We consider the Hele-Shaw flow that arises from injection of two-dimensional fluid into a point of a curved surface. The resulting fluid domains have and are more or less determined implicitly by a mean value property for harmonic…
We introduce and investigate a generalization of the Hele-Shaw flow with injection where several droplets compete for space as they try to expand due to internal pressure while still preserving their topology. Droplets are described by…
The Laplacian growth (the Hele-Shaw problem) of multi-connected domains in the case of zero surface tension is proven to be equivalent to an integrable systems of Whitham equations known in soliton theory. The Whitham equations describe…
We study a diffuse interface model describing the motion of two viscous fluids driven by the surface tension in a Hele-Shaw cell. The full system consists of the Cahn-Hilliard equation coupled with the Darcy's law. We address the physically…
We study a diffuse interface model describing the evolution of the flow of a binary fluid in a Hele-Shaw cell. The model consists of a Cahn-Hilliard-Darcy (CHD) type system with transport and mass source. A relevant physical application is…
The application of oscillatory flow around an obstacle drives a steady ``streaming'' due to inertial rectification, which has been used in a host of microfluidic applications. While theory has focused largely on two-dimensional (2D) flows,…
In this paper we study the regularity property of Hele-Shaw flow, where source and drift are present in the evolution. More specifically we consider H\"{o}lder continuous source and Lipschitz continuous drift. We show that if the free…
Parallel flow in a Hele-Shaw cell occurs when two immiscible liquids flow with relative velocity parallel to the interface between them. The interface is unstable due to a Kelvin-Helmholtz type of instability in which fluid flow couples…
We prove that the Cauchy problem is well-posed in a strong sense and in a general setting. Our main result is the construction of an abstract semi-flow for the Hele-Shaw problem within general fluid domains (enabling, for instance, changes…
The theory of quadrature domains for harmonic functions and the Hele-Shaw problem of the fluid dynamics are related subjects of the complex variables and mathematical physics. We present results generalizing the above subjects for elliptic…
We present an analytical study, validated by numerical simulations, of electroosmotic flow in a Hele-Shaw cell with non-uniform surface charge patterning. Applying the lubrication approximation and assuming thin electric double layer, we…
We prove short time existence and uniqueness of the Laplacian flow starting at an arbitrary closed $G_2$-structure. We establish long time existence and convergence of the Laplacian flow starting near a torsion-free $G_2$-structure. We…
Two dimensional free surface flows in Hele-Shaw configurations are a fertile ground for exploring nonlinear physics. Since Saffman and Taylor's work on linear instability of fluid--fluid interfaces, significant effort has been expended to…
A Hele-Shaw cell is a device used to study fluid flow between two parallel plates separated by a small gap. The governing equation of flow within a Hele-Shaw cell is Darcy's law, which also describes flow through a porous medium. In this…
We present a computational framework to address the flow of two immiscible viscous liquids which co-flow into a shallow rectangular container at one side, and flow out into a holding container at the opposite side. Assumptions based on the…
Topology changes in multi-phase fluid flows are difficult to model within a traditional sharp interface theory. Diffuse interface models turn out to be an attractive alternative to model two-phase flows. Based on a…
The Schwarz function has played an elegant role in understanding and in generating new examples of exact solutions to the Laplacian growth (or "Hele- Shaw") problem in the plane. The guiding principle in this connection is the fact that…
I show that the evolution of a two dimensional surface in a Laplacian field can be described by Hamiltonian dynamics. First the growing region is mapped conformally to the interior of the unit circle, creating in the process a set of…
We study the dynamics of the interface between two incompressible 2-D flows where the evolution equation is obtained from Darcy's law. The free boundary is given by the discontinuity among the densities and viscosities of the fluids. This…
We consider the problem of existence of certain symmetrical solutions of Stokes equation on a three-dimensional manifold $M$ with a general metric possessing symmetry. These solutions correspond to unidirectional flows. We have been able to…
