We study the thermodynamic behavior of nonpolar liquid mixtures in the vicinity of curved charged objects, such as electrodes or charged colloids. For small enough charge on the object, or equivalently, small potential, the…
In this study, the impact of turbulent diffusion on mixing of biochemical reaction models is explored by implementing and validating different models. An original codebase called CHAD (Coupled Hydrodynamics and Anaerobic Digestion) is…
The avalanche mixing of granular solids in a slowly rotated 2D upright drum is studied. We demonstrate that the account of the difference $\delta$ between the angle of marginal stability and the angle of repose of the granular material…
New insights into phase separation in colloidal suspensions are provided via a new dynamical theory based on the Polydisperse Lattice-Gas model. The model gives a simplified description of polydisperse colloids, incorporating a hard-core…
The phase diagram of a charged colloidal system (Laponite) has been investigated by dynamic light scattering in a previously unexplored range of salt and clay concentrations. Specifically the clay weight and salt molar concentrations have…
The effects of chaotic advection and diffusion on fast chemical reactions in two-dimensional fluid flows are investigated using experimentally measured stretching fields and fluorescent monitoring of the local concentration. Flow symmetry,…
In drying liquid films of polymer-colloid mixtures, the stratification in which polymers are placed on top of larger colloids is studied. It is often presumed that the formation of segregated polymer-colloid layers is solely due to the…
The evaporation of multi-component droplets is relevant to various applications but challenging to study due to the complex physicochemical dynamics. Recently, Li (2018) reported evaporation-triggered segregation in 1,2-hexanediol-water…
The dispersed phase in turbulence can vary from almost inviscid fluid to highly viscous fluid. By changing the viscosity of the dispersed droplet phase, we experimentally investigate how the deformability of dispersed droplets affects the…
We consider a passive scalar $f$ advected by a strictly monotone shear flow and with a diffusivity parameter $\nu\ll 1$. We prove an estimate on the homogeneous $\dot{H}^{-1}$ norm of $f$ that combines both the $L^2$ enhanced diffusion…
Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD) is a popular simulation model for investigating hydrodynamic behavior of systems with non-negligible equilibrium thermal fluctuations. DPD employs soft core repulsive interactions between the system…
In this work, we derive particle schemes, based on micro-macro decomposition, for linear kinetic equations in the diffusion limit. Due to the particle approximation of the micro part, a splitting between the transport and the collision part…
We present a systematic analysis of diffusion-controlled evolution and collapse of two identical spatially separated $d$-dimensional $A$-particle islands in the $B$-particle sea at propagation of the sharp reaction front $A+B\to 0$ at equal…
We study a popular kinetic model introduced by Saintillan and Shelley for the dynamics of suspensions of active elongated particles where the particles are described by a distribution in space and orientation. The uniform distribution of…
Mixing at the interface between a convection zone and an adjacent, stably-stratified layer plays a crucial role in shaping the structure and evolution of stars and planets. In this work, we present a suite of 2D and 3D Boussinesq…
The effects of dilution disorder and random-displacement disorder are analyzed for dipolar-coupled magnetic moments confined in a plane, which were originally placed on the square lattice. In order to distinguish the different phases, new…
Theoretical calculations of the mixed aggregation/coalescence (kFC) rate corresponding to a set of hexadecane-in-water nano-emulsions stabilized with sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) at different NaCl concentrations are presented. The rates…
On approaching the glass transition, the microscopic kinetic unit spends increasing time rattling in the cage of the first neighbours whereas its average escape time, the structural relaxation time $\tau_\alpha$, increases from a few…
We report on salt-dependent interaction potentials of a single charged particle suspended in a binary liquid mixture above a charged wall. For symmetric boundary conditions (BC) we observe attractive particle-wall interaction forces which…
We experimentally study the effects of salt concentration on the flowing dynamics of dense suspensions of micrometer-sized silica particles in microfluidic drums. In pure water, the particles are fully sedimented under their own weight, but…
