The motion of a gas-liquid interface along a solid wall is influenced by the capillary forces resulting from the interface's shape and its interaction with the solid, where it forms a dynamic contact angle. Capillary models play a…
Particles added to a fluid interface can be used as a surface stabilizer in the food, oil and cosmetic industries. As an alternative to rigid particles, it is promising to consider highly deformable particles that can adapt their…
We consider a classical (capillary) model for a one-phase liquid in equilibrium. The liquid (e.g. water) is subject to a volume constraint, it does not mix with the surrounding vapour (e.g. air), it may come into contact with solid supports…
This work demonstrates a computational framework for simulating vaporizing, liquid-gas flows. It is developed for the general vaporization problem which solves the vaporization rate based as from the local thermodynamic equilibrium of the…
Liquid-gas phase coexistence in a boundary-driven diffusive system is studied by analyzing fluctuating hydrodynamics of a density field defined on a one-dimensional lattice with a space interval $\Lambda$. When an interface width $\ell$ is…
One of the long standing challenges in molecular simulation is the description of interfaces. On the molecular length scale, finite size effects significantly influence the properties of the interface such as its interfacial tension, which…
We consider an open, bounded, simply connected (Lipschitz) domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which contains a closed polyhedral surface or polygonal contour, referred to as the interface. From this interface, forces are exerted in the normal…
We reconcile two scaling laws that have been proposed in the literature for the slip length associated with a moving contact line in diffuse interface models, by demonstrating each to apply in a different regime of the ratio of the…
We investigate interfacial fluid dynamics and heat transfer at nanoscales using an improved diffuse interface approach for liquid-vapor interfaces in non-equilibrium. Conventional Navier-Stokes-Korteweg (NSK) formulations often fail to…
The planar surface tension of coexisting liquid and vapor phases of a fluid of Lennard-Jones atoms is studied as a function of the range of the potential using both Monte Carlo simulations and Density Functional Theory. The interaction…
We analyze a diffuse interface model for multi-phase flows of $N$ incompressible, viscous Newtonian fluids with different densities. In the case of a bounded and sufficiently smooth domain existence of weak solutions in two and three space…
In this work we define a mean-field crossover generated by the Maxwell construction as the dividing interface for the vapor-liquid interface area. A highly accurate density-profile equation is thus derived, which is physically favorable and…
Liquid-liquid wetting failure is investigated in a two-dimensional Couette system with two immiscible fluids of arbitrary viscosity. The problem is solved exactly using a sharp interface treatment of hydrodynamics (lubrication theory) as a…
Several model fluids in contact with planar, spherical, and cylindrical walls are investigated for small number densities within density functional theory. The dependence of the solid-fluid interfacial tension on the curvature of spherical…
We consider two-layers of immiscible liquids confined between an upper and a lower rigid plate. The dynamics of the free liquid-liquid interface is described for arbitrary amplitudes by a single evolution equation derived from the basic…
The purpose of this paper is to derive anisotropic mean curvature flow as the limit of the anisotropic Allen-Cahn equation. We rely on distributional solution concepts for both the diffuse and sharp interface models, and prove convergence…
We propose a new method to study motions of mixtures in fluid interfaces. We extend the equations of equilibrium in interfaces and the results associated with travelling waves for van der Waals like fluids. Maxwell rule is extended to…
Two dimensional flows on fixed smooth surfaces have been studied in the point of view of vorticity dynamics. Firstly, the related deformation theory including kinematics and kinetics is developed. Secondly, some primary relations in…
A novel volume of fluid model (VoF) called explicit volume diffusion (EVD) is developed for the simulation of interfacial flows, including those with turbulence and primary spray atomisation. The EVD model is derived by volume averaging the…
The kinetics of interfaces in alloy solidification pose a classic free boundary problem. This paper introduces an approach that amalgamates the distinctive characteristics of sharp and diffuse interface models. The motion of the diffuse…
