We present results of a simulation study of inelastic hard-disks vibrated in a vertical container. An Event-Driven Molecular Dynamics method is developed for studying the onset of convection. Varying the relevant parameters (inelasticity,…
The dynamic properties of fluid, including density, surface tension, diffusivity and viscosity, are temperature-dependent and can significantly influence the flow dynamics of mesoscopic non-isothermal systems. To capture the correct…
The present paper studies the effects of thermal radiation and mass diffusion on MHD flow over a vertical plate that applies time dependent shear to the fluid. This study is meant to provide framework for improved thermal system where…
The dynamics of thin volatile droplets comprising of binary mixtures deposited on a heated substrate are investigated. Using lubrication theory, we develop a novel one-sided model to predict the spreading and retraction of an evaporating…
This work combines the principles of the heat spreader method and imaging capability of the thermoreflectance measurements to measure the in-plane thermal conductivity of thin-films without the requirement of film suspension or multiple…
Turbulent superstructures in horizontally extended three-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection flows are investigated in controlled laboratory experiments in water at Prandtl number $Pr = 7$. A Rayleigh-B\'enard cell with square…
The heat transfer characteristics of thin film flow over a hot sphere resulting from a cold vertical jet of liquid falling onto the surface has been investigated. The underlying physical features have been illustrated by numerical solutions…
We apply a previously developed asymptotic model (J. Fluid. Mech. 915, A133 (2021)) to study instabilities of free surface films of nanometric thickness on thermally conductive substrates in two and three spatial dimensions. While the…
The presence of dilute hot cavities in the intracluster medium (ICM) at the cores of clusters of galaxies changes the relation between gas temperature and its X-ray emission properties. Using the hydrostatic equations of a porous medium we…
The aggregation properties of heavy inertial particles in the elastic turbulence regime of an Oldroyd-B fluid with periodic Kolmogorov mean flow are investigated by means of extensive numerical simulations in two dimensions. Both the small…
In this work, a new algorithm is proposed to compute single particle (infinite dilution) thermodiffusion using Non-Equilibrium Molecular Dynamics simulations through the estimation of the thermophoretic force that applies on a solute…
The critical separation of clusters, corresponding to the maximum density of clusters, affects growth characteristics during physical vapor deposition (PVD). In particular, this separation can affect surface smoothness in growing…
We examine theoretically the spreading of a viscous liquid drop over a thin film of uniform thickness, assuming the liquid's viscosity is regulated by the concentration of a solute that is carried passively by the spreading flow. The solute…
We examine the evaporation-induced coalescence of two droplets undergoing freezing by conducting numerical simulations employing the lubrication approximation. When two sessile drops undergo freezing in close vicinity over a substrate, they…
We have predicted theoretically and detected in laboratory experiments a new type of particle clustering (tangling clustering of inertial particles) in a stably stratified turbulence with imposed mean vertical temperature gradient. In this…
Evaporating suspensions of colloidal particles lead to the formation of a variety of patterns, ranging from a left-over ring of a dried coffee drop to uniformly distributed solid pigments left behind wet paint. To characterize the…
Nanostrucured Europium oxide and hydroxide films were obtained by pulsed Nd:Yag (532 nm) laser ablation of an Europium metallic target, in the presence of a 1 mbar Helium buffer atmosphere. Both the produced film and the ambient plasma were…
We use molecular simulation to study the structural and dynamic properties of glassy nanoclusters formed both through the direct condensation of the vapor below the glass transition temperature, without the presence of a substrate, and…
Marangoni instabilities in binary mixtures are different from those in pure liquids. In contrast to a large amount of experimental work on Marangoni convection in pure liquids, such experiments in binary mixtures are not available in the…
We study the dependence of the heat transfer between two semi-infinite solids on the dielectric properties of the bodies. We show that the heat transfer at short separation between the solids may increase by many order of magnitude when the…
