We present a natural framework for constructing energy-stable time discretization schemes. By leveraging the Onsager principle, we demonstrate its efficacy in formulating partial differential equation models for diverse gradient flow…
A nematic liquid crystal confined to the surface of a sphere exhibits topological defects of total charge $+2$ due to the topological constraint. In equilibrium, the nematic field forms four $+1/2$ defects, located at the corners of a…
Structure-preserving numerical schemes for a nonlinear parabolic fourth-order equation, modeling the electron transport in quantum semiconductors, with periodic boundary conditions are analyzed. First, a two-step backward differentiation…
We study the asymptotic behavior of global solutions to hydrodynamical systems modeling the nematic liquid crystal flows under kinematic transports for molecules of different shapes. The coupling system consists of Navier-Stokes equations…
We derive a hydrodynamic description of metric-free active matter: starting from self-propelled particles aligning with neighbors defined by "topological" rules, not metric zones, -a situation advocated recently to be relevant for bird…
We consider numerical methods for the Poisson-Nernst-Planck-Cahn-Hilliard (PNPCH) equations with steric interactions. We propose a novel energy stable numerical scheme that respects mass conservation and positivity at the discrete level.…
(abridged) We present a detailed derivation of a simple hydrodynamic two-fluid model, which aims at the description of the phase separation of non-entangled polymer solutions, where viscoelastic effects play a role. It is directly based…
This paper investigates the global well-posedness and large-time behavior of 3D incompressible active liquid crystals under constant activity, modeled by a coupled system of forced incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for the velocity and…
We present a reduction-consistent and thermodynamically consistent formulation and an associated numerical algorithm for simulating the dynamics of an isothermal mixture consisting of $N$ ($N\geqslant 2$) immiscible incompressible fluids…
For the first time, a general two-parameter family of entropy conservative numerical fluxes for the shallow water equations is developed and investigated. These are adapted to a varying bottom topography in a well-balanced way, i.e.…
We demonstrate how to construct dynamic phase diagrams for complex fluids that undergo transitions under flow, in which the conserved composition variable and the broken-symmetry order parameter (nematic, smectic, crystalline, etc.) are…
In this paper, we design, analyze, and numerically validate positive and energy-dissipating schemes for solving the time-dependent multi-dimensional system of Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) equations, which has found much use in the modeling…
We consider a four-elastic-constant Landau-de Gennes energy characterizing nematic liquid crystal configurations described using the $Q$-tensor formalism. The energy contains a cubic term and is unbounded from below. We study dynamical…
We design an arbitrary high-order accurate nodal discontinuous Galerkin spectral element approximation for the nonlinear two dimensional shallow water equations with non-constant, possibly discontinuous, bathymetry on unstructured, possibly…
We present an isothermal fluctuating nonlinear hydrodynamic theory of crystallization in molecular liquids. A dynamic coarse-graining technique is used to derive the velocity field, a phenomenology, which allows a direct coupling between…
We present a novel combination of numerical techniques to improve the efficiency, accuracy, and robustness of multi-component compressible flow simulations. At the core of our approach is an Entropy-Stable formulation that preserves kinetic…
In this paper, we study a hydrodynamic phase-field system modeling the deformation of functionalized membranes in incompressible viscous fluids. The governing PDE system consists of the Navier-Stokes equations coupled with a convective…
In this work, a thermodynamically consistent and conservative diffuse-interface model for gas-liquid-solid multiphase flows is proposed. In this model, a novel free energy for the gas-liquid-solid multiphase flows is established according…
We investigate shear-induced crystallization in a very dense flow of mono-disperse inelastic hard spheres. We consider a steady plane Couette flow under constant pressure and neglect gravity. We assume that the granular density is greater…
In this work we analyze the stability and convergence properties of a loosely-coupled scheme, called the kinematically coupled scheme, for interaction between an incompressible viscous fluid and a thin structure. We consider a benchmark…
