A Finite Element Method for Fluctuating Navier--Stokes Equations
Dimitrios Gourzoulidis, Mirko Gallo, Soumaya Elkantassi +2
We introduce a finite-element framework for simulating thermal fluctuations in compressible fluids governed by the fluctuating Navier-Stokes equations. The method is designed to pr…

Orientable Surfactants on Thin Liquid Films: A Dynamic Density-Functional Theory Approach
Toby Kay, Serafim Kalliadasis
Thin liquid films are ubiquitous across many natural and engineering systems, including films which are laden with surface active molecules, i.e. surfactants. The presence of surfa…

Local Time Statistics and Permeable Barrier Crossing: from Poisson to Birth-Death Diffusion Equations
Toby Kay, Luca Giuggioli
Barrier crossing is a widespread phenomenon across natural and engineering systems. While an abundant cross-disciplinary literature on the topic has emerged over the years, the sto…
