Capillary phenomena are involved in many industrial processes, especially those dealing with composite manufacturing. However, their modelling is still challenging. Therefore, a finite element setting is proposed to better investigate this…
The displacement of a more viscous fluid by a less viscous immiscible fluid in confined geometries is a fundamental problem in multiphase flows. Recent experiments have shown that such fluid-fluid displacement in micro-capillary tubes can…
This study presents a first-principles model to predict the two-phase pressure drop in gas-liquid intermittent flow through round capillaries, which serve as the simplest analogous of a porous medium. Building upon the classical capillary…
Heat transfer in the human eyeball, a complex organ, is significantly influenced by various pathophysiological and external parameters. Particularly, heat transfer critically affects fluid behavior within the eye and ocular drug delivery…
In this two-part study we investigate the phase behaviour of a fluid spatially confined in a semi-infinite rectangular pore formed by three orthogonal walls and connected to a reservoir maintaining constant values of pressure and…
A liquid drop spreading over a thin heterogeneous precursor film (such as an inhaled droplet on the mucus-lined wall of a lung airway) will experience perturbations in shape and location as its advancing contact line encounters regions of…
Airway clearance by coughing is a key mechanism for mucus transport, particularly in obstructive lung diseases associated with altered mucus rheology. We investigate the dynamics of a viscoplastic liquid film driven by flow in a turbulent…
We study the influence of capillary effects on the motion of thin elastic plates denser than water drifting in propagating surface gravity waves. Such floaters experience a mean angular drift that rotates them toward two preferential…
Lagrangian statistics and particle transport in edge plasma turbulence are investigated using the Hasegawa-Wakatani model and its modified version. The latter shows the emergence of pronounced zonal flows. Different values of the…
Flow in thin films is highly dependent on the boundary conditions. Here, we study the capillary levelling of thin bilayer films composed of two immiscible liquids. Specifically, a stepped polymer layer is placed atop another, flat polymer…
Using absorbance measurements through a Couette cell containing an emulsion of buoyant droplets, volume fraction profiles are measured at various shear rates. These viscous resuspension experiments allow a direct determination of the normal…
We investigate a two-dimensional network simulator capable of modeling different time dependencies in two-phase drainage displacements. In particular, we focus on the temporal evolution of the pressure due to capillary and viscous forces…
The displacement of multiphase fluid flow in a pore doublet is a fundamental problem, and is also of importance in understanding of the transport mechanisms of multiphase flows in the porous media. During the displacement of immiscible…
Capillary energy barriers have important consequences for immiscible fluid flow in porous media. We derive time-and-space averaging theory to account for non-equilibrium behavior and understand the role of athermal capillary fluctuations in…
In this note, we revisit the problem of the pressure-driven transport of a meniscus through a narrow cylindrical capillary or pore. This generic process finds many applications in science and technology. As it is known that Direct Numerical…
We study the characteristics of fluid-fluid displacement in simple mixed-wet porous micromodels numerically using a dynamic pore network model. The porous micromodel consists of distinct water-wet and oil-wet regions, whose fractions are…
A computational framework is developed to address capillary self-focusing in Step Emulsification. The microfluidic system consists of a single shallow and wide microchannel that merges into a deep reservoir. A continuum approach coupled…
We investigate the stabilization mechanisms of the invasion front in two-dimensional drainage displacement in porous media by using a network simulator. We focus on the process when the front stabilizes due to the viscous forces in the…
Friction drag from a turbulent fluid moving past or inside an object plays a crucial role in domains as diverse as transportation, public utility infrastructure, energy technology, and human health. As a direct measure of the shear-induced…
Measurements of the capillary-driven thinning and breakup of fluid filaments are widely used to extract extensional rheological properties of complex materials. For viscoelastic (e.g., polymeric) fluids, the determination of the longest…
