Scattering of normally incident longitudinal and transverse acoustic waves by a randomly rough surface of an elastically isotropic solid is analyzed within the small perturbation approach. In the limiting case of a large correlation length…
We examine the geometrical and topological properties of surfaces surrounding clusters in the 3--$d$ Ising model. For geometrical clusters at the percolation temperature and Fortuin--Kasteleyn clusters at $T_c$, the number of surfaces of…

In this paper a relative number density parameter, called the neighborhood function, is introduced so that the crowded nature of the neighborhood of individual sources can be described. With this parameter one can determine the probability…
The properties of a two-dimensional low density (n<<1) electron system with strong onsite Hubbard attraction U>W (W is the bandwidth) in the presence of a strong random potential V uniformly distributed in the range from -V to +V are…
We study conditioned random-cluster measures with edge-parameter p and cluster-weighting factor q satisfying q \ge 1. The conditioning corresponds to mixed boundary conditions for a spin model. Interfaces may be defined in the sense of…
We study the forced fluid invasion of an air-filled model porous medium at constant flow rate, in 1+1 dimensions, both experimentally and theoretically. We focus on the non-local character of the interface dynamics, due to liquid…
We study the boundary regularity of local weak solutions to nonlinear parabolic systems of the form \begin{equation*} \partial_t u^i - \mathrm{div} \big( a(|Du|) Du^i \big)= f^i, \qquad i=1,\dots,N, \end{equation*} in a space-time cylinder…
Recently Biskup et al. [Europhys. Lett. 60 (2002) 21] studied the behaviour of d-dimensional finite-volume liquid-vapour systems at a fixed excess $\delta N$ of particles above the ambient gas density. They identify a dimensionless…
We consider a cluster growth model on Z^d, called internal diffusion limited aggregation (internal DLA). In this model, random walks start at the origin, one at a time, and stop moving when reaching a site not occupied by previous walks. It…
We study the two-dimensional domain morphology of twisted nematic liquid crystals during their phase-ordering kinetics [R. A. L. Almeida, Phys. Rev. Lett. 131 (2023) 268101], which is a physical candidate to self-generate critical clusters…
We consider the Widom--Rowlinson model in which hard balls of two possible colors are constrained to a hard-core repulsion between particles of different colors, in quenched random environments. These random environments model spatially…
We consider a nonlocal approximation of the quadratic porous medium equation where the pressure is given by a convolution with a mollification kernel. It is known that when the kernel concentrates around the origin, the nonlocal equation…
The turbulent boundary layer scaling parameters for the velocity profile are usually associated with either the inner viscous region or the outer boundary layer region. It has been a long-held view that complete similarity of the velocity…
In a statistical cluster or loop model such as percolation, or more generally the Potts models or O(n) models, a pinch point is a single bulk point where several distinct clusters or loops touch. In a polygon P harboring such a model in its…
Fluctuations of the local volume fraction within granular materials have previously been observed to decrease as the system approaches jamming. We experimentally examine the role of boundary conditions and inter-particle friction $\mu$ on…
Evaporation of a deformable droplet under convection is investigated and the performance of the classical and Abramzon-Sirignano (A-S) models is evaluated. Using the Immersed Boundary/Front-Tracking (IB/FT) method, interface-resolved…
In this article we look at the coarsening rate in two standard models of Ostwald Ripening. Specifically, we look at a discrete droplet population model, which in the limit of an infinite droplet population reduces to the classical…
We analyze intermittence and roughening of an elastic interface or domain wall pinned in a periodic potential, in the presence of random-bond disorder in (1+1) and (2+1) dimensions. Though the ensemble average behavior is smooth, the…
The main focus of this article concerns the strongly percolative regime of the vacant set of random interlacements on $ \mathbb{Z}^d$, with $d \ge 3$. We investigate the occurrence in a large box of an excessive fraction of sites that get…
