In this paper we investigate dynamic wetting in the curtain coating configuration. The two-phase Navier-Stokes equations are solved by a Volume-of-Fluid method on an adaptive Cartesian mesh. We introduce the Navier boundary condition to…

We provide an ab-initio scaling analysis for liquid film thickness and Nusselt number of a steady laminar jet impacting a rotating heated plate. The limiting scaling regimes incorporating the evaporative effects along the liquid-vapor…

We use a method based on the lubrication approximation in conjunction with a residual-based mass-continuity iterative solution scheme to compute the flow rate and pressure field in distensible converging-diverging tubes for Navier-Stokes…

Mathematical modeling of fluid dynamics for computer graphics requires high levels of theoretical rigor to ensure visually plausible and computationally efficient simulations. This paper presents an in-depth theoretical framework analyzing…

The flow of thin liquid films on inclined or vertical surfaces is one of immense importance, with applications spanning many types of process industries, due to the increased mass and heat transfer brought about by the presence of waves on…

We consider a mathematical model that describes the flow of a Nematic Liquid Crystal (NLC) film placed on a flat substrate, across which a spatially-varying electric potential is applied. Due to their polar nature, NLC molecules interact…

In this paper, we present a computationally efficient method for including fluid-solid interactions into direct numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes equations. This method is found to be as powerful as our earlier formulation [J.…

We propose a novel approach to the numerical simulation of thin film flows, based on the lattice Boltzmann method. We outline the basic features of the method, show in which limits the expected thin film equations are recovered and perform…

In this paper, a pore-scale network modeling method, based on the flow continuity residual in conjunction with a Newton-Raphson non-linear iterative solving technique, is proposed and used to obtain the pressure and flow fields in a network…

Conventional mathematical models for simulating incompressible fluid flow problems are based on the Navier-Stokes equations expressed in terms of pressure and velocity. In this context, pressure-velocity coupling is a key issue, and…

In this paper we propose a strategy to approximate incompressible hydrostatic free surface Euler and Navier-Stokes models. The main advantage of the proposed models is that the water depth is a dynamical variable of the system and hence the…

In this work, we show the short-time existence of solutions of the evolution equations that represent the solid state dewetting of thin films through evaporation-condensation as a two dimensional sharp interface variational model. The…

In this paper we present a theoretical model for the dewetting of ultra-thin polymer films. Assumming that the shear-thinning properties of these films can be described by a Cross-type constitutive equation, we analyze the front morphology…

Motivated by problems arising in tear film dynamics, we present a model for the extensional flow of thin sheets of nematic liquid crystal. The rod-like molecules of these substances impart an elastic contribution to its response. We rescale…

We study the initial-boundary value problem of the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluids in a domain in $\R^3$ with compact and smooth boundary, subject to the kinematic and Navier boundary conditions. We first reformulate the…

The fluid dynamics of the classical dewetting instability in ultrathin films is a non-linear process. However, the physical manifestation of the instability in terms of characteristic length and time scales can be described by a linearized…

The high inertia of classical fluid coating processes severely limits the possibility of controlling the deposited film thickness through the entrainment velocity. We describe and characterize a new experimental device where the inertia is…

Dispersion of low-density rigid particles with complex geometries is ubiquitous in both natural and industrial environments. We show that while explicit methods for coupling the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and Newton's equations…

For the water-air system, the bulk density ratio is as high as about 1000; no model can fully tackle such a high density ratio system. In the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations, the density $\rho$ within the water-air interface is assumed to…

We consider the spreading of a thin two-dimensional droplet on a solid substrate. We use a model for viscous fluids where the evolution is governed by Darcy's Law. At the triple point where air and liquid meet the solid substrate, the…
