The present paper is dedicated to the 2-dimensional Interacting Partially Directed Self Avoiding Walk constrained to remain in the upper-half plan and interacting with the horizontal axis. The model has been introduced in \cite{F90} to…
The object of this study is a cell model with Curie-Weiss interaction potential. We have already proved the possibility of a mathematically rigorous transition from a continuous system of interacting particles to such a model and made an…
As a result of the competition between self-propulsion and excluded volume interactions, purely repulsive self-propelled spherical particles undergo a motility-induced phase separation (MIPS). We carry out a systematic computational study,…
We consider a simple fluid confined between two parallel walls (substrates), separated by a distance L. The walls exert competing surface fields so that one wall is attractive and may be completely wet by liquid (it is solvophilic) while…
Consider a massive (inert) particle impinged from above by N Brownian particles that are instantaneously reflected upon collision with the inert particle. The velocity of the inert particle increases due to the influence of an external…
We consider single-file diffusion in an open system with two species $A,B$ of particles. At the boundaries we assume different reservoir densities which drive the system into a non-equilibrium steady state. As a model we use an…
Assuming that the phase transition between the Wigner solid and the Laughlin liquid is first-order, we compare ground-state energies to find features of the phase diagram at fixed $\nu$. Rather than use the Coulomb interaction, we calculate…
Lipid membranes, the barrier defining living cells and many of their sub-compartments, bind to a wide variety of nano- and micro-meter sized objects. In the presence of strong adhesive forces, membranes can strongly deform and wrap the…
We examine a minimal model for an active colloidal fluid in the form of self-propelled Brownian hard spheres that interact purely through excluded volume. Despite the absence of an aligning interaction, this system shows the signature…
In this paper we study the phase transition of continuum Widom-Rowlinson measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $q$ types of particles and random radii. Each particle $x_i$ of type $i$ is marked by a random radius $r_i$ distributed by a…
We computationally study suspensions of slow and fast active Brownian particles that have undergone motility induced phase separation and are at steady state. Such mixtures, of varying non-zero activity, remain largely unexplored even…
Liquid drops on textured surfaces show different dynamical behaviors depending on their wetting states. They are extremely mobile when they are supported by composite solid-liquid-air interfaces (Cassie-Baxter state) and immobile when they…
We show that sterically interacting self-propelled disks in the presence of random pinning substrates exhibit transitions among a variety of different states. In particular, from a phase separated cluster state, the disks can spread out and…
The wetting properties of solid substrates with macroscopic random roughness are considered as a function of the microscopic contact angle of the wetting liquid and its partial pressure in the surrounding gas phase. It is shown that Wenzel…
We investigate motility-induced phase separation of active Brownian particles, which are modeled as purely repulsive spheres that move due to a constant swim force with freely diffusing orientation. We develop on the basis of power…
Flow through passive porous media is typically described in terms of a linear theory relating current fluxes and driving forces, in the presence of a prescribed heterogeneous permeability. However, many porous systems such as glacial…
We report a detailed simulation and classical density functional theory study of the drying transition in a realistic model fluid at a smooth substrate. This transition (in which the contact angle $\theta\to 180^\circ$) is shown to be…
Phase separation in a low-density gas-like phase and a high-density liquid-like one is a common trait of biological and synthetic self-propelling particles' systems. The competition between motility and stochastic forces is assumed to fix…
We consider fluid wetting on a corrugated substrate using effective interfacial Hamiltonian theory and show that breaking the translational invariance along the wall can induce an 'unbending' phase transition in addition to unbinding. Both…
We study the modeling of a compressible two-phase flow in a porous medium. The governing free boundary problem is known as the Verigin problem with phase transition. We introduce a novel variational framework to construct weak solutions.…
