Recent experiments on active materials, such as dense bacterial suspensions and microtubule-kinesin motor mixtures, show a promising potential for achieving self-sustained flows. However, to develop active microfluidics it is necessary to…
Volume-filling cross-diffusion equations for the components of a tissue structure are formally derived from mass conservation laws and force balances for the interphase pressures and viscous drag forces in a multiphase approach. The…
Flow through porous, elastically deforming media is present in a variety of natural contexts ranging from large-scale geophysics to cellular biology. In the case of incompressible constituents, the porefluid pressure acts as a Lagrange…
The process of formation for an ice crystal with elaborate, symmetrical patterns from the water vapor is usually complicated and the corresponding mechanism is still not clear. Here, we experimentally constructed the 3D tubular ice crystals…
In this paper, we present a model based on a near-far-field bubble formation. We simulate the formation of a gas-bubble in a liquid, e.g., water and the transportation of such a gas-bubble in the liquid. The modelling approach is based on…
Via computer simulations, we provide evidence that the shear rate induced red blood cell tumbling-to-tank-treading transition also occurs at quite high volume fractions, where collective effects are important. The transition takes place as…
Networks of interconnected resistors, springs and beams, or pores are standard models of studying scalar and vector transport processes in heterogeneous materials and media, such as fluid flow in porous media, and conduction, deformations,…
We study a continuous time stochastic process on strings made of two types of particles, whose dynamics mimics the behaviour of microtubules in a living cell; namely, the strings evolve via a competition between (local) growth/shrinking as…
We present a collision model for phase-resolved Direct Numerical Simulations of sediment transport that couple the fluid and particles by the Immersed Boundary Method. Typically, a contact model for these types of simulations comprises a…
Dissipation can be represented in Hamiltonian mechanics in an extended phase space as a symplectic process. The method uses an auxiliary variable which represents the excitation of unresolved dynamics and a Hamiltonian for the interaction…
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies have been increasingly used for blood flow simulations in intracranial aneurysms (ICAs). However, despite the continuous progress of body-fitted CFD solvers, generating a high quality mesh is still…
With the growth of available computational resource, CFD-DEM (computational fluid dynamics-discrete element method) becomes an increasingly promising and feasible approach for the study of sediment transport. Several existing CFD-DEM…
Understanding the flow behavior of complex concentrated slurries is of tremendous importance for industrial waste management. In this study, the transport of three-phase oil sands tailings in a horizontal pipeline is simulated via the…
This PhD thesis deals with the Markov picture of developed turbulence from the theoretical point of view. The thesis consists of two parts. The first part introduces stochastic thermodynamics, the second part aims at transferring the…
A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model is developed to simulate the dynamics of meniscus formation and capillary flow between vertical parallel plates. The arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) approach was employed to predict and…
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…
A high-pressure hydrogen micromix combustor has been investigated using direct numerical simulation with detailed chemistry to examine the flame structure and stabilisation mechanism. The configuration of the combustor was based on the…
Ischemia leading to heart attacks and strokes is the major cause of deaths in the world. Whether an occlusion occurs or not, depends on the ability of a growing thrombus to resist forces exerted on its structure. This manuscript provides…
In this work, we present a mathematical model of the initiation and progression of a low-grade urinary bladder carcinoma. We simulate the crucial processes involved in tumor growth, such as oxygen diffusion, carcinogen penetration, and…
A complete thermodynamical analysis for a blood model, based on mixture theory, is performed. The model is developed considering the blood as a suspension of red blood cells (solid component) in the plasma (fluid component), and taking into…
