Segregation induced by a thermal gradient of an impurity in a driven low-density granular gas is studied. The system is enclosed between two parallel walls from which we input thermal energy to the gas. We study here steady states occurring…

In this paper, we develop a phase-field model for binary incompressible (quasi-incompressible) fluid with thermocapillary effects, which allows for the different properties (densities, viscosities and heat conductivities) of each component…
A port-Hamiltonian model for compressible Newtonian fluid dynamics is presented in entirely coordinate-independent geometric fashion. This is achieved by use of tensor-valued differential forms that allow to describe describe the…

The description of a stellar system as a continuous fluid represents a convenient first approximation to stellar dynamics, and its derivation from the kinetic theory is standard. The challenge lies in providing adequate closure…

The second entropy theory for non-equilibrium thermodynamics is used to show that the optimum structure or pattern of a time-dependent system corresponds to the maximum entropy. A formula for the total entropy of convective heat flow is…
The metriplectic framework, which permits to formulate an algebraic structure for dissipative systems, is applied to visco-resistive Magneto-Hydrodynamics (MHD), adapting what had already been done for non-ideal Hydrodynamics (HD). The…
The grand potential for open systems describes thermodynamics of fluid flows at low Mach numbers. A new system of reduced equations for the grand potential and the fluid momentum is derived from the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The…
There are two components in this work that allow solutions of the turbulent channel problem: one is the Galilean-transformed Navier-Stokes equation which gives a theoretical expression for the Reynolds stress; and the second the maximum…
Modelling hydrodynamic lubrication is crucial in the design of engineering components as well as for a fundamental understanding of friction mechanisms. The cornerstone of thin-film flow modelling is the Reynolds equation -- a…

Over the last decades, many diffuse-interface Navier-Stokes Cahn-Hilliard models with non-matching densities have appeared in the literature. These models claim to describe the same physical phenomena, yet they are distinct from one…
