The coupling between advection and diffusion in position space can often lead to enhanced mass transport compared to diffusion without flow. An important framework used to characterize the long-time diffusive transport in position space is…

Taylor dispersion, the gravity-induced enhancement of translational diffusion during the steady settling of a Brownian particle, has so far been analyzed only for torque-free bodies (H. Brenner, J. Colloid Interface Sci., 71(2): 189-208,…

Brownian rods disperse in pressure-driven flow through a coupling between axial shear, anisotropic translational diffusion and Jeffery--Brownian rotation. Classical tube Taylor--Aris theory treats transverse mixing as a scalar process, and…

The transport of self-propelled particles such as bacteria and phoretic swimmers through crowded heterogeneous environments is relevant to many natural and engineering processes, from biofilm formation and contamination processes to…

Active particles exhibit complex transport dynamics in flows through confined geometries such as channels or pores. In this work, we employ a generalized Taylor dispersion (GTD) theory to study the long-time dispersion behavior of active…

We generalize classical dispersion theory for a passive scalar to derive an asymptotic long-time convection-diffusion equation for a solute suspended in a wide, structured channel and subject to a steady low-Reynolds-number shear flow. Our…

One of the cornerstones of turbulent dispersion is the celebrated Taylor formula. This formula expresses the rate of transport (i.e. the eddy diffusivity) of a tracer as a time integral of the fluid velocity auto-correlation function…

We report new measurements of single particle dispersion in turbulent two-dimensional (2D) flows. Laboratory experiments in electromagnetically driven and Faraday wave driven turbulence reveal a transition from weakly dispersing…

Active particles often swim in confined environments. The transport mechanisms, especially the global one as reflected by the Taylor dispersion model, are of great practical interest to various applications. For active dispersion process in…

By applying a hybrid Molecular dynamics and mesoscopic simulation technique, we study the classic convection-diffusion problem of Taylor dispersion for colloidal discs in confined flow. We carefully consider the time and length-scales of…

Overdamped motion of Brownian particles in tilted piecewise linear periodic potentials is considered. Explicit algebraic expressions for the diffusion coefficient, current, and coherence level of Brownian transport are derived. Their…

This study investigates the spatial distribution of inertial particles in turbulent Taylor-Couette flow. Direct numerical simulations are performed using a one-way coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian approach, with a fixed inner wall Reynolds…

We describe how to solve the problem of Taylor dispersion in the presence of absorbing boundaries using an exact stochastic formulation. In addition to providing a clear stochastic picture of Taylor dispersion, our method leads to…

We consider a simple model of the evolution of the concentration of a tracer, subject to a background shear flow by a fluid with viscosity $\nu \ll 1$ in an infinite channel. Taylor observed in the 1950's that, in such a setting, the tracer…

Experiment, theory, and simulation are employed to understand the dispersion of colloidal particles in a periodic array of oscillating harmonic traps generated by optical tweezers. In the presence of trap oscillation, a non-monotonic and…

Taylor dispersion in periodic but highly corrugated channels is studied. Exact analytical expressions for the long-time diffusion constant and drift along the channel are derived to next-to-leading order in the limit of small channel…

Taylor--Aris dispersion of Brownian rods in non-circular ducts is governed by a coupling absent from passive-scalar theory. Pressure-driven shear aligns the rods and makes translational diffusion tensorial, while duct geometry determines…

In the presence of a laminar shear flow, the diffusion of passive colloidal particles is enhanced in the direction parallel to the flow. This classical phenomenon is known as Taylor-Aris dispersion. Besides, microorganisms, such as active…

Diffusion of a solute along a channel is enhanced by hydrodynamic flow, a phenomenon known as Taylor dispersion. In microfluidic applications, the compliance of the channel boundaries modifies the hydrodynamic flow and thus solutal…

We study a quasi-two-dimensional monolayer of granular rods fluidized by a spatially and temporally homogeneous upflow of air. By tracking the position and orientation of the particles, we characterize the dynamics of the system with…
