This study presents the first systematic investigation of the dynamics of individual water droplets in the context of airtanker firefighting. While previous work has focused on ground-deposition patterns measured in standardized field…
Evaporation of multicomponent droplets is important in a wide range of applications, albeit complex, and requires a careful investigation. We experimentally and numerically investigate the evaporation characteristics of spherical,…
-- A scientific hurdle in manufacturing solid films by drying colloidal layers is preventing them from fracturing. This paper examines how the drying rate of colloidal liquids influences the particle packing at the nanoscale in correlation…
In this paper, we address the well-posedness of an evaporation model for a spherical liquid droplet taking into account the convective impact of an air flow in the ambient gas phase. From a mathematical perspective, we are dealing with a…
Induction time, a measure of how long one will wait for nucleation to occur, is an important parameter in quantifying nucleation kinetics and its underlying mechanisms. Due to the stochastic nature of nucleation, efficient methods for…
We investigate the evaporation of a two-dimensional droplet on a solid surface. The solid is flat but with smooth chemical variations that lead to a space-dependent local contact angle. We perform a detailed bifurcation analysis of the…
A numerical model is proposed to simulate the adhesion, compression, and subsequent detachment of a micro-liter droplet from a superhydrophobic surface composed of chemically homogeneous pillars arranged in a periodic fashion, replicating a…
The Langer-Schwartz equations for precipitation are formulated to calculate nucleation, growth and coarsening of second phase precipitates under non-isothermal situations. A field-theoretic steady-state nucleation rate model is used in the…
The evaporation of a tiny amount of water on the solid surface with different wettability has been studied by molecular dynamics simulations. We found that, as the surface changed from hydrophobicity to hydrophility, the evaporation speed…
Nucleation in supersaturated vapor is investigated with two series of molecular dynamics simulations in the canonical ensemble. The applied methods are: (a) analysis of critical nuclei at moderate supersaturations by simulating equilibria…
The thermodynamics of strongly anisotropic crystalline surfaces is analogous to that of a binary mixture exhibiting phase separation. On a metastable planar surface, formation of stable orientations requires a nucleation process, in which…
At first order phase transitions the transition proceeds through droplet nucleation and growth. We discuss a lattice method for calculating the droplet nucleation rate, including the complete dynamical factors. The method is especially…
A survey is given on the applications of hydrodynamic model of nucleus-nucleus collisons, focusing especially on i) the resolution of hydrodynamic equations for arbitrary configurations, by using the smoothed-particle hydrodynamic approach;…
In this work we examine the nucleation from NaCl aqueous solutions within nano-confined environments, employing enhanced sampling molecular dynamics simulations integrated with machine learning-derived reaction coordinates. Through our…
This study examines charge-changing cross sections for 12C, 14N, 16O, and 20Ne projectiles on elemental targets (C, Al, Cu) at a beam energy of around 290 MeV/nucleon. The two-stage abrasion-ablation model is used, with the abrasion stage…
We study numerically the crystallization process in a supersaturated suspension of repulsive colloidal particles driven by simple shear flow. The effect of the shear flow on crystallization is two-fold: while it suppresses the initial…
We present a comprehensive study of nanoparticle deposition from drying of colloidal droplets. By means of lattice Boltzmann modeling and theoretical analysis, various deposition patterns, including mountain-like, uniform and coffee ring,…
We performed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the nucleation of water vapor in order to test nucleation theories. Simulations were performed for a wide range of supersaturation ratios (S = 3-25) and water temperatures (Tw=300-390K).…
Hydrodynamic flow can have complex and far-reaching consequences on the rate of homogenous nucleation. We present a general formalism for calculating the nucleation rates of simply sheared systems. We have derived an extension to the…
Colloidal model systems allow studying crystallization kinetics under fairly ideal conditions with rather well characterized pair interactions and minimized external influences. In complementary approaches therefore experiment, analytic…
