Our understanding of both structure and dynamics of adsorbed liquids heavily relies on the capillary wave Hamiltonian, but a thorough test of this model is still lacking. Here we study the capillary wave fluctuations of a liquid film with…
The characteristics of the hydro-thermal flow which occurs when a cold fluid is injected into a hot fractured bedrock depend on the morphology of the fracture. We consider a sharp triangular asperity, invariant in one direction, perturbing…
A general and local reactive boundary condition (RBC) for studying first-order equilibrium reactions using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is presented. Its main characteristics are accurate reproduction of wall diffusion, invariance to…
In this paper, the self-propelled motion of Leidenfrost droplets on ratchet surfaces is numerically investigated with a thermal multiphase lattice Boltzmann model with liquid-vapor phase change. The capability of the model for simulating…
Lattice Boltzmann model for viscoelastic flow simulation is proposed; elastic effects are taken into account in the framework of Maxwell model. The following three examples are studied using the proposed approach: a transverse velocity…
In this paper, a lattice Boltzmann (LB) model with double distribution functions is proposed for two-phase flow in porous media where one distribution function is used for pressure governed by the Poisson equation, and the other is applied…
In this paper, the performance of two lattice Boltzmann method formulations for yield-stress (i.e. viscoplastic) fluids has been investigated. The first approach is based on the popular Papanastasiou regularisation of the fluid rheology in…
In this work, we proposed a diffuse interface model for the dendritic growth with thermosolutal convection. In this model, the sharp boundary between the fluid and solid dendrite is replaced by a thin but nonzero thickness diffuse…
Lattice Boltzmann simulations are used to explore the behavior of liquid crystals subject to Poiseuille flow. In the nematic regime at low shear rates we find two possible steady state configurations of the director field. The selected…
Multi-component lattice Boltzmann models operating in a wide range of fluid viscosity values are developed and examined. The algorithm is constructed with the goal to enable engineering applications without sacrificing simplicity and…
We present a model based on the lattice Boltzmann equation that is suitable for the simulation of dynamic wetting. The model is capable of exhibiting fundamental interfacial phenomena such as weak adsorption of fluid on the solid substrate…
This study develops a computationally efficient phase-field lattice Boltzmann model with the capability to simulate thermocapillary flows. The model was implemented into the open-source simulation framework, waLBerla, and extended to…
We develop the idea that a natural link between Boltzmann schemes and finite volumes exists naturally: the conserved mass and momentum during the collision phase of the Boltzmann scheme induces general expressions for mass and momentum…
We study scaling laws characterizing the inter-diffusive zone between two miscible fluids flowing side by side in a Y-shape laminar micromixer using the lattice Boltzmann method. The lattice Boltzmann method solves the coupled 3D…
We study numerically how multiple deformable capsules squeeze into a constriction. This situation is largely encountered in microfluidic chips designed to manipulate living cells, which are soft entities. We use fully three-dimensional…
Guided motion of emulsions is studied via combined experimental and theoretical investigations. The focus of the work is on basic issues related to driving forces generated via a step-wise (abrupt) change in wetting properties of the…
In this paper, we present the ability of the Lattice Boltzmann (LB) equation, usually applied to simulate fluid flows, to simulate various shapes of crystals. Crystal growth is modeled with a phase-field model for a pure substance,…
Discrete particle simulations are widely used to study large-scale particulate flows in complex geometries where particle-particle and particle-fluid interactions require an adequate representation but the computational cost has to be kept…
Given the multitude of growth habits, pronounced sensitivity to ambient conditions and wide range of scales involved, snowflake crystals are one of the most challenging systems to model. The present work focuses on the development and…
Microfluidic devices offer unique opportunities to directly observe multiphase flow in porous media. However, as a direct representation of flow in geological pore networks, conventional microfluidics face several challenges. One is that…
