In this paper we study the dynamics of an incompressible viscous fluid evolving in an open-top container in two dimensions. The fluid mechanics are dictated by the Navier-Stokes equations. The upper boundary of the fluid is free and evolves…
In this paper, we develop a novel phase-field model for fluid-structure interaction (FSI), that is capable to handle very large deformations as well as topology changes like contact of the solid to the domain boundary. The model is based on…
This paper is devoted to the numerical study of droplet impact on solid substrates in presence of surfactants. We formulate the problem in an energetically variational framework and introduce an incompressible Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes…
The Cahn--Hilliard equation is a fundamental model that describes phase separation processes of binary mixtures. In recent years, several types of dynamic boundary conditions have been proposed in order to account for possible short-range…
A difficulty in the classical hydrodynamic analysis of moving contact-line problems, associated with the no-slip wall boundary condition resulting in an unbalanced divergence of the viscous stresses, is reexamined with a smoothed,…
In this paper, we introduce a model describing the dynamic of vesicle membranes within an incompressible viscous fluid in $3D$ domains. The system consists of the Navier-Stokes equations, with an extra stress tensor depending on the…
We consider the impingement of a droplet onto a wall with high impact speed. To model this process we favour a diffuse-interface concept. Precisely, we suggest a compressible Navier--Stokes--Allen--Cahn model. Basic properties of the model…
A phase eld approach is developed to model wetting and heterogeneous crystal nucleation of an undercooled pure liquid in contact with a sharp wall. We discuss various choices for the boundary condition at the wall and determine the…
A computationally efficient, low order finite element formulation is developed for modelling the Navier-Stokes-Cahn-Hilliard equations, which have been established as a promising phase field modelling approach for simulation of immiscible…
Second-order phase field models have emerged as an attractive option for capturing the advection of interfaces in two-phase flows. Prior to these, state-of-the-art models based on the Cahn-Hilliard equation, which is a fourth-order…
The effect of thermal fluctuations near a contact line of a liquid interface partially wetting an impenetrable substrate is studied analytically and numerically. Promoting both the interface profile and the contact line position to random…
We introduce a new phase-field model which allows for simulation of incoherent solid/solid transformations. Contrary to previous models which impose coherency at the interface, the zero shear-stress condition characteristic of incoherent…
The conventional no-slip boundary condition leads to a non-integrable stress singularity at a moving contact line. This makes numerical simulations challenging, especially when capillary effects are essential for the dynamics of the flow.…
In this work, we propose a fully discrete energy stable scheme for the phase-field moving contact line model with variable densities and viscosities. The mathematical model consists of a Cahn-Hilliard equation, a Navier-Stokes equation and…
Mechanical contact between solids is almost exclusively modeled in Lagrangian frameworks. While these frameworks have been developed extensively and applied successfully to numerous contact problems, they generally require complex…
We present in this Letter a free-energy approach to the dynamics of a fluid near a nanostructured surface. The model accounts both for the static phase equilibrium in the vicinity of the surface (wetting angles, Cassie-Wenzel transition)…
When a fluid surface adheres to a substrate, the location of the contact line adjusts in order to minimize the overall energy. This adhesion balance implies boundary conditions which depend on the characteristic surface deformation…
The problem of contact angle and hysteresis determination has direct implications for engineering applications of wetting, colloid and surface science. Significant technical challenges can arise under real-world operating conditions,…
We propose a boundary-corrected weak Galerkin mixed finite element method for solving elliptic interface problems in 2D domains with curved interfaces. The method is formulated on body-fitted polygonal meshes, where interface edges are…
We present a theoretical study of the statics and dynamics of a partially wetting liquid droplet, of equilibrium contact angle $\theta_{\rm e}$, confined in a solid wedge geometry of opening angle $\beta$. We focus on a mostly non-wetting…
