We investigate the behavior of the slip length in Newtonian liquids subject to planar shear bounded by substrates with mixed boundary conditions. The upper wall, consisting of a homogenous surface of finite or vanishing slip, moves at a…
We discuss a methodology that could be gainfully exploited using easily measurable experimental quantities to ascertain if the ``no-slip" boundary condition is appropriate for the flows of fluids past a solid boundary.
The flow of water confined to nanometer-sized pores is central to a wide range of subjects from biology to nanofluidic devices. Despite its importance, a clear picture about nanoscale fluid dynamics is yet to emerge. Here we measured…

In this paper, we investigate the incompressible steady Navier-Stokes system with Navier slip boundary condition in a two-dimensional channel. As long as the width of cross-section of the channel grows more slowly than the linear growth,…

A velocity boundary condition for the Lattice Boltzmann simulation technique has been proposed recently by Hecht and Harting[arxiv:0811.4593]. This boundary condition is independent of the relaxation process during collision and contains no…

Theoretical results on water waves almost always start by assuming irrotationality of the flow in order to simplify the formulation. In this work, we investigate the well-foundedness of this hypothesis via numerical simulations of the…
The appropriate boundary condition between an unconfined incompressible viscous fluid and a porous medium is given by the law of Beavers and Joseph. The latter has been justified both experimentally and mathematically, using the method of…
We propose a two-dimensional flow model of a viscous fluid between two close moving surfaces. We show that its asymptotic behavior, when the distance between the two surfaces tends to zero, is the same as that of the the Navier-Stokes…
