Evolution of a suspension drop entrained by Poiseuille flow is studied numerically at a low Reynolds number. A suspension drop is modelled by a cloud of many non-touching particles, initially randomly distributed inside a spherical volume…
The rheology of pressure-driven flows of two-dimensional dense monodisperse emulsions in neutral wetting microchannels is investigated by means of mesoscopic lattice simulations, capable of handling large collections of droplets, in the…
In this contribution, we derive a gas-liquid two-scale multi-fluid model with capillarity effects to enable a novelinterface regularization approach for multi-fluid models. As this unified modelling is capable of switching from theinterface…
The influence of finite system size on the free energy of a spherical particle floating at the surface of a sessile droplet is studied both analytically and numerically. In the special case that the contact angle at the substrate equals…
We present a novel immersed boundary method that implements acoustic perturbation theory to model an acoustically levitated droplet. Instead of resolving sound waves numerically, our hybrid method solves acoustic scattering…
In this paper, we report experimental results on the shape and motion of a mercury droplet, placed in a horizontally rotating cylinder in the rpm range 8-93, so that the Reynolds number of the drop 2500<Re<26000 and its capillary number…
We investigate the dynamics of micron-scale drops pushed across a hydrophobic or superhydrophobic surface. The velocity profile across the drop varies from quadratic to linear with increasing height, indicating a crossover from a sliding to…
We develop a theoretical framework for understanding dynamic morphologies and stability of droplet interface bilayers (DIBs), accounting for lipid kinetics in the monolayers and bilayer, and droplet evaporation due to imbalance between…
The steady-state behavior of a single drop under shear flow has been extensively investigated in the limit of small deformation and negligible inertia effects. In this work, we combine the calculations proposed by Flumerfelt [R. W.…
Using a hydrodynamic lattice-gas model, we study interface growth in a binary fluid with various concentrations of surfactant. We find that the interface is smoothed by small concentrations of surfactant, while microemulsion droplets form…
We investigate the steady-state fluid--structure interaction between a Newtonian fluid flow and a deformable microtube in two novel geometric configurations arising in recent microfluidics experiments. The first configuration is a…
The physics of dynamic friction on water molecule contaminated surfaces is still poorly understood. In line with the growing interest in hydrophobic contact for industrial applications, this paper focuses on friction mechanisms in such…
The non-linear interaction between air and a water droplet just prior to high-speed impingement on a surface is a phenomenon that has been researched extensively and occurs in a number of industrial settings. The role that surface…
We study, by means of computer simulations, the crystal-melt interface of three different systems: hard-spheres, Lennard Jones and the TIP4P/2005 water model. In particular, we focus on the dynamics of surface waves. We observe that the…
Droplets, particularly water, are abundant in nature and artificial systems. Thermal fluctuations imply that droplet interfaces behave like a stormy sea at the sub-nanometer scale.Thermal capillary-waves have been widely studied since 1908…
We derive interface models for 3D Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI), making use of a novel asymptotic expansion in the non-locality of the fluid flow. These interface models are derived for the purpose of studying universal features…
We investigate the low-energy dynamics of small-amplitude surface oscillations of spherical superfluid droplets in vacuum. Starting from the effective field theory of superfluid phonons, we derive an effective action governing the surface…
We describe an experiment involving a mass oscillating in a viscous fluid and analyze viscous damping of harmonic motion. The mechanical oscillator is tracked using a simple webcam and an image processing algorithm records the position of…
Ring-like ripples on the surface of icicles are an example of morphological instability of the ice-water interface during ice growth under supercooled water film flow. The surface of icicles is typically covered with ripples of about 1 cm…
We compare numerical and experimental results exploring the behaviour of liquid drops moving across a surface patterned with hydrophobic and hydrophilic stripes. A lattice Boltzmann algorithm is used to solve the hydrodynamic equations of…
