We present a collision model for phase-resolved Direct Numerical Simulations of sediment transport that couple the fluid and particles by the Immersed Boundary Method. Typically, a contact model for these types of simulations comprises a…
The possibility of different interpretations of the stochastic term (or calculi) in the overdamped Langevin equation for the motion of a particle in an inhomogeneous medium is often referred to as the "Ito--Stratonovich dilemma," although…
Light diffusion is usually associated with thick, opaque media. Indeed, multiple scattering is necessary for the onset of the diffusive regime and such condition is generally not met in almost transparent media. Nonetheless, at long enough…
We consider the Asakura-Oosawa-Vrij model of hard sphere colloids and ideal polymer coils in contact with a planar hard wall at (colloidal) liquid-gas coexistence. Using extensive numerical density functional calculations, the liquid-gas,…
Systems with a high degree of size polydispersity are becoming standard in the computational study of deeply supercooled liquids. In this work we perform a systematic analysis of continuously polydisperse fluids as a function of the degree…
Particle simulations confined by sharp walls usually develop an oscillatory density profile. For some applications, most notably soft matter liquids, this behavior is often unrealistic and one expects a monotonic density climb instead. To…
Many-body dissipative particle dynamics is constructed to exhibit vapour-liquid coexistence, with a sharp interface, and a vapour phase of vanishingly small density. In this form, the model is an unusual example of a soft-sphere liquid with…
We study turbulent channel flow of a binary mixture of finite-size neutrally-buoyant rigid particles by means of interface-resolved direct numerical simulations. We fix the bulk Reynolds number and total solid volume fraction, $Re_b = 5600$…
The properties of liquid dispersions, such as foams or emulsions, depend strongly on the volume fraction $\phi$ of the continuous phase. Concentrating on the example of foams, we show experimentally and theoretically that $\phi$ may be…
The formation of interface from an initial sharp interface in polydisperse A/B blends is studied using the external potential dynamic method. The present model is a nonlocal coupling model as we take into account the correlation between…
For well-stirred multiphase fluid systems the mean interface area per unit volume, or "specific interface area" $S_V$, is a significant characteristic of the system state. In particular, it is important for the dynamics of systems of…
Forming macroscopic solid bodies in circumstellar discs requires local dust concentration levels significantly higher than the mean. Interactions of the dust particles with the gas must serve to augment local particle densities, and…
A new diffuse interface model has been proposed in this study for simulating binary alloy solidification under universal cooling conditions, involving both equilibrium and non-equilibrium solute partitioning. Starting from the Gibbs-Thomson…
Employing simplified models in computer simulation is on the one hand often enforced by computer time limitations but on the other hand it offers insights into the molecular properties determining a given physical phenomenon. We employ this…
We propose a framework for describing the dynamics associated with the adsorption of small molecules to liquid-vapor interfaces, using an intermediate resolution between traditional continuum theories that are bereft of molecular detail and…
This paper presents a method for modelling interfacial mass transfer in Interface Capturing simulations of two-phase flow with phase change. The model enables mechanistic prediction of the local rate of phase change at the vapour-liquid…
We present a Monte Carlo method to simulate asymmetric binary mixtures in the grand canonical ensemble. The method is used to study the colloid-polymer model of Asakura and Oosawa. We determine the phase diagram of the fluid-fluid unmixing…
Based on the Elastically Collective Nonlinear Langevin Equation theory of bulk relaxation in glass-forming liquids, and our recent ideas of how interface-nucleated modification of caging constraints are spatially transferred into the…
Many-body interactions can play a relevant role in water properties. Here we study by Monte Carlo simulations a coarse-grained model for bulk water that includes many-body interactions associated to water cooperativity. The model is…
The equilibrium silica liquid-liquid interface between the high-density liquid (HDL) phase and the low-density liquid (LDL) phase is examined using molecular-dynamics simulation. The structure, thermodynamics, and dynamics within the…
