Measuring the structure factor, S(q), of a dispersion of particles by Small-Angle X-ray Scattering provides a unique method to investigate the spatial arrangement of colloidal particles. However, it is impossible to find the exact location…

In this paper we study a stationary double-diffusive natural convection problem in porous media given by a Navier-Stokes/Darcy type system, for describing the velocity and the pressure, coupled to a vector advection-diffusion equation…

Spontaneous phase separation, or demixing, is important in biological phenomena such as cell sorting. In particle-based models, an open question is whether differences in diffusivity can drive such demixing. While…

Slow dynamics in a fluid are studied in one of the most basic systems possible: polydisperse hard spheres. Monodisperse hard spheres cannot be studied as the slow down in dynamics as the density is increased is preempted by crystallisation.…

The shear misfit model for the highly viscous flow is based upon a theoretical prediction for its terminal stage in terms of irreversible Eshelby relaxations in the five-dimensional shear space. The model is shown to predict a small…

Conditions for the establishment of small density perturbations in a self-gravitating two component fluid mixture are studied using a dynamical system approach. It is shown that besides the existence of exponentially growing and decaying…

We examine the fluid phase behaviour of the binary mixture of hard superellipses using the scaled particle theory The superellipse is a general two dimensional convex object which can be tuned between circular and rectangular shapes…

Nucleation in systems with a metastable liquid-gas critical point is the prototypical example of a two-step nucleation process, in which the appearance of the critical nucleus is preceded by the formation of a liquid-like density…

We simulate the compression of a two-component Lennard-Jones liquid at a variety of constant temperatures using a molecular dynamics algorithm in an isobaric-isothermal ensemble. The viscosity of the liquid increases with pressure,…

For suspensions of permeable particles, the short-time translational and rotational self-diffusion coefficients, and collective diffusion and sedimentation coefficients are evaluated theoretically. An individual particle is modeled as a…

An important aspect of molecular fluids is the relation between orientation and translation parts of the two-particle correlations. Especially the detailed knowledge of the influence of orientation correlations is needed to explain and…

We investigate a well-known phenomenon of the appearance of the crossover points, corresponding to the intersections of the solubility isotherms of the solid compound in supercritical fluid. Opposed to the accepted understanding of the…

We study the theoretical phase behavior of an asymmetric binary mixture of hard spheres, of which the smaller component is monodisperse and the larger component is polydisperse. The interactions are modeled in terms of the second virial…

Gravity-driven convection of fluid at parameters near its thermodynamic critical point inside a porous layer heated from below (Rayleigh-Darcy convection) is studied. The fluid having the temperature slightly above the critical one is…

Pushing two fluids with different density one against the other causes the development of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability at their interface, which further evolves in a complex mixing layer. In porous media, this process is influenced by…

We use a previously introduced mapping between the continuum percolation model and the Potts fluid (a system of interacting s-states spins which are free to move in the continuum) to derive the low density expansion of the pair…

The critical phenomena associated to the liquid to solid transition of quasi-two-dimensional vibrated granular systems is studied using molecular dynamics simulations of the inelastic hard sphere model. The critical properties are…

Motivated in part by the work of Vanneste and Byatt-Smith, we study mixing and enhanced dissipation for the advection-diffusion equation with velocity field $\mathbf{u}(x,y,t)=(\sin(y-ct),0)$, a shear flow whose profile translates rigidly…

We study the wetting behaviour of a symmetrical binary fluid below the demixing temperature at a non-selective attractive wall. Although it demixes in the bulk, a sufficiently thin liquid film remains mixed. On approaching liquid/vapour…

We discuss the QCD critical point at finite density through the study of many flavor QCD, in which two light flavors and Nf massive flavors exist. Performing simulations of QCD with two flavors of improved Wilson fermions, we calculate…
