In this paper, we present some mathematical results on the Doi-Edwards model describing the dynamics of flexible polymers in melts and concentrated solutions. This model, developed in the late 1970s, has been used and tested extensively in…

Using Onsager variational principle, we study the dynamic coupling between the stress and the composition in polymer solution. In the original derivation of the two-fluid model [Doi and Onuki, J. Phys. II France {\bf 2}, 1631 (1992)], the…

This paper deals with the convergence of the Doi-Navier-Stokes model of liquid crystals to the Ericksen-Leslie model in the limit of the Deborah number tending to zero. While the literature has investigated this problem by means of the…

We give new results of the phase transition of dilute colloidal solutions of rod-like molecules in dimension $D \geq 3$. For the low concentration of particles in a carrier fluid, we prove that the isotropic phase is the unique solution to…

Polymer chains in colloid-polymer mixtures can be coarse-grained by replacing them with single soft particles interacting via effective polymer-polymer and polymer-colloid pair potentials. Here we describe in detail how Ornstein-Zernike…

In this paper, we introduce a new approach to solving the porous medium equation using a moving mesh finite element method that leverages the Onsager variational principle as an approximation tool. Both the continuous and discrete problems…

In this paper, we consider an inhomogeneous Doi model which was introduced by W. E and P. Zhang [Meth. Appl. of Anal., 13 (2006), pp. 181 - 198]. We extend their model, which couples a Smoluchowski equation to a Navier-Stokes type equation,…

We demonstrate how an iterative method for potential inversion from distribution functions developed for simple liquid systems can be generalized to polymer systems. It uses the differences in the potentials of mean force between the…

We propose a new coarse-grained model for the description of liquid-vapor phase separation of colloid-polymer mixtures. The hard-sphere repulsion between colloids and between colloids and polymers, which is used in the well-known…

In this paper, we investigate the pointwise space-time behavior of two-phase fluid model derived by Choi \cite{Choi} [SIAM J. Math. Anal., 48(2016), pp. 3090-3122], which is the compressible damped Euler equations coupled with compressible…

A constructive numerical approximation of the two-dimensional unsteady stochastic Navier-Stokes equations of an incompressible fluid is proposed via a pseudo-compressibility technique involving a parameter $\epsilon$. Space and time are…

The quasi--equilibrium approximation is employed as a systematic tool for solving the problem of deriving constitutive equations from kinetic models of liquid--crystalline polymers. It is demonstrated how kinetic models of…

Moment equations offer a compelling alternative to the kinetic description of plasmas, gases, and liquids. Their simulation requires fewer degrees of freedom than phase space models, yet it can still incorporate kinetic effects to a certain…

We show that equilibrium monomer and centre-of-mass concentration profiles of lattice polymers in a gravitational field, computed by Monte-Carlo simulations, provide an accurate and efficient road to the osmotic equation-of-state of polymer…

We consider particle systems described by moments of a phase-space density and propose a realizability-preserving numerical method to evolve a spectral two-moment model for particles interacting with a background fluid moving with…

A novel algorithm for the direct numerical simulation of the variable-density, low-Mach Navier-Stokes equations extending the method of Kim, Moin, and Moser (1987) for incompressible flow is presented here. A Fourier representation is…

Starting from microscopic $N$ particle systems, we study the derivation of Doi type models for suspensions of non-spherical particles in Stokes flows. While Doi models accurately describe the effective evolution of the spatial particle…

A recently proposed method for computer simulations in the isothermal-isobaric (NPT) ensemble, based on Langevin-type equations of motion for the particle coordinates and the ``piston'' degree of freedom, is re-derived by straightforward…

We consider a class of one dimensional compressible systems with degenerate diffusion coefficients. We establish the fact that the solutions remain smooth as long as the diffusion coefficients do not vanish, and give local and global…

A stochastic field theory approach is applied to a coarse-grained polymer model that will enable studies of polymer behavior under non-equilibrium conditions. This article is focused on the validation of the new model in comparison to…
