We study the interaction-induced migration of bubbles in shear flow and observe that bubbles suspended in elastoviscoplastic emulsions organise into chains aligned in the flow direction, similarly to particles in viscoelastic fluids. To…

This work reports an experimental characterisation of the flow properties in a homogeneous bubble swarm rising at high-Reynolds-numbers within a homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flow. Both the gas volume fraction {\alpha} and the…

Droplet evaporation has been intensively investigated in past decades owing to its emerging applications in diverse fields of science and technology. Yet the role transport mechanisms has been the subject of a heated debate, especially the…

When a horizontal resistive wire is heated up to the boiling point in a subcooled liquid bath, some vapor bubbles nucleate on its surface. Traditional nucleate boiling theory predicts that bubbles generated from active nucleate sites, grow…

This study investigates the behavior of microbubbles generated by the local heating of an ethanol/water mixture and the surrounding flow. The mixture is photothermally heated by focusing a continuous-wave laser on a FeSi$_2$ thin film.…

We experimentally investigate the effect of Reynolds number (Re) on the turbulence induced by the motion of bubbles in a quiescent Newtonian fluid at small Re. The energy spectra, $E(k)$, is determined from the decaying turbulence behind…

Buoyancy-driven bubbly flows play pivotal roles in various scenarios, such as the oxygenation and mixing in the upper ocean and the reaction kinetics in chemical and bio-reactors. This work focuses on the convective flow induced by the…

Multiphase flows are challenging systems to study, not only from a fundamental point of view, but also from a practical one due to the difficulties in visualizing phases with similar refraction indices. An additional challenge arises when…

The sedimentation of a surfactant-laden deformable viscous drop acted upon by an electric field is considered theoretically. The convection of surfactants in conjunction with the the combined effect electrohydrodynamic flow and…

We present a realization of a fast interfacial Marangoni microswimmer by a half-spherical alginate capsule at the air-water interface, which diffusively releases water-soluble spreading molecules (weak surfactants such as polyethylene…

We propose a simple active hydrodynamic model for the self-propulsion of a liquid droplet suspended in micellar solutions. The self-propulsion of the droplet occurs by spontaneous breaking of isotropic symmetry and is studied using both…

We study theoretically internal flows in a small oblate droplet suspended on the circular frame. Marangoni convection arises due to a vertical temperature gradient across the drop and is driven by the surface tension variations at the free…

This work describes an experimental investigation on the mixing induced by a swarm of high Reynolds number air bubbles rising through a nearly homogeneous and isotropic turbulent flow. The gas volume fraction $\alpha$ and the velocity…

The transport and aggregation of particles in suspensions is an important process in many physicochemical and industrial processes. In this work, we study the transport of particles in an evaporating binary droplet. Surprisingly, the…

In this study, we analyze the various arrangements that droplets can form within dispersed buoyant emulsions, which we refer to as the study of microstructure. To this end, we have developed a novel algorithm that effectively prevents…

In this work, we focus on the behavior of a single passive Brownian particle in a suspension of passive particles with short-range repulsive interactions and a larger self-diffusion coefficient. While the forces affecting the…

Chemically active colloids generate changes in the chemical composition of their surrounding solution and thereby induce flows in the ambient fluid which affect their dynamical evolution. Here we study the many-body dynamics of a monolayer…

We present a direct numerical simulation (DNS) study of buoyancy driven bubbly flows in two-dimensions. We employ volume of fluid (VOF) method to track the bubble interface. To investigate spectral properties of the flow, we derive the…

We create a highly controlled lab environment-accessible to both global and local monitoring-to analyse turbulent boiling flows and in particular their shear stress in a statistically stationary state. Namely, by precisely monitoring 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…
