We present a mesoscopic lattice model for non-ideal fluid flows with directional interactions, mimicking the effects of hydrogen bonds in water. The model supports a rich and complex structural dynamics of the orientational order parameter, and exhibits the formation of disordered domains whose… |

We use highly resolved numerical simulations to study turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection in a cell with sinusoidally rough upper and lower surfaces in two dimensions for Pr = 1 and Ra = [4 x 10(6), 3 x 10(9)]. By varying the wavelength. at a fixed amplitude, we find an optimal wavelength lambda(… |

Using computer simulations, the finite sample performance of a number of classical and Bayesian wavelet shrinkage estimators for Poisson counts is examined. For the purpose of comparison, a variety of intensity functions, background intensity levels, sample sizes, primary resolution levels, wavelet… |

Active systems, or active matter, are self-driven systems that live, or function, far from equilibrium - a paradigmatic example that we focus on here is provided by a suspension of self-motile particles. Active systems are far from equilibrium because their microscopic constituents constantly… |

We present the results of direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent flows seeded with millions of passive inertial particles. The maximum Reynolds number is Re-lambda similar to 200. We consider particles much heavier than the carrier flow in the limit when the Stokes drag force dominates… |

We present a novel application of the Lattice Boltzmann Method to the study of pulsed reactive flows in transitional Knudsen number regimes, namely 0.1 < Kn < 1.
We characterize the conversion efficiency of catalytic particles for different geometries and configurations, including single… |

In this note, we rigorously justify a singular approximation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Our approximation combines two classical approximations of the incompressible Euler equations: a standard relaxation approximation, but with a diffusive scaling, and the Euler-Poisson… |

Photocurable polymers are used ubiquitously in 3D printing, coatings, adhesives, and composite fillers. In the present work, the free radical polymerization of photocurable compounds is studied using reactive classical molecular dynamics combined with a dynamical approach of the nonequilibrium… |

This paper presents a methodology to generate maps of atmosphere's precipitable water vapor (PWV) over large areas with a length of hundreds of kilometers and a width of about 250 km, based on the use of interferometric Sentinel-1A/BC-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data with a high spatial… |
