Continuum model for extraction and retention in porous media
André F. V. Matias, Daniel F. Valente-Matias, Nuno R. Neng +4
Several natural and industrial processes involve the extraction or retention of a solute by a fluid invading a network of channels. Examples include aquifer contamination, chemical…
Flow through time-evolving porous media: swelling and erosion
André F. V. Matias, Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, José S. Andrade +1
The flow through a porous medium strongly depends on the boundary conditions, very often assumed to be static. Here, we consider changes in the medium due to swelling and erosion a…
Entropy Production and the Pressure-Volume Curve of the Lung
Cláudio L. N. Oliveira, Ascânio D. Araújo, Jason H. T. Bates +2
We investigate analytically the production of entropy during a breathing cycle in healthy and diseased lungs. First, we calculate entropy production in healthy lungs by applying th…
Enhanced flow of core-softened fluids through nanotubes
J. R. Bordin, J. S. Soares, A. Diehl +1
We investigate through non-equilibrium molecular dynamic simulations the flow of core-softened fluids inside nanotubes. Our results reveal a anomalous increase of the overall mass…
Geometrical and transport properties of sequential adsorption clusters
E. B. Araújo, A. A. Moreira, H. J. Herrmann +2
We investigate transport properties of percolating clusters generated by irreversible cooperative sequential adsorption (CSA) on square lattices with Arrhenius rates given by ki= q…
Analytical results for long time behavior in anomalous diffusion
R. M. S. Ferreira, M. V. S. Santos, C. C. Donato +2
We investigate through a Generalized Langevin formalism the phenomenon of anomalous diffusion for asymptotic times, and we generalized the concept of the diffusion exponent. A meth…
