Interfaces between two fluids are ubiquitous and of special importance for industrial applications, e.g., stabilisation of emulsions. The dynamics of fluid-fluid interfaces is difficult to study because these interfaces are usually…
Macro-textured superhydrophobic surfaces can reduce droplet-substrate contact times of impacting water droplets, however, surface designs with similar performance for significantly more viscous liquids are missing, despite their importance…
Dispersion of low-density rigid particles with complex geometries is ubiquitous in both natural and industrial environments. We show that while explicit methods for coupling the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and Newton's equations…
This paper introduces a novel approach to compute the numerical fluxes at the cell boundaries in the finite volume approach. Explicit gradients used in deriving the reconstruction polynomials are replaced by high-order gradients computed by…
The non-linear interaction between air and a water droplet just prior to high-speed impingement on a surface is a phenomenon that has been researched extensively and occurs in a number of industrial settings. The role that surface…
Fluid-induced slip of fractures is characterized by strong multiphysics couplings. Three physical processes are considered: Flow, rock deformation and fracture deformation. The fractures are represented as lower-dimensional objects embedded…
This work develops scientific computing techniques to further the exploration of using boundary control alone to optimize mixing in Stokes flows. The theoretical foundation including mathematical model and the optimality conditions for…
This article presents a new boundary integral approach for finding optimal shapes of peristaltic pumps that transport a viscous fluid. Formulas for computing the shape derivatives of the standard cost functionals and constraints are…
We investigate the coalescence of surfactant-laden water droplets by using several different surfactant types and a wide range of concentrations by means of a coarse-grained model obtained by the statistical associating fluid theory. Our…
Atmospheric aerosols can consist of inorganic and organic substances, including surfactants at a significant concentration. Importantly, the latter can reduce the surface tension at the liquid-vapor surfaces, where they preferentially…
We consider surface finite elements and a semi-implicit time stepping scheme to simulate fluid deformable surfaces. Such surfaces are modeled by incompressible surface Navier-Stokes equations with bending forces. Here, we consider closed…
A discrete unified gas kinetic scheme (DUGKS) coupled with the immersed boundary (IB) method is developed to perform interface-resolved simulation of particle-laden flows. The present method (IB-DUGKS) preserves the respective advantages of…
Two-phase flow of two Newtonian incompressible viscous fluids with a soluble surfactant and different densities of the fluids can be modeled within the diffuse interface approach. We consider a Navier-Stokes/Cahn-Hilliard type system…
In this work, we propose and test the validity of a modified Phase Field Method (PFM), which was specifically developed for large scale simulations of turbulent flows with large and deformable surfactant-laden droplets. The time evolution…
A new reformulation of a free boundary problem for the Stokes equations governing a viscous flow with overdetermined condition on the free boundary is proposed. The idea of the method is to transform the governing equations to a boundary…
We study the effect of insoluble surfactants on the impact of surfactant-free droplets on surfactant-laden thin liquid films via a fully three-dimensional direct numerical simulations approach that employs a hybrid…
The accurate mathematical modeling of droplet impact dynamics on micro-structured surfaces is fundamental to understanding and predicting complex fluid behaviors relevant to a wide range of engineering and scientific applications. In…
Physically plausible fluid simulations play an important role in modern computer graphics and engineering. However, in order to achieve real-time performance, computational speed needs to be traded-off with physical accuracy. Surrogate…
We show that the standard boundary integral operators, defined on the unit sphere, for the Stokes equations diagonalize on a specific set of vector spherical harmonics and provide formulas for their spectra. We also derive analytical…
In order for a droplet to rebound rather than coalesce with a liquid bath, a layer of gas must persist throughout the impact. This gas, typically an air layer acts as a lubricant to the system and permits a pressure transfer between the two…
