For binary mixtures with fixed concentrations of the species, various relationships between the surface tensions and the concentrations are briefly reviewed.
We discuss mixing/segregation phenomena in a schematic hard spheres lattice model for binary mixtures of granular media, by analytical evaluation, within Bethe-Peierls approximation, of Edwards' partition function. The presence of…
A model for the adsorption of a binary mixture on a one-dimensional infinite lattice with nearest neighbour cooperative effects is considered. The particles of the two species are both monomers but differ in the repulsive interaction…
We study the dependence of the surface tension of a fluid interface on the density profile of a third suspended phase. By means of an approximated model for the binary mixture and of a perturbative approach we derive close formulas for the…
The equilibrium behavior of binary mixtures can be understood through the competition of energy scales, which classifies their corresponding phase diagrams into distinct topological regimes (Types I-IV). However, in many soft-matter…
We introduce a lattice Boltzmann for simulating an immiscible binary fluid mixture. Our collision rules are derived from a macroscopic thermodynamic description of the fluid in a way motivated by the Cahn-Hilliard approach to…
A one dimensional lattice model is formulated to study tapping dynamics and the long time steady distribution in granular media. The dynamics conserves the number of particles in the system, and density changes are associated to the…
Recently Escobedo and Mansoori (AIChE J. 42(5): 1425, 1996) proposed a new expression, originally derived from statistical mechanics, for the surface tension prediction of pure fluids. In this report, the same theory is extended to the case…
Models which allow an explicit application to structurally modulated substances are reviewed within the frame of a symmetry-based approach starting from discrete lattice theory. Focus is set on models formulated in terms of local variables…
A new description of the binary fluid problem via the lattice Boltzmann method is presented which highlights the use of the moments in constructing two equilibrium distribution functions. This offers a number of benefits, including better…
In this paper, we study the boundary effect on the surface (or frame) tension of elastic membrane surface models. The frame tension generally depends only on the projected area of the boundary over which the surface spans. However, from a…
We focus here on the thermodynamic properties of adsorbates formed by two-species $A+B \to \oslash$ reactions on a one-dimensional infinite lattice with heterogeneous "catalytic" properties. In our model hard-core $A$ and $B$ particles…
Oppositely driven binary particles with repulsive interactions on the square lattice are investigated at the zero-temperature limit. Two classes of steady states related to stuck configurations and lane formations have been constructed in…
We apply lattice Boltzmann methods to study the relaxation of the velocity profile in binary fluids under shear during spinodal decomposition. In simple fluids, when a shear flow is applied on the boundaries of the system, the time required…
Magnetic fluids are colloidal suspensions of ferromagnetic particles covered with a surfactant layer, dispersed in a host liquid. The existence of cooperative phenomena in such magnetic colloidal systems, makes the determining of their…
In binary mixtures, the lifetimes of surface bubbles can be five orders of magnitude longer than those in pure liquids because of slightly different compositions of the bulk and the surfaces, leading to a thickness-dependent surface tension…
We investigate connections between the continuum and atomistic descriptions of deformable crystals, using certain interesting results from number theory. The energy of a deformed crystal is calculated in the context of a lattice model with…
A lattice Boltzmann model is introduced which simulates oil-water-surfactant mixtures. The model is based on a Ginzburg-Landau free energy with two scalar order parameters. Diffusive and hydrodynamic transport is included. Results are…
We present a theory to obtain the pressure tensor for a class of non-ideal multicomponent lattice Boltzmann models, thus extending the theory presented by Shan (X. Shan, Phys. Rev. E 77, 066702 (2008)) for single component fluids. We obtain…
We investigate the sedimentation dynamics of a binary mixture, the species of which differ by their Stokes coefficients but are identical otherwise. We analyze the sedimentation dynamics and the morphology of the final deposits using…
