Motivated by the concept of shape invariance in supersymmetric quantum mechanics, we obtain potentials whose spectrum consists of two shifted sets of equally spaced energy levels. These potentials are similar to the Calogero-Sutherland…

Polymers in shear flow are ubiquitous and we study their motion in a viscoelastic fluid under shear. Employing dumbbells as representative, we find that the center of mass motion follows: $\langle x^2_c(t) \rangle \sim \dot{\gamma}^2…
Suppose curves are moving by curvature in a plane, but one embeds the plane in $R^3$ and looks at the plane from an angle. Then circles shrinking to a round point would appear to be ellipses shrinking to an ``elliptical point,'' and the…
The motion of a spherical solid particle in plane Couette flow is governed by a linear problem that has a simple exact solution. As such, there is no need for an approximate analytical representation of the solution; specially when it is…
Compositional simulation is challenging, because of highly nonlinear couplings between multi-component flow in porous media with thermodynamic phase behavior. The coupled nonlinear system is commonly solved by the fully-implicit scheme.…
