We examine the majorization properties of general thermal-like mixed states depending on a set of parameters. Sufficient conditions which ensure the increase in mixedness, and hence of any associated entropic form, when these parameters are…
Simple homogeneous shear flows of frictionless, deformable particles are studied by particle simulations at large shear rates and for differently soft, deformable particles. The particle stiffness sets a time-scale that can be used to scale…
Balance laws of coupled bulk-surface-bulk fluid flows are considered. We carefully investigate how do the interface conditions influence the total mass, total momentum and total energy of the system.
By using high molecular weight fluorescent passive tracers with different diffusion coefficients and by changing the fluid velocity we study dependence of a characteristic mixing length on the Peclet number, $Pe$, which controls the mixing…
When driven out of equilibrium by a temperature gradient, fluids respond by developing a nontrivial, inhomogeneous structure according to the governing macroscopic laws. Here we show that such structure obeys strikingly simple scaling laws…
This study introduces novel physics-based scaling laws to estimate the propulsive performance of synchronously pitching foils in various schooling configurations at Re=4000. These relations are derived from quasi-steady lift-based and added…
We report, for the first time, the dependence of the multiplicity of different fragments on the system size employing a quantum molecular dynamics model. This dependence is extracted from the simulations of symmetric collisions of Ca+Ca,…
Aggregation processes with an arbitrary number of conserved quantities are investigated. On the mean-field level, an exact solution for the size distribution is obtained. The asymptotic form of this solution exhibits nontrivial ``double''…
We present a calculation of the electroweak mixing parameter $\sin^2 \theta_{eff}^{lept}$ that incorporates known higher order effects, shares the desirable convergence properties of the $\bar{MS}$ scheme, and has the important theoretical…
Employing a suitable scaling rule in gas-liquid flow can produce dynamically comparable results, which helps in the development of flow models applicable to a wide range of flow conditions and reduces the carbon footprint; however, matching…
We explore phenomenological consequences of coupling a non-conformal scale-invariant theory to the standard model. We point out that, under certain circumstances, non-conformal scale-invariant theories have oscillating correlation functions…
Scaling laws illuminate Nature's fundamental biological principles and guide bioinspired materials and structural designs. In simple cases they are based on the fundamental principle that all laws of nature remain unchanged (i.e.,…
Analytical expressions are derived for sums of matrix elements and their squared moduli over many-body states with given total spin --- the states built from spin and spatial wavefunctions belonging to multidimensional irreducible…
Mixture fraction-based models are widely employed for predicting turbulent non-premixed combustion processes due to their cost-effectiveness and well-established subfilter closure. In these models, the transport of reactive scalars in…
Products between phase-type distributed random variables and any independent, positive and continuous random variable are studied. Their asymptotic properties are established, and an expectation-maximization algorithm for their effective…
A modification of Coulomb's law of friction uses a variable coefficient of friction that depends on a power law in the energy of mechanical oscillation. Through the use of three different exponents: 0, 1/2 and 1; all commonly encountered…
Development of the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability leads to mixing of two substances separated by contact boundary. Mixture of two fluids is confined between two mixing fronts. Universal asymptotics follows the transition stage at late time.…
A binary mixture made of heavy and light inelastic hard spheres in the free cooling state is considered. First, the regions in the parameter space where the partial granular temperature of the heavy species is larger (or smaller) than that…
Compressed frictional granular matter cannot flow without dilation. Upon forced shearing to generate flow, the amount of dilation may depend on the initial preparation and a host of material variables. On the basis of both experiments and…
Fundamental Measure Theory (FMT) is a successful and versatile approach for describing the properties of the hard-sphere fluid and hard-sphere mixtures within the framework of classical density functional theory (DFT). Lutsko [Phys. Rev. E…
