This work deals with numerical simulation of water freezing and thawing in a complex three-dimensional geometry of a porous medium. The porous structure is represented by a virtual container filled with glass beads. Phase transition…
We study a one-parameter family of countably piecewise linear interval maps, which, although Markov, fail the `large image property'. This leads to conservative as well as dissipative behaviour for different maps in the family with respect…
We study the nonlocal Stefan problem, where the phase transition is described by a nonlocal diffusion as well as the change of enthalpy functions. By using a stochastic optimization approach introduced for the local case, we construct…
Semiflexible polymers in poor solvents exhibit a rich variety of collapsed morphologies, including globules, toroids, and rodlike bundles, arising from the competition between attractive interactions and chain stiffness. Computer…

Using Langevin dynamics complemented by Wang-Landau Monte Carlo simulations, we study the phase behavior of single and multiple semiflexible polymer chains in solution under poor-solvent conditions. In the case of a single chain, we obtain…
In topology optimization of fluid-dependent problems, there is a need to interpolate within the design domain between fluid and solid in a continuous fashion. In density-based methods, the concept of inverse permeability in the form of a…

A streamwise-constant model is presented to investigate the basic mechanisms responsible for the change in mean flow occuring during pipe flow transition. Using a single forced momentum balance equation, we show that the shape of the…
If a porous media is being damaged by excessive stress, the elastic matrix at every infinitesimal volume separates into a 'solid' and a 'broken' component. The 'solid' part is the one that is capable of transferring stress, whereas the…
A thermodynamic phase transition denotes a drastic change of state of a physical system due to a continuous change of thermodynamic variables, as for instance pressure and temperature. The classical van der Waals equation of state is the…
Recently it was obtained in [Tarzia, Thermal Sci. 21A (2017) 1-11] for the classical two-phase Lam\'e-Clapeyron-Stefan problem an equivalence between the temperature and convective boundary conditions at the fixed face under a certain…
Many metal manufacturing processes involve phase change phenomena, which include melting, boiling, and vaporization. These phenomena often occur concurrently. A prototypical 1D model for understanding the phase change phenomena is the…
The flow of two macroscopically immiscible, viscous, incompressible fluids with unmatched densities is studied, where a transfer of mass between the constituents by phase transition is taken into account. To this end, two…
In this paper we formulate a Stefan problem appropriate when the thermophysical properties are distinct in each phase and the phase-change temperature is size or velocity dependent. Thermophysical properties invariably take different values…
We study the steady state of driven elastic strings in disordered media below the depinning threshold. In the low-temperature limit, for a fixed sample, the steady state is dominated by a single configuration, which we determine exactly…
