We present here numerical modelling of granular flows with the $\mu(I)$ rheology in confined channels. The contribution is twofold: (i) a model to approximate the Navier-Stokes equations with the $\mu(I)$ rheology through an asymptotic…
The large-scale flow structure and the turbulent transfer of heat and momentum are directly measured in highly turbulent liquid metal convection experiments for Rayleigh numbers varied between $4 \times 10^5$ and $\leq 5 \times 10^9$ and…
We report and analyse the results of extensive discrete element method simulations of three-dimensional gravity driven flows of cohesionless granular media over an erodible bed, the whole being confined between two flat and frictional…
We investigate holographic superfluids in AdS_{d+1} with d=3,4 in the non-backreacted approximation for various masses of the scalar field. In d=3 the phase structure is universal for all the masses that we consider: the critical…
We have investigated the stability and conductivity of unsupported, two dimensional infinite gold nanowires using ab-initio density functional theory (DFT). Two dimensional ribbon like nanowires, with 1-5 rows of gold atoms in the…
Liquid holdup and mass transfer area are critical parameters for packed column design and CO2 capture efficiency prediction. In this paper, a framework was established for modeling the liquid-gas countercurrent flow hydrodynamics in a…
The morphology of fracture surfaces encodes the various complex damage and fracture processes occurring at the microstructure scale that have lead to the failure of a given heterogeneous material. Understanding how to decipher this…
Granular systems confined in vertically vibrated shallow horizontal boxes (quasi two-dimensional geometry) present a liquid to solid phase transition when the frequency of the periodic forcing is increased. An effective model, where grains…
Liquid may give strong cohesion properties to a granular medium, and confer a solid-like behavior. We study the erosion of a fixed circular aggregate of wet granular matter subjected to a flow of dry grains inside a half-filled rotating…
Columnar buckling is a ubiquitous phenomenon that occurs in both living things and man-made objects, regardless of the length scale ranging from macroscopic to nanometric structures. In general, analyzing the post-buckling behavior of a…
Although high-resolution N-body simulations make robust empirical predictions for the density distribution within cold dark matter halos, these studies have yielded little physical insight into the origins of the distribution. We…
As "2D" materials (i.e. materials just a few atoms thick) continue to gain prominence, understanding their symmetries is critical for unlocking their full potential. In this work, we present comprehensive tables that tabulate the rod group…
Since molecular clouds form stars, at least some parts of them must be in a state of collapse. However, there is a long-standing debate as to whether that collapse is local, involving only a small fraction of the cloud mass, or global, with…
We study stable blow-up dynamics in the $L^2$-critical nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation in high dimensions. First, we show that in dimensions $d=4$ to $d=12$ generic blow-up behavior confirms the "log-log" regime in our numerical…
Over the last few years, $ab~initio$ methods have become an increasingly popular tool to evaluate intrinsic carrier transport properties in 2D materials. The lack of experimental information, and the progress made in the development of DFT…
In this paper we will examine the consequence of a canonical theory of quantum dust collapse in 2+1 dimensions. The solution of the WDW equation describing the collapse indicates that collapsing shells outside the apparent horizon are…
Two dimensional (2D) crystal heterostructures are shown to possess a unique opportunity for novel THz nonlinear devices. In contrast to the oxide tunneling barrier, the uniformity of 2D insulators in the thickness control provides an ideal…
The probability distribution function of column density (PDF) has become the tool of choice for cloud structure analysis and star formation studies. Its simplicity is attractive, and the PDF could offer access to cloud physical parameters…
When a large blunt object penetrates into a granular material, the force response exhibits an initial nonlinear relationship with depth that is widely attributed to the formation of a shear jammed stagnant zone. We present an experimental…
