From extensive molecular dynamics simulations on immiscible two-phase flows, we find the relative slipping between the fluids and the solid wall everywhere to follow the generalized Navier boundary condition, in which the amount of slipping…
Many multiphase fluid systems, such as those involving immiscible polymers or liquid-liquid systems with surfactants, have shown a breakdown of the no-slip condition at the material interface. This results in systems where the tangential…

This paper shows the unique solvability of elliptic problems associated with two-phase incompressible flows, which are governed by the two-phase Navier-Stokes equations, in unbounded domains such as the whole space separated by a compact…
The central problem in the physics of immiscible two-phase flow in porous media is to find a proper description of the flow at scales large enough so that the medium may be regarded as a continuum: the scale-up problem. So far, the only…
Mechanical contact between solids is almost exclusively modeled in Lagrangian frameworks. While these frameworks have been developed extensively and applied successfully to numerous contact problems, they generally require complex…
In this paper, we present a numerical scheme for the diffuse-interface model in [Abels, Garcke, Gr\"un, M3AS 22(3), 2012] for two-phase flow of immiscible, incompressible fluids. As that model is in particular consistent with…
