Using both dynamical density functional theory and particle-resolved Brownian dynamics simulations, we explore the flow of two-dimensional colloidal solids and fluids driven through a linear channel with a geometric constriction. The flow…
The present article discusses the physics and mechanics of evaporation of pendent, aqueous ferrofluid droplets and modulation of the same by external magnetic field. We show experimentally and by mathematical analysis that the presence of…

The properties of the thermal force driving micron particles in incompressible fluids are studied within the hydrodynamic theory of the Brownian motion. It is shown that the assumption used for the hydrodynamic Langevin equation in its…
The damping of sound waves in magnetized ferrofluids is investigated and shown to be considerably higher than in the non-magnetized case. This fact may be interpreted as a field-enhanced, effective compressional viscosity -- in analogy to…

Quite recently I have proposed a nonperturbative dynamical effective field model (DEFM) to quantitatively describe the dynamics of interacting ferrofluids. Its predictions compare very well with the results from simulations. In this paper I…
Extraordinary light rays propagating inside a hyperbolic metamaterial look similar to particle world lines in a 2+1 dimensional Minkowski spacetime [1]. Magnetic nanoparticles in a ferrofluid are known to form nanocolumns aligned along the…
Hydrodynamics of superfluids can be described by formally dividing the fluid into a normal fluid and a superfluid part. In color-flavor locked quark matter, at least one superfluid component is present due to spontaneous breaking of baryon…
We explore the necking, filament thinning, and pinchoff dynamics of ferrofluid droplets within a magnetic field, via a simple and low-cost experimental method. In our studies, both the Ohnesorge number Oh and the Deborah number De are O1, a…
The central theme of this work is that a stable levitation of a denser non-magnetizable liquid droplet, against gravity, inside a relatively lighter ferrofluid -- a system barely considered in ferrohydrodynamics -- is possible, and exhibits…
The frictional forces of a viscous liquid flow are a major energy loss issue and severely limit microfluidics practical use. Reducing this drag by more than a few tens of percent remain illusive. Here, we show how cylindrical…
Hydrodynamics of plasma in the random magnetic field is considered, which is characterized by the second moment of magnetic induction. Equations of ideal magnetic hydrodynamics in such field are received for an adiabatic process. It is…
A method for the combination of microscopic and macroscopic simulations is developed which is based on the invariance of the macroscopic relative to the microscopic dynamics. The method recognizes the onset and breakdown of the macroscopic…
Spontaneous magnetization of quark liquid is examined on the analogy with that in electron gas. It is pointed out that quark liquid has potential to be ferromagnetic at rather low densities, around nuclear saturation density. Somme comments…
We report on quasi-two-dimensional granular systems in which either one or two large balls is fluidized by an upflow of air in the presence of a background of several hundred smaller beads. A single large ball is observed to propel…
We establish the existence of static doubly periodic patterns (in particular rolls, rectangles and hexagons) on the free surface of a ferrofluid near onset of the Rosensweig instability, assuming a general (nonlinear) magnetisation law. A…
Diffusive transport of particles or, more generally, small objects is a ubiquitous feature of physical and chemical reaction systems. In configurations containing confining walls or constrictions transport is controlled both by the…
We formulate dissipative magnetohydrodynamic equations for finite-temperature superfluid and superconducting charged relativistic mixtures, taking into account the effects of particle diffusion and possible presence of Feynman-Onsager…
The paper reviews the theory of the long-distance spin superfluid transport in solid ferro- and antiferromagnets based on the analysis of the topology, the Landau criterion, and phase slips. Experiments reporting evidence of the existence…
