We investigate the influence of insoluble surfactants on the spatio-temporal evolution of breaking waves, focusing on both regular and spilling regimes. Three-dimensional direct numerical simulations are conducted using an…

We study the effect of surfactants on the dynamics of a drop-interface coalescence using full three-dimensional direct numerical simulations. We employ a hybrid interface-tracking/level-set method, which takes into account Marangoni…

We study the effect of surfactant on the dynamics of a bubble bursting through an interface. We perform fully three-dimensional direct numerical simulations using a hybrid interface-tracking/level-set method accounting for…

We study the effect of insoluble surfactants on the wave dynamics of vertically-falling liquid films. We use three-dimensional numerical simulations and employ a hybrid interface-tracking/level-set method, taking into account Marangoni…

In this work, we study the effect of insoluble surfactants on the three-dimensional rim-driven retraction dynamics of thin water sheets in air. We employ an interface-tracking/level-set method to ensure the full coupling between the…

We study the effect of insoluble surfactants on the impact of surfactant-free droplets on surfactant-laden thin liquid films via a fully three-dimensional direct numerical simulations approach that employs a hybrid…

Surfactants are critical in natural processes and engineering, but measuring their concentrations in non-equilibrium conditions and in the presence of flow is difficult. Therefore, computational methods are a key tool for improving our…

We develop a computational model to simulate the immediate post-impact spreading behaviour of surfactant-laden drops that impact a flat and solid surface. The model is built on the InterFoam solver (OpenFOAM software), which uses the…

In this work, we investigate flow topology modifications produced by a swarm of large surfactant-laden droplets released in a turbulent channel flow. Droplets have same density and viscosity of the carrier fluid, so that only surface…

Insoluble surfactants adsorbed at liquid-liquid or gas-liquid interfaces alter interfacial tension, leading to variations in the normal stress jump and generating tangential Marangoni stresses that can dramatically affect the flow dynamics.…

Direct numerical simulations of interfacial flows with surfactant-induced complexities involving surface viscous stresses are performed within the framework of the Level Contour Reconstruction Method (LCRM); this hybrid…

Parametric oscillations of an interface separating two fluid phases create nonlinear surface waves, called Faraday waves, which organise into simple patterns, like squares and hexagons, as well as complex structures, such as double…

Interfacial tension gradients drive flow along liquid-liquid interfaces in a process known as the Marangoni effect. Such gradients can be caused by surfactants, which has been extensively studied in the literature. Less is known of its…

Interface-resolved direct numerical simulations are performed to examine the combined effects of soluble surfactant and viscoelasticity on the structure of a bubbly turbulent channel flow. The incompressible flow equations are solved fully…

Droplet impact on surfactant-laden thin liquid films is investigated experimentally with emphasis on vortex ring dynamics. Bottom- and side-view imaging reveal that increasing surfactant concentration progressively stabilize vortex rings,…

An arbitrary Lagrangian--Eulerian (ALE) finite element scheme for computations of soluble surfactant droplet impingement on a horizontal surface is presented. The numerical scheme solves the time-dependent Navier--Stokes equations for the…

In this paper we study the dynamics of a layer of incompressible viscous fluid bounded below by a rigid boundary and above by a free boundary, in the presence of a uniform gravitational field. We assume that a mass of surfactant is present…

Mass transfer of gaseous components from rising bubbles to the ambient liquid depends not only on the chemical potential difference of the transfer component but also on the interfacial free energy and composition. The latter is strongly…

We investigate a novel Marangoni-induced instability that arises exclusively in diffuse fluid interfaces, absent in classical sharp-interface models. Using a validated phase-field Navier-Stokes-Allen-Cahn framework, we linearize the…

The breakup of an interface into a cascade of droplets and their subsequent coalescence is a generic problem of central importance to a large number of industrial settings such as mixing, separations, and combustion. We study the breakup of…
