We have given theoretical expressions for the forces exerted on a quasi-2D flat and smooth solid plate immersed into a liquid pool of a simple liquid. All forces given by the theory, the local forces on the top, the contact line and the…
We study the beach problem for water waves. The case we consider is a compact fluid domain, where the free surface intersect the bottom along an edge, with a non-zero contact angle. Using elliptic estimates in domain with edges and a new…
The estimation of the surface tension of water is theoretically dealt on the basis of the dipole molecular model. It is known that the experimentally determined surface tension of freshly exposed surface has a higher value than the nominal…
A six-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation derived by one of the authors(ST) is solved for a turbulent mixing layer to demonstrate that it has a solitary wave solution. Turbulence intensities and Reynolds' stress are calculated using this…
We prove a global well-posedness result for the 2D Muskat problem with surface tension. Given any regular enough initial data which is small in some critical space but possibly large in Lipschitz, we prove that the associated Cauchy problem…
We have shown previously that the dynamics of isolated oil slicks on the water's surface after spills is significantly influenced by surface-wave motion practically at the onset of the spreading process. In this work, we draw our attention…
This paper aims to establish the local and global well-posedness theory in $L^1$, inspired by the approach of Keel and Tao [Internat. Math. Res. Notices, 1998], for the forced wave map equation in the ``external'' formalism. In this…
Surface and interfacial weakly-nonlinear ring waves in a two-layer fluid are modelled numerically, within the framework of the recently derived 2+1-dimensional cKdV-type equation. In a case study, we consider concentric waves from a…
The levelling of short-wave irregularities on a thin film of fluid is primarily due to the action of surface tension. Surface tension gradients are often created by a number of different factor including evaporation, thermal gradients or…
We investigate numerically the influence of a weak current on wind-generated surface deformations for wind velocity below the onset of regular waves. In that regime, the liquid surface is populated by small disorganised deformations…
Extremely compliant elastic materials, such as thin membranes or soft gels, can be deformed when wetted by a liquid drop. It is commonly assumed that the solid capillarity in "soft wetting" can be treated in the same manner as liquid…
We explore the connection between $k$-broad Fourier restriction estimates and sharp regularity $L^p-L^q$ local smoothing estimates for the solutions of the wave equation in $\mathbb{R}^{n}\times \mathbb{R}$ for all $n \geq 3$ via a…
The main result of this work is the construction of multi-solitons solutions that is to say solutions that are time asymptotics to a sum of decoupling solitary waves for the full water waves system with surface tension.
Stable numerical coupling of exterior and interior problems for the wave equation
Recent experiments suggest that shear-enhanced growth of concentration fluctuations in polymer solutions is strongly influenced by solid boundaries. We analyze the dynamics of a model of a sheared polymer solution, accounting for the effect…
The propagation of surface water waves over rough topographical bottoms is investigated by the multiple scattering theory. It is shown that the waves can be localized spatially through the process of multiple scattering and wave…

By means of Monte Carlo computer simulations in the isothermal-isobaric ensemble, we investigated the interaction of a hydrophobic ligand with the hydrophobic surfaces of various curvatures (planar, convex and concave). A simple…
We are interested in this article in investigating the smoothing effect properties of the solutions of the Schrodinger equation. We deduce global well-posedness results for the cubic Schrodinger equation in the exterior of several convex…
We study the impact of the wetting properties on the immiscible displacement of a viscous fluid in disordered porous media. We present a novel pore-scale model that captures wettability and dynamic effects, including the spatiotemporal…
