We consider coarsening dynamics associated with a Burgers--Cahn--Hilliard system modeling a two-phase flow in one space dimension. Our emphasis is on the effect that coupling between the phase and fluid dynamics has on coarsening rates, and…

Liquid-liquid equilibria phase diagrams have been determined for the systems: 2-methoxyphenol + n-decane, or + n-dodecane, or + n-tetradecane or + n-hexadecane and for 2-ethoxyphenol + n-octane, or + n-dodecane, or + n-tetradecane, or +…

The stressed state of flattened thin elastic sheet, as well as that of translationally symmetric 3D solids, are effectively 2D problems. This paper study equilibrium state-of-stress in metrically-incompatible 2D elastic materials. The…
We present molecular dynamics simulations of a realistic model of an ultrathin film of BaTiO$_3$ sandwiched between short-circuited electrodes to determine and understand effects of film thickness, epitaxial strain and the nature of…
Superconductivity emerges from the spatial coherence of a macroscopic condensate of Cooper pairs. Increasingly strong binding and localization of electrons into these pairs compromises the condensate's phase stiffness, thereby limiting…
We examine the long-term behaviour of non-integrable, energy-conserved, 1D systems of macroscopic grains interacting via a contact-only generalized Hertz potential and held between stationary walls. We previously showed that in homogeneous…
