The kinetic energy of the fluid shell in the cosmological first-order phase transition is crucial for predicting the gravitational wave signals generated by the sound wave mechanism. We propose a model-dependent method to calculate the…
We investigate the transition from forward to inverse energy cascade in turbulent flows in thin layers, varying the functional form of the forcing and the thickness of the layer. We show that, as the forcing function becomes more…
Inertial range energy transfer in three dimensional fully developed binary fluid turbulence is studied under the assumption of statistical homogeneity. Using two point statistics, exact relations corresponding to the energy cascade are…
To date it has not been possible to prove whether or not the three-dimensional incompressible Euler equations develop singular behaviour in finite time. Some possible singular scenarios, as for instance shock-waves, are very important from…
In natural settings, intermittent dynamics are ubiquitous and often arise from a coupling between external driving and spatial heterogeneities. A well-known example is the generation of transient, turbulent puffs of fluid through a pipe…
Understanding how bubbles influence the efficiency of water electrolysis is crucial to achieve economically competitive hydrogen, generated by renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power. Water electrolysis is typically performed…
In low-temperature superfluid helium, viscosity is zero, and vorticity takes the form of discrete, vortex filaments of fixed circulation and atomic thickness. We present numerical evidence of three-dimensional inverse energy transfer from…
In this paper the amorphous/solid to disorder liquid structural phase transitions of an anomalous confined fluid is analyzed using their local fractal dimension. The model is a system of particles interacting through a two length scales…
The liquid-vapour phase transition near a weakly attractive surface is studied by simulations of the coexistence curves of water in hydrophobic pores. There is a pronounced gradual density depletion of the liquid phase near the surface…
In nature turbulent flows exist that are neither simply 2D nor 3D but boundary conditions, such as varying stratification, force them towards the one or the other. Here, we report the first evidence of the co-existence of 2D and 3D…
Fluctuation effects at first order phase transitions driven by changes of other-than-temperature factors like pressure, concentration, or external fields are investigated by perturbation theory. The results for the fluctuation contributions…
We show that phase separation can occur in a one-component liquid outside its coexistence curve (CX) with addition of a small amount of a solute. The solute concentration at the transition decreases with increasing the difference of the…
During preheating after inflation, parametric resonance rapidly generates very large fluctuations of scalar fields. In models where the inflaton field $\phi$ oscillates in a double-well potential and interacts with another scalar field $X$,…
The dynamics of bubbles nucleated during a first-order phase transition is controlled by the non-equilibrium fluctuations generated by the traveling domain wall. An accurate modelling of the out-of-equilibrium properties of the plasma is…
We report a computer-simulation study of the equilibrium phase diagram of a three-dimensional system of particles with a repulsive step potential. The phase diagram is obtained using free-energy calculations. At low temperatures, we observe…
Transition boiling is an intermediate regime occurring between nucleate boiling, where bubbles at the surface efficiently carry heat away, and film boiling, where a layer of vapor formed over the surface insulates the system reducing heat…
First order phase transitions occur discretely from one state to another, however they often display continuous behavior. To understand this nature, it is essential to probe how the emergent phase nucleates, interacts and evolves with the…
We explore by molecular dynamic simulations the thermodynamical behavior of an anomalous fluid confined inside rigid and flexible nanopores. The fluid is modeled by a two length scale potential. In the bulk this system exhibits the density…
We conduct experiments in a turbulent bubbly flow to study the nature of the transition between the classical $-$5/3 energy spectrum scaling for a single-phase turbulent flow and the $-$3 scaling for a swarm of bubbles rising in a quiescent…
The conditions in which meridional recirculations appear in swirling flows above a fixed wall are analysed. In the classical Bodew\"adt problem, where the swirl tends towards an aysmptotic value away from the wall, the well-known "tea-cup…
