Schrödinger-Navier-Stokes equation for capillary fluids
Luca Salasnich, Simon Böhly, Sauro Succi +1
We highlight some properties of the Schrödinger-Navier-Stokes (SNS) equation [Salasnich, Succi, and Tiribocchi (2024)] of potential relevance for microfluidics and soft matter. Spe…

Dynamical regimes of thermally convective emulsions
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
Emulsions are paramount in various interdisciplinary topical areas, yet a satisfactory understanding of their behavior in buoyancy-driven thermal flows has not been established. In…
Intermittent thermal convection in jammed emulsions
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
We study the process of thermal convection in jammed emulsions with a yield-stress rheology. We find that heat transfer occurs via an intermittent mechanism, whereby intense short-…
Localization-delocalization transition for light particles in turbulence
Ziqi Wang, Xander M de Wit, Federico Toschi
Small bubbles in fluids raise to the surface due to Archimede's force. Remarkably, in turbulent flows this process is severely hindered by the presence of vortex filaments, which a…
