This paper discusses the effect of rotation on the boundary layer in high Reynolds number flow over a ridge using a numerical method based on stabilised finite elements that captures steady solutions up to Reynolds number of order $10^6$.…
Long, shallow microchannels embedded in thick soft materials are widely used in microfluidic devices for lab-on-a-chip applications. However, the bulging effect caused by fluid--structure interactions between the internal viscous flow and…
We simulate the flow of two immiscible and incompressible fluids separated by an interface in a homogeneous turbulent shear flow at a shear Reynolds number equal to 15200. The viscosity and density of the two fluids are equal, and various…
Accurate prediction of the transition from laminar flow to turbulence remains an unresolved challenge despite its importance for understanding a variety of environmental, biological, and industrial phenomena. Well over a century of…
Recently, there has been much interest in using lubricated flat and nano-/micro-structured surfaces to achieve extreme liquid-repellency: any foreign droplet immiscible with the underlying lubricant layer was shown to slide off at a small…
An evaporating droplet is a dynamic system in which flow is spontaneously generated to minimize the surface energy, dragging particles to the borders and ultimately resulting in the so-called "coffee-stain effect". The situation becomes…
The migration of a suspended vesicle in an unbounded Poiseuille flow is investigated numerically in the low Reynolds number limit. We consider the situation without viscosity contrast between the interior of the vesicle and the exterior.…
We present a theoretical study of wetting phenomena and interactions between liquid-vapor interfaces based on the density functional theory. The focus is mostly on the impact of long-range van der Waals interactions both within the fluid…
Low Reynolds number turbulence in wall-bounded shear flows \emph{en route} to laminar flow takes the form of oblique, spatially-intermittent turbulent structures. In plane Couette flow, these emerge from uniform turbulence via a…
Recent studies of elasto-capillary phenomena have triggered interest in a basic variant of the classical Young-Laplace-Dupr\'e (YLD) problem: The capillary interaction between a liquid drop and a thin solid sheet of low bending stiffness.…
Recently, Kami\'nski et al. [1] demonstrated that a two-dimensional streamwise waviness with carefully selected amplitude and period can be effectively used in postponement of a flow separation at high Reynolds number which is out of reach…
An isolated Leidenfrost droplet levitating over its own vapor above a superheated flat substrate is considered theoretically, the superheating for water being up to several hundred degrees above the boiling temperature. The focus is on the…
The expected universality of small-scale properties of turbulent flows implies isotropic properties of the velocity gradient tensor in the very large Reynolds number limit. Using direct numerical simulations, we determine the tensors formed…
The rheology of pressure-driven flows of two-dimensional dense monodisperse emulsions in neutral wetting microchannels is investigated by means of mesoscopic lattice simulations, capable of handling large collections of droplets, in the…
Turbulent emulsions are complex physical systems characterized by a strong and dynamical coupling between small-scale droplets and large-scale rheology. By using a specifically designed Taylor-Couette (TC) shear flow system, we are able to…
Dripping, jetting and tip streaming have been studied up to a certain point separately by both fluid mechanics and microfluidics communities, the former focusing on fundamental aspects while the latter on applications. Here, we intend to…
Droplet impact in airflow environments is ubiquitous in nature and industry, making the understanding of this multiphase behavior crucial for technologies such as anti-icing and spray cooling. In this study, the dynamics of droplet impact…
Data available in literature from direct numerical simulations of two-dimensional turbulent channels by Lee & Moser (2015), Bernardini et al. (2014), Yamamoto and Tsuji (2018) and Orlandi et al. (2015) in a large range of Reynolds number…
In this note we investigate the asymptotic behavior of plane shear thickening fluids around a bounded obstacle. Different from the Navier-Stokes case considered by Gilbarg-Weinberger in \cite{GW1978}, where the good structure of the…
In this article we reconsider high Reynolds number boundary layer flows of fluids with viscoelastic properties. We show that a number of previous studies that have attempted to address this problem are, in fact, incomplete. We correctly…
