Degradation in performances of air conditioners and refrigerators is caused by a frost formation and adhesion on the surface. In the present study, by means of the classical molecular dynamics simulation, we investigate how and how much the…

Understanding heat transfer across solid-liquid interfaces is central to thermal management and energy technologies, yet whether the interfacial thermal conductance (ITC) depends on the timescale of heating remains unclear. Here we use…

We show that, at high densities, fully variational solutions of solid-like type can be obtained from a density functional formalism originally designed for liquid 4He. Motivated by this finding, we propose an extension of the method that…

The phase-field-crystal model is used to access the structure and thermodynamics of interfaces between two coexisting liquid crystalline phases in two spatial dimensions. Depending on the model parameters there is a variety of possible…

An accurate description of the structure and dynamics of interfacial water is essential for phospholipid membranes, since it determines their function and their interaction with other molecules. Here we consider water confined in stacked…

We consider a simplified physics of the could interface where condensation, evaporation and radiation are neglected and momentum, thermal energy and water vapor transport is represented in terms of the Boussinesq model coupled to a passive…

We investigate the structural similarities between liquid water and 53 ices, including 20 knowncrystalline phases. We base such similarity comparison on the local environments that consist of atoms within a certain cutoff radius of a…

Spectra of thermal fluctuations of a wide range of interfaces, from liquid/air, viscoelastic material/air, liquid/liquid, to liquid/viscoelastic material interfaces, were measured over 100 Hz to 10 MHz frequency range. The obtained spectra…

Computational studies of liquid water and its phase transition into vapor have traditionally been performed using classical water models. Here we utilize the Deep Potential methodology -- a machine learning approach -- to study this…

Using molecular dynamics simulations and methods of importance sampling, we study the thermodynamics and dynamics of sodium chloride in the aqueous premelting layer formed spontaneously at the interface between ice and its vapor. We uncover…

All-atom molecular dynamics simulations of 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine lipid membranes reveal a membrane phase transition dictated drastic growth in the interface water (IW) heterogeneity length scales. It acts as an…

Aqueous solid-liquid interfaces (SLI) are ubiquitous in nature and technology, often hosting molecular-level processes with macroscopic consequences. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations offer a tool of choice to investigate interfacial…

The formation of smart emulsions or foams whose stability can be controlled on-demand by switching external parameters is of great interest for basic research and applications. An emerging group of smart stabilizers are microgels, which are…

Ice melting into saline water plays a fundamental role in the dynamics near the ice-ocean interface in polar oceans. The physics of ice melting involves a non-trivial interplay between thermodynamics at the interface, hydrodynamic transport…

The growing trend towards engineering interfacial complexion (or phase) transitions has been seen in the grain boundary and solid surface systems.Meanwhile, little attention has been paid to the chemically heterogeneous solid/liquid…

Different computational techniques in combination with molecular dynamics computer simulation are used to to determine the wall-liquid and the wall-crystal interfacial free energies of a modified Lennard-Jones (LJ) system in contact with a…

We study the structure and dynamics of the interface separating a passive fluid from a microtubule-based active fluid. Turbulent-like active flows power giant interfacial fluctuations, which exhibit pronounced asymmetry between regions of…

Context. The level of porosity of interstellar ices - largely comprised of amorphous solid water (ASW) - contains clues on the trapping capacity of other volatile species and determines the surface accessibility that is needed for solid…

The application of the Young-Laplace equation to a solid-liquid interface is considered. Computer simulations show that the pressure inside a solid cluster of hard spheres is smaller than the external pressure of the liquid (both for small…

The flow near a moving contact line depends on the dynamic contact angle, viscosity ratio, and capillary number. We report experiments involving immersing a plate into a liquid bath, concurrently measuring the interface shape, interfacial…
