As one of the most popular interface-capturing methods, the level-set method is inherently non-conservative, and its evolution usually leads to unphysical mass gain/loss. In this paper, a novel conservative level set method is developed for…

We theoretically and numerically investigate the steady flow of two-dimensional granular materials in a rotating drum using the discrete element method and a continuum model with the $\mu(I)$-rheology. The velocity fields obtained from both…
The sphere is well-known as the only generic compact shrinker for mean curvature flow (MCF). In this paper, we characterize the generic dynamics of MCFs with a spherical singularity. In terms of the level set flow formulation of MCF, we…
Flows of granular media down a rough inclined plane demonstrate a number of nonlocal phenomena. We apply the recently proposed nonlocal granular fluidity model to this geometry and find that the model captures many of these effects.…

We construct a one-parameter family of singly periodic translating solutions to mean curvature flow that converge as the period tends to $0$ to the union of a grim reaper surface and a plane that bisects it lengthwise. The surfaces are…
Motivated by Pan-Yang [PY] and Ma-Cheng [MC], we study a general linear nonlocal curvature flow for convex closed plane curves and discuss the short time existence and asymptotic convergence behavior of the flow. Due to the linear structure…
In this paper, we introduce a novel way to represent the interface for two-phase flows with phase change. We combine a level-set method with a Cartesian embedded boundary method and take advantage of both. This is part of an effort to…
In this work, a numerical scheme based on a level-set immersed boundary method is employed for the numerical simulation of the flow around two tandem circular cylinders in the subcritical flow regimes. Three different spacing ratios…
In this paper, we study triply periodic surfaces with minimal surface area under a constraint in the volume fraction of the regions (phases) that the surface separates. Using a variational level set method formulation, we present a…
This paper introduces a Particle Flow Map Level Set (PFM-LS) method for high-fidelity interface tracking. We store level-set values, gradients, and Hessians on particles concentrated in a narrow band around the interface, advecting them via…

The gradient-flow formalism is applied to a non-Abelian gauge theory with scalar and fermionic particles, dubbed "scalar QCD". It is shown that the flowed scalar quark requires a field renormalization, albeit only beyond the one-loop level.…
