Effects of chain length compatibility and molecular ratio on the two-dimensional crystallization of a binary mixed surfactant system with non-identical molecular size and its consequence on retardation to water evaporation are described via…
Droplet coalescence is ubiquitous in nature and the same time key to various technologies, such as inkjet printing. Here, we report on the coalescence of polymer droplets with different chain lengths coalescing on substrates of different…
The coalescence of droplets plays a crucial role in nature and modern technology. Various experimental and theoretical studies explored droplet dynamics in 3D and on 2D solid or liquid substrates. In this paper, we demonstrate the…
The dynamics of a thin liquid film on the underside of a curved cylindrical substrate is studied. The evolution of the liquid layer is investigated as the film thickness and the radius of curvature of the substrate are varied. A…
The phase separation mechanism of a binary liquid mixture off-critically quenched in its miscibility gap is nucleation and growth, its homogeneous phase reaching a metastable equilibrium state. The successive stages of growth of the…
We present novel numerical simulations investigating the evolution of liquid droplets into bag-like structures in turbulent airflows. The droplet bag breakup problem is of significance for many multiphase processes in scientific and…
We use well-resolved numerical simulations to study the combined effects of buoyancy, pressure-driven shear and rotation on the melt rate and morphology of a layer of pure solid overlying its liquid phase in three dimensions at a Rayleigh…
The issue of the buckling mechanism in droplets stabilized by solid particles (armored droplets) is tackled at a mesoscopic level using dissipative particle dynamics simulations. We consider spherical water droplet in a decane solvent…
We study spherically symmetric bubble growth and droplet decay in first order cosmological phase transitions, using a numerical code including both the complete hydrodynamics of the problem and a phenomenological model for the microscopic…
The evolution of wide shear zones (or shear bands) was investigated experimentally and numerically for quasistatic dry granular flows in split bottom shear cells. We compare the behavior of materials consisting of beads, irregular grains…
We perform axisymmetric numerical simulations to investigate the coalescence dynamics of a liquid drop in a deep liquid pool. This study aims to generalize the mechanisms of partial coalescence across a range of drop shapes, elucidate the…
The chemical step is an elementary pattern in chemically heterogeneous substrates, featuring two regions of different wettability separated by a sharp border. Within the framework of lubrication theory, we investigate droplet motion and the…
Biofilm growth changes many physical properties of porous media such as porosity, permeability and mass transport parameters. The growth depends on various environmental conditions, and in particular, on flow rates. Modeling the evolution…
Cross-stream migration of a deformable bubble is investigated computationally in a pressure-driven channel flow of a viscoelastic fluid via interface-resolved simulations. The flow equations are solved fully coupled with the Giesekus model…
Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the spreading of binary polymer nanodroplets in a cylindrical geometry. The polymers, described by the bead-spring model, spread on a flat surface with a surface-coupled Langevin thermostat…
Dynamics of the pendant drop coalescing with a sessile drop to form a single daughter droplet is known to form a bridge. The bridge evolution begins with a point contact between the two drops leading to a liquid neck of size comparable to…
We have investigated how the Rayleigh-Plateau instability of a filament made of a 41K-87Rb self-bound mixture may lead to an array of identical quantum droplets, with typical breaking times which are shorter than the lifetime of the…
We investigate crystal-growth kinetics in the presence of strong shear flow in the liquid, using molecular-dynamics simulations of a binary-alloy model. Close to the equilibrium melting point, shear flow always suppresses the growth of the…
In wet liquid foams, slow diffusion of gas through bubble walls changes bubble pressure, volume and wall curvature. Large bubbles grow at the expenses of smaller ones. The smaller the bubble, the faster it shrinks. As the number of bubbles…
This study systematically investigates the formation mechanisms and scaling laws governing sub-millimeter bubble-jet generation in convergent coaxial microchannels. Experimental observations reveal four distinct evolutionary stages in…
