We consider the thin-film equation $\partial_t h + \nabla \cdot \left(h^2 \nabla \Delta h\right) = 0$ in physical space dimensions (i.e., one dimension in time $t$ and two lateral dimensions with $h$ denoting the height of the film in the…
We prove the existence of finite-energy weak solutions to a regularized three-dimensional fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problem involving an incompressible, viscous, Newtonian fluid and a multilayered poro(visco)elastic structure. The…
Many nanostructures today are low-dimensional and flimsy, and therefore get easily distorted. Distortion-induced symmetry-breaking makes conventional, translation-periodic simulations invalid, which has triggered developments for new…

According to the dynamic van der Waals theory, we propose a thermodynamically consistent model for non-isothermal compressible two-phase flows with contact line motion. In this model, fluid temperature is treated as a primary variable,…
In this paper we propose a strategy to approximate incompressible hydrostatic free surface Euler and Navier-Stokes models. The main advantage of the proposed models is that the water depth is a dynamical variable of the system and hence the…
The interaction between a viscous fluid and an elastic solid is modeled by a system of parabolic and hyperbolic equations, coupled to one another along the moving material interface through the continuity of the velocity and traction…
