Recent theory and experiments have shown how the buildup of a high-concentration polymer layer at a one-dimensional solvent-air interface can lead to an evaporation rate that scales with time as $t^{-1/2}$ and that is insensitive to the…
The instabilities of fluid interfaces represent both a limitation and an opportunity for the fabrication of small-scale devices. Just as non-uniform capillary pressures can destroy micro-electrical mechanical systems (MEMS), so they can…
Exact analytical solutions are derived for the Stokes flows within evaporating sessile drops of spherical and cylindrical cap shapes. The results are valid for arbitrary contact angle. Solutions are obtained for arbitrary evaporative flux…
In this paper, we employ graph theory to establish a connection between the Time Series Expansion (TSE) and Proper Generalized Decomposition (PGD) methods. Using the concept of a directed graph, we demonstrate how one can transition from…
The dispersion coefficient of the constant phase element (CPE) is typically treated as an empirical fitting parameter in the analysis of impedance spectroscopy data, with no clear physical meaning. Here we seek to establish a energy-based…
We formulate a well posed interface formulation for canonical one-dimensional evaporation two-phase model problems (the Stefan and Sucking problems) commonly used to validate production codes. We focus on the interface between the vapor and…
The drying of hydrophobic cavities is believed to play an important role in biophysical phenomena such as the folding of globular proteins, the opening and closing of ligand-gated ion channels, and ligand binding to hydrophobic pockets. We…
Drainage and evaporation can occur simultaneously during the drying of porous media, but the interactions between these processes and their effects on drying are rarely studied. In this work, we develop a pore network model that considers…
Solvent loss due to evaporation in a drying drop can drive capillary flows and solute migration. The flow is controlled by the evaporation profile and the geometry of the drop. We predict the flow and solute migration near a sharp corner of…
Ice-water, water-vapor interfaces and ice surface are studied by molecular dynamics simulations with the SPC/E model of water molecules having the purpose to estimate the profiles of electrostatic potential across the interfaces. We have…
We use molecular dynamics computer simulations and nuclear magnetic resonance experiments to investigate the dynamics of water at interfaces of molecular roughness and low mobility. We find that, when approaching such interfaces, the…
Droplet evaporation has been intensively investigated in past decades owing to its emerging applications in diverse fields of science and technology. Yet the role transport mechanisms has been the subject of a heated debate, especially the…
In simulations of aqueous systems it is common to freeze the bond vibration and angle bending modes in water to allow for a longer time-step $\delta t$ for integrating the equations of motion. Thus $\delta t = 2$ fs is often used in…
A simple fluid, described by point-like particles interacting via the Lennard-Jones potential, is considered under confinement in a slit geometry between two walls at distance Lz apart for densities inside the vapor-liquid coexistence…
The evaporation of sessile droplets placed in close proximity is influenced by complex vapor-vapor interactions, producing a shielding effect that can significantly extend droplet lifetimes. This study presents a systematic experimental…
We present an experimental study on the evaporation of drops on fibers. More specifically, we focus on the droplet lifetime both in quiescent air and in an air flow of constant velocity. We propose a model to describe the evaporation rate…
We study the potential energy landscape explored during a compression-decompression cycle for the SPC/E (extended simple point charge) model of water. During the cycle, the system changes from low density amorphous ice (LDA) to high density…
This fluid dynamics video depicts the evaporation of sessile water droplets placed on heated superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces of varying cavity fraction, F_c, and surface temperature, T_s, above the saturation temperature, T_sat. Images were…
Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed on TIP4P/2005 supercooled water to investigate the molecular diffusion and shear viscosity at various timescales and assess the Stokes-Einstein (SE) and Stokes-Einstein-Debye (SED)…
Among the numerous anomalies of water, the acceleration of dynamics under pressure is particularly puzzling. Whereas the diffusivity anomaly observed in experiments has been reproduced in several computer studies, the parallel viscosity…
