Various microphysical models attempt to explain the occurrence of broad droplet size distributions (DSD) in clouds through approximate representations of the stochastic droplet growth by condensation in a turbulent environment. This work…
We analyze the properties of naturally formed nano-bubbles in Lennard-Jones molecular dynamics simulations of liquid-to-vapor nucleation in the boiling and the cavitation regimes. The large computational volumes provide a realistic…
This study explores heat and turbulent modulation in three-dimensional multiphase Rayleigh-B\'enard convection using direct numerical simulations. Two immiscible fluids with identical reference density undergo systematic variations in…
We study the dispersion characteristics of slightly buoyant droplets in a turbulent jet using large eddy simulations (LES). The droplet number density fields are represented using an Eulerian approach with the dispersed phase modelled using…
Collisional growth of tiny particles is a fundamental process governing the growth of cloud droplets and the aggregation of ash particles in volcanic plumes, with direct implications for precipitation formation, cloud lifetime, and ash…
In melt-blowing processes mico- and nanofibers are produced by the extrusion of polymeric jets into a directed, turbulent high-speed airflow. Up to now the physical mechanism for the drastic jet thinning is not fully understood, since in…
Results from the state-of-the-art molecular dynamics simulations are presented for both equilibrium and nonequilibrium dynamics following vapor-liquid transition in a single component Lennard-Jones system. We have fixed the overall density…
The dynamics of the interaction of a system of two thin volatile liquid droplets resting on a soft viscoelastic solid substrate are investigated theoretically. The developed model fully considers the effect of evaporative cooling and the…
Polymer brush layers are responsive materials that swell in contact with good solvents and their vapors. We deposit drops of an almost completely wetting volatile oil onto an oleophilic polymer brush layer and follow the response of the…
A three-dimensional flamelet model considering vortex stretching with unitary Lewis number is used to simulate diluted hydrogen-oxygen diffusion flames. Non-reacting nitrogen is used as the diluent gas in the fuel stream. Unitary Lewis…

Bubble formation in electrochemical system often hinders reaction efficiency by reducing active surface area and obstructing mass transfer, yet the mechanisms governing their nanoscale nucleation dynamics and impact remains unclear. In this…
The Extended Discrete Element Method (XDEM) is an innovative numerical simulation technique that extends the dynamics of granular materials known as Discrete Element Method (DEM) by additional properties such as the thermodynamic state,…
We experimentally investigate the interaction between a pair of bubbles ascending in a stagnant viscoelastic shear-thinning fluid. In particular, we focus on the effect of bubble size, across the velocity discontinuity, on the bubble-bubble…
In marine environments, microscopic droplets of spilled oil can be transported over tens or hundreds kilometers in the water column. As this oil is biodegraded, growing bacteria on the droplets' surface can deform the oil-water interface to…
Understanding the fluid-structure interaction is crucial for an optimal design and manufacturing of soft mesoscale materials. Multi-core emulsions are a class of soft fluids assembled from cluster configurations of deformable oil-water…
The dynamics of compressible liquid-vapor flow depends sensitively on the microscale behavior at the phase boundary. We consider a sharp-interface approach, and propose a multiscale model to describe liquid-vapor flow accurately, without…
Systems comprising a turbulent channel flow overlaying a permeable bed can be found in a variety of industrial and natural applications (e.g. urban planning, fracking, submerged vegetation). One important realization of this system is at…
The mixing properties of vapor content, temperature and particle fields are of paramount importance in cloud turbulence as they pertain to essential processes, such as cloud water droplet evaporation and entrainment. Our study examines the…
Droplets bouncing on a vibrated liquid bath open ways to methods of manipulating droplets, creating double emulsion and performing pilot wave model experiments. In this work, we focus on the role of the droplet deformations in the vertical…
