Molecular dynamics simulations are used to investigate the influence of molecular-scale surface roughness on the slip behavior in thin liquid films. The slip length increases almost linearly with the shear rate for atomically smooth rigid…
The interest in the description of the properties of fluids of restricted dimensionality is growing for theoretical and practical reasons. In this work, we have firstly developed an analytical expression for the Helmholtz free energy of the…
We study the thermally activated oscillations, or capillary waves, of a neutral metal cluster within the liquid drop model. These deformations correspond to a surface roughness which we characterize by a single parameter $\Delta$. We derive…
Two related approaches, one fairly recent [A. Trokhymchuk et al., J. Chem. Phys. 123, 024501 (2005)] and the other one introduced fifteen years ago [S. B. Yuste and A. Santos, Phys. Rev. A 43, 5418 (1991)], for the derivation of analytical…
We study the liquid-vapor phase diagram and the structural properties of discrete potential fluids by means of Gibbs ensemble simulations and integral equations theory. We consider three discrete fluids, namely, the square well (SW), the…
In this paper, we present a new formulation of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), which, unlike the standard SPH (SSPH), is well-behaved at the contact discontinuity. The SSPH scheme cannot handle discontinuities in density (e.g. the…
We study the dynamics of an athermal inertial run-and-tumble particle moving in a shear-thickening medium in $d=1$. The viscosity of the medium is represented by a nonlinear function $f(v)\sim\tan(v)$, while a symmetric dichotomous noise of…
We conducted direct numerical simulations (DNSs) of turbulent flow over three-dimensional sinusoidal roughness in a channel. A passive scalar is present in the flow with Prandtl number $Pr=0.7$, to study heat transfer by forced convection…
In this work, we have performed a critical review of the thermophysical properties of sulfuric acid-water mixtures. The thermophysical properties analyzed are density, viscosity, refraction index, thermal expansion coefficient, and mass…
We report new measurements of turbulent mixing of temperature fluctuations in a low temperature helium gas experiment, spanning a range of microscale Reynolds number, $R_{\lambda}$, from 100 to 650. The exponents $\xi_{n}$ of the…
In this paper we introduce the stochastic Ricci flow (SRF) in two spatial dimensions. The flow is symmetric with respect to a measure induced by Liouville Conformal Field Theory. Using the theory of Dirichlet forms, we construct a weak…
We report on measurements of self-diffusion coefficients in discrete numerical simulations of steady, homogeneous, collisional shearing flows of nearly identical, frictional, inelastic spheres. We focus on a range of relatively high solid…
The contact values $g(\sigma,\sigma')$ of the radial distribution functions of a fluid of (additive) hard spheres with a given size distribution $f(\sigma)$ are considered. A ``universality'' assumption is introduced, according to which, at…
The one-dimensional penetrable-square-well fluid is studied using both analytical tools and specialized Monte Carlo simulations. The model consists of a penetrable core characterized by a finite repulsive energy combined with a short-range…
Fluid-structure interactions are ubiquitous in nature and technology. However, the systems are often so complex that numerical simulations or ad hoc assumptions must be used to gain insight into the details of the complex interactions…
Existing numerical models of the swash zone are relatively inflexible in dealing with sediment transport due to a high dependence of the deployed numerical schemes on empirical sediment transport relations. Moreover, these models are…
Microfluidic systems are usually fabricated with soft materials that deform due to the fluid stresses. Recent experimental and theoretical studies on the steady flow in shallow deformable microchannels have shown that the flow rate is a…
We study wave turbulence in shallow water flows in numerical simulations using two different approximations: the shallow water model, and the Boussinesq model with weak dispersion. The equations for both models were solved using periodic…
We consider the touchdown of an elastic sheet as it adheres to a wall, which has a dynamics that is limited by the viscous resistance provided by the squeeze flow of the intervening liquid trapped between the two solid surfaces. The…
We study the existence and radial stability of static, spherically symmetric thin shells separating two Schwarzschild--de Sitter spacetimes with parameters $(m_\pm,\Lambda_\pm)$. Using the Israel junction formalism and a linear barotropic…
