Direct control of the small-scale energy balance in 2D fluid dynamics
Jason Frank, Benedict Leimkuhler, Keith Myerscough
We explore the direct modification of the pseudo-spectral truncation of 2D, incompressible fluid dynamics to maintain a prescribed kinetic energy spectrum. The method provides a me…
A generalised-Lagrangian-mean model of the interactions between near-inertial waves and mean flow
Jin-Han Xie, Jacques Vanneste
Wind forcing of the ocean generates a spectrum of inertia-gravity waves that is sharply peaked near the local inertial (or Coriolis) frequency. The corresponding near-inertial wave…
Fluid structure in the immediate vicinity of an equilibrium three-phase contact line and assessment of disjoining pressure models using density functional theory
Andreas Nold, David N. Sibley, Benjamin D. Goddard +1
We examine the nanoscale behavior of an equilibrium three-phase contact line in the presence of long-ranged intermolecular forces by employing a statistical mechanics of fluids app…
Dynamics of a spherical particle in an acoustic field: a multiscale approach
Jin-Han Xie, Jacques Vanneste
A rigid spherical particle in an acoustic wave field oscillates at the wave period but has also a mean motion on a longer time scale. The dynamics of this mean motion is crucial fo…
Front propagation in cellular flows for fast reaction and small diffusivity
Alexandra Tzella, Jacques Vanneste
We investigate the influence of fluid flows on the propagation of chemical fronts arising in FKPP type models. We develop an asymptotic theory for the front speed in a cellular flo…
Boundary streaming with Navier boundary condition
Jin-Han Xie, Jacques Vanneste
In microfluidic applications involving high-frequency acoustic waves over a solid boundary, the Stokes boundary-layer thickness is so small that some non-negligible slip may oc…
