Surfactant reorientation under shear: dynamic surface tension and droplet deformation

Alexandra J. Hardy, Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Elsen Tjhung

Surfactants are amphiphilic molecules that are generally anisotropic rather than spherical. Their orientation is therefore governed by the interplay between shear-induced reorienta…

Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Jakob Mihatsch, Michael J. Mitchell +2

Wedge-shaped geometries in low-Reynolds-number flows are of increasing importance, for instance, in the design of microfluidic devices. The corresponding Green's functions describi…

Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Ramin Golestanian

We investigate the self-diffusiophoretic motion of a catalytically active spherical particle confined within a wedge-shaped domain. Using the Fourier-Kontorovich-Lebedev transform,…

Elastic displacements and viscous flows in wedge-shaped geometries with a straight edge: Green's functions for perpendicular forces

Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Andreas M. Menzel

Edges are abundant when elastic solids glide in guiding rails or fluids are contained in vessels. We here address induced displacements in elastic solids or small-scale flows in vi…

On force balance in Brinkman fluids under confinement

Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Andrej Vilfan

A point force acting on a Brinkman fluid in confinement is always counterbalanced by the force on the porous medium, the force on the walls and the stress at open boundaries. We di…

Rotational dynamics of a disk in a thin film of weakly nematic fluid subject to linear friction

Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Elsen Tjhung, Marc Pradas +2

Dynamics at low Reynolds numbers experiences recent revival in the fields of biophysics and active matter. While in bulk isotropic fluids it is exhaustively studied, this is less s…
