= Philip Saffman
{wiki=Philip_Saffman}
Philip Saffman is a name associated with various fields, primarily in the context of mathematics and fluid dynamics. He is known for his contributions to the study of viscous fluid flows, particularly in the area of instability and turbulence. One of his notable works includes the "Saffman-Taylor instability," which describes the phenomenon that occurs when a less viscous fluid is injected into a more viscous fluid, leading to the formation of fingers or patterns in the interface between the two fluids.
