In this paper, we study a hyperbolic-parabolic coupled system arising in nonlinear three-dimensional thermoelasticity. We establish the global well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of solutions. Our main result shows that, a thermoelastic…
Swimming droplets are a class of active particles whose motility changes as a function of time due to shrinkage and self-avoidance of their trail. Here we combine experiments and theory to show that our non-Markovian droplet (NMD) model,…
Although it has been established that the multi-chain slip-spring (MCSS) model can reproduce entangled polymer dynamics, the effects of model parameters have not been fully elucidated yet. In this study, we systematically investigated the…
We have developed a minimal model of a swimmer without body deformation based on force and torque dipoles which allows accurate 3D Navier-Stokes calculations. Our model can reproduce swimmer propulsion for a large range of Reynolds numbers,…
A two-phase model and its application to wavefields numerical simulation are discussed in the context of modeling of compressible fluid flows in elastic porous media. The derivation of the model is based on a theory of thermodynamically…
Using the Gaussian Ansatz for the monomer-monomer correlation functions we derive a set of the self-consistent equations for determination of the conformational state in the bead-and-spring copolymer model. The latter is based on the…
The FENE-P (Finitely-Extensible Nonlinear Elastic) dumbbell constitutive equation is widely used in simulations and stability analyses of free and wall-bounded viscoelastic shear flows due to its relative simplicity and accuracy in…
We introduce a general framework for many-body force field models, the Completely Multipolar Model (CMM), that utilizes multipolar electrical moments modulated by exponential decay of electron density as a common functional form for all…
We investigate the way in which oscillating dumb-bells, a simple microscopic model of apolar swimmers, move at low Reynold's number. In accordance with Purcell's Scallop Theorem a single dumb-bell cannot swim because its stroke is…
We introduce and investigate the wellposedness of a model describing the self-propelled motion of a small abstract swimmer in the 3-D incompressible fluid governed by the nonstationary Stokes equation, typically associated with the low…
We introduce a system of equations that models a non-isothermal magnetoviscoelastic fluid. We show that the model is thermodynamically consistent, and that the critical points of the entropy functional with prescribed energy correspond…
The mechanism of swimming at very low Reynolds number conditions is a topic of interest to biologists and engineering community. We develop a novel kinematic model of a slender flexible swimmer which locomotes in a low Reynolds number…
A recently introduced particle-based model for fluid dynamics with continuous velocities is generalized to model immiscible binary mixtures. Excluded volume interactions between the two components are modeled by stochastic multiparticle…
This work focuses on the thermodynamics of pseudo-elastic models which represent the Mullins effect. Two established models are analyzed theoretically, their thermomechanical properties are derived, and certain critical points are…
A site-site interaction model is proposed for water in two-dimension, as an alternative to the traditional Mercedes-Benz model. In MB model, water molecules are modeled as 2-dimensional Lennard-Jones disks with three hydrogen bonding arms…
A multicomponent mixture of Janus colloids with distinct catalytic coats and phoretic mobilities is a promising theoretical system to explore the collective behavior arising from nonreciprocal interactions. An active colloid produces (or…
Self-organized dynamic patterns in dense active matter are striking manifestations of non-equilibrium physics. A prominent example is the macroscopic elliptical motion observed in quasi-2D bacterial suspensions, which has lacked a physical…
We discuss the dynamics of a generalized three-sphere microswimmer in which the spheres are connected by two elastic springs. The natural length of each spring is assumed to undergo a prescribed cyclic change. We analytically obtain the…
We study the equilibrium properties of a model for a binary mixture of catalytically-reactive monomers adsorbed on a two-dimensional substrate decorated by randomly placed catalytic bonds. The interacting $A$ and $B$ monomer species undergo…
The thermodynamics and the dynamics of particle systems with infinite-range coupling display several unusual and new features with respect to systems with short-range interactions. The Hamiltonian Mean Field (HMF) model represents a…
