We study the radial relaxation dynamics toward equilibrium and time-periodic pulsating spherically symmetric gas bubbles in an incompressible liquid due to thermal effects. The asymptotic model ([A. Prosperetti, J. Fluid Mech., 1991] and…
The memory kernel for a tagged particle in a fluid, computed from molecular dynamics simulations, decays algebraically as $t^{-3/2}$. We show how the hydrodynamic Basset-Boussinesq force naturally emerges from this long-time tail and…

We present a model for the relative velocity of inertial particles in turbulent flows. Our general formulation shows that the relative velocity has contributions from two terms, referred to as the generalized acceleration and generalized…
Inertial particles (i.e. with mass and of finite size) immersed in a fluid in motion are unable to adapt their velocities to the carrying flow and thus they have been the subject of much interest in fluid mechanics. In this paper we…
We extend the recently developed generalized Floquet theory [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 170602 (2013)] to systems with infinite memory. In particular, we show that a lower asymptotic bound exists for the Floquet exponents associated to such…
Droplets, solid particles, and gas bubbles in unsteady flows experience the Basset-Boussinesq history force (BBH) in addition to steady viscous drag, added mass, and buoyancy. Although physically relevant, the BBH term is often neglected…
We compute the full set of second-order inertial corrections to the instantaneous force and torque acting on a small spherical rigid particle moving unsteadily in a general steady linear flow. This is achieved by using matched asymptotic…
In this paper we study the quasi-static problem for a viscoelastic fluid by means of the concept of minimal state. This implies the use of a different free energy defined in a wider space of data. The existence and uniqueness is proved in…
We study the asymptotic long-time behavior of Darcy--Boussinesq convection in layered porous media with narrow transition zones in the material properties. As the transition-layer width tends to zero, we prove the upper semi-continuous…
In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of spherical droplets in the presence of a source-sink pair flow field. The dynamics of the droplets is governed by the Maxey-Riley equation with Basset-Boussinesq history term neglected. We find…
We study the off-equilibrium dynamics of a particle in a general $N$-dimensional random potential when $N \to \infty$. We demonstrate the existence of two asymptotic time regimes: {\it i.} stationary dynamics, {\it ii.} slow aging dynamics…
