DSMC: A Statistical Mechanics Perspective
Alejandro L. Garcia
This paper presents a perspective in which Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) is viewed not in its traditional role as an algorithm for solving the Boltzmann equation but as a nu…
Steric effects in induced-charge electro-osmosis for strong electric fields
J. Galen Wang, Daniel R. Ladiges, Ishan Srivastava +4
We study the role of steric effects on the induced-charge electro-osmosis (ICEO) phenomenon using a recently developed mesoscale fluid model. A hybrid Eulerian-Lagrangian method is…
Fluctuating Hydrodynamics and the Rayleigh-Plateau Instability
Bryn Barker, John B. Bell, Alejandro L. Garcia
The Rayleigh-Plateau instability occurs when surface tension makes a fluid column become unstable to small perturbations. At nanometer scales, thermal fluctuations are comparable t…
Surface Coverage Dynamics for Reversible Dissociative Adsorption on Finite Linear Lattices
Enrique Mercado, Hyun Tae Jung, Changho Kim +3
Dissociative adsorption onto a surface introduces dynamic correlations between neighboring sites not found in non-dissociative absorption. We study surface coverage dynamics where…
Validity of path thermodynamic description of reactive systems: Microscopic simulations
F. Baras, A. L. Garcia, M. Malek Mansour
Traditional stochastic modeling of reactive systems limits the domain of applicability of the associated path thermodynamics to systems involving a single elementary reaction at th…
Staggered Scheme for the Compressible Fluctuating Hydrodynamics of Multispecies Fluid Mixtures
Ishan Srivastava, Daniel R. Ladiges, Andy J. Nonaka +2
We present a numerical formulation for the solution of non-isothermal, compressible, Navier-Stokes equations with thermal fluctuations to describe mesoscale transport phenomena in…
