The behaviour of two dimensional binary and ternary amphiphilic fluids under flow conditions is investigated using a hydrodynamic lattice gas model. After the validation of the model in simple cases (Poiseuille flow, Darcy's law for single…
We develop our existing two-dimensional lattice-gas model to simulate the flow of single-phase, binary-immiscible and ternary-amphiphilic fluids. This involves the inclusion of fixed obstacles on the lattice, together with the inclusion of…
We develop our recently proposed lattice-Boltzmann method for the non-equilibrium dynamics of amphiphilic fluids (Chen, Boghosian, Coveney and Nekovee, Proc. Roy. Soc. London A, 456, 1431 (2000).) Our method maintains an orientational…
We investigate the dynamical behavior of both binary fluid and ternary microemulsion systems in two dimensions using a recently introduced hydrodynamic lattice-gas model of microemulsions. We find that the presence of amphiphile in our…
A lattice Boltzmann model for amphiphilic fluid dynamics is presented. It is a ternary model, in that it conserves mass separately for each chemical species present (water, oil, amphiphile), and it maintains an orientational degree of…
A lattice-Boltzmann model for the study of the dynamics of oil-water-surfactant mixtures is constructed. The model, which is based on a Ginzburg-Landau theory of amphiphilic systems with a single, scalar order parameter, is then used to…
A lattice model for binary mixture of lipids and water is introduced and investigated. The orientational degrees of freedom of the amphiphilic molecules are taken into account in the same way as in the model for oil-water-surfactant…
We report the results of a study of multiphase flow in porous media. A Darcy's law for steady multiphase flow was investigated for both binary and ternary amphiphilic flow. Linear flux-forcing relationships satisfying Onsager reciprocity…
Although shear-induced isotropic-to-lamellar transitions in ternary systems of oil, water and surfactant have been observed experimentally and predicted theoretically by simple models for some time now, their numerical simulation has not…
We report the first results of our three-dimensional, mesoscopic, amphiphilic lattice-Boltzmann model, which has been used to simulate the dynamics of self-assembly of ordered cubic and lamellar phases in binary water-surfactant systems.…
We present a three-dimensional lattice-gas model with trivial thermodynamics, but nontrivial dynamics. The model is characterized by each particle having its own random energy landscape. The equilibrium dynamics of the model were…
We simulate the dynamics of phase assembly in binary immiscible fluids and ternary microemulsions using a three-dimensional hydrodynamic lattice gas approach. For critical spinodal decomposition we perform the scaling analysis in reduced…
We compare two recently developed mesoscale models of binary immiscible and ternary amphiphilic fluids. We describe and compare the algorithms in detail and discuss their stability properties. The simulation results for the cases of…
We investigate a lattice-fluid model defined on a two-dimensional triangular lattice, with the aim of reproducing qualitatively some anomalous properties of water. Model molecules are of the "Mercedes Benz" type, i.e., they possess a D3…
We introduce a mesoscopic three-dimensional Lattice Boltzmann Model which attempts to mimick the physical features associated with cage effects in dynamically heterogeneous fluids. To this purpose, we extend the standard Lattice Boltzmann…
We propose a model for a two dimensional, associative water-like lattice gas with one single variable representing both long and short-range interactions. The corresponding hamiltonian was solved exactly, by state enumeration in a finite…
A lattice Boltzmann model is introduced which simulates oil-water-surfactant mixtures. The model is based on a Ginzburg-Landau free energy with two scalar order parameters. Diffusive and hydrodynamic transport is included. Results are…
We show that the flux-field expansion derived by Boghosian and Coveney for the Rothman-Keller immiscible fluid model can be derived in a simpler and more general way in terms of the completely symmetric tensor kernels introduced by those…
Kinetically-constrained models are lattice-gas models that are used for describing glassy systems. By construction, their equilibrium state is trivial and there are no equal-time correlations between the occupancy of different sites. We…
We show that a phenomenological hydrodynamic lattice-gas model of two-phase flow, developed by Rothman and Keller in 1988 and used extensively for numerical simulations since then, can be derived from an underlying model of particle…
