The discovery of two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials often provides interesting playgrounds to explore novel phenomena. One of the missing components in 2D vdW materials is the intrinsic heavy-fermion systems, which can…

Two-dimensional (2D) materials are frequently associated with the sheets which form bulk layered compounds bonded by van der Waals (vdW) forces. The anisotropy and weak interaction between the sheets have also been the main criteria in the…

Direct Numerical Simulations of the injection of a pulsed round liquid jet in a stagnant gas are performed in a series of runs of geometrically progressing resolution. The Reynolds and Weber numbers and the density ratio are sufficiently…

Liquid drops adhere to solid surfaces due to surface tension but can depin and run back along the surface due to wind or gravity forcing. This work develops a simple mechanistic model for depinning by combined gravity and…

Pristine van der Waals (vdW) interfaces between two-dimensional (2D) and other materials are core to emerging optical and electronic devices. Their direct fabrication is, however, challenged as the vdW forces are weak and cannot be tuned to…

This work presents a comprehensive three-dimensional third-medium contact framework for modeling complex contact interactions in hyperelastic solids and pneumatically actuated systems. The proposed third-medium formulation embeds a…

Sparse matter is characterized by regions with low electron density and its understanding calls for methods to accurately calculate both the van der Waals (vdW) interactions and other bonding. Here we present a first-principles density…

Entanglement between two qubits (two level atoms) mediated by surface plasmons in three-dimensional plasmonic waveguides is studied using a quantum master equation formalism. Two types of waveguides, a nanowire and a V-shaped channel cut in…

Liquid drops on textured surfaces show different dynamical behaviors depending on their wetting states. They are extremely mobile when they are supported by composite solid-liquid-air interfaces (Cassie-Baxter state) and immobile when they…

Using concepts from classical density functional theory (DFT) we investigate the freezing of a two-dimensional (2D) system of ultra-soft particles in a one-dimensional (1D) external potential; a phenomenon often called laser-induced…

Although the precise microscopic knowledge of van der Waals interactions is crucial for understanding bonding in weakly bonded layered compounds, very little quantitative information on the strength of interlayer interaction in these…

The dynamics of interacting particles in orbital magnetic fields are notoriously difficult to study, as this physics is inherently connected to electronic correlations in two-dimensional systems, for which no straightforward theoretical…

Bonding between polymeric interfaces is encountered widely in several industrial applications. Many of these bonding processes rely on time-consuming and temperature-dependent classical mechanism of polymer interdiffusion via reptation in a…

The quality of plastic parts produced through injection molding depends on many factors. Especially during the filling stage, defects such as weld lines, burrs, or insufficient filling can occur. Numerical methods need to be employed to…

Cutting-edge smart materials are transforming the domains of soft robotics, actuators, and sensors by harnessing diverse non-mechanical stimuli, such as electric and magnetic fields. Accurately modelling their physical behaviour…

Beyond the study of individual materials, their interfaces and arising functionality are crucial enablers of fundamental science and technological applications. Recently, the arena of two-dimensional (2D) materials was extended to so-called…

An efficient method is presented for solving axisymmetric, frictionless contact problems between a rigid punch and an elastically non-homogeneous, power-law graded half-space. Provided that the contact area is simply-connected profiles of…

To effectively handle flows characterized by strong backflow and multiple open boundaries within particle-based frameworks, this study introduces three enhancements to improve the consistency, independence, and accuracy of the buffer-based…

The translational motion of a solid sphere near a deformable fluid interface is studied in the low Reynolds number regime. In this problem, the fluid flow driven by the sphere is dynamically coupled the instantaneous conformation of the…

We present a numerical study to characterize nonlinear unsteady aeroelastic interactions of two-dimensional flexible wings at high angles of attack. The coupled fluid-flexible wing system is solved by a body-fitted variational aeroelastic…
