Flow manipulation of a nematic liquid crystal in a Hele-Shaw cell with an electrically controlled viscous obstruction" with Joseph Cousins, @nigelmottram et al in JFM Rapids bit.ly/3Bmv1tx

Time for a look back at #woc2024 before the final World Cup races of the year later this month…on @BBCScotland Monday 23 September at 1930 UK time. Well worth watching again! #greatweek @IOForienteering @GBRorienteering @scottish_o @scottish6days
Next Monday, 23 September, 7.30pm on @BBCScotland, the Adventure Show cover the 2024 World Orienteering Championships in Edinburgh this July. Should be a nice reminder of the great event our amazing team of volunteers staged, you should watch too! bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
This week I will be posting about the European Fluid Dynamics Conference #EFDC #EFDC1 on another social media platform. #fluiddynamics
Reminiscing today about Lowly Worm, my favourite character from the Richard Scarry books. I remember seeing the blanket on Lowly Worm’s bed which had the letters LW all over it, and thinking, ‘YES, that’s what us people with the initials LW are like, we are the BEST people.’
