Activity induced isotropic-polar transition in active liquid crystals
M. G. Giordano, F. Bonelli, L. N. Carenza +2
Active fluids are intrinsically out-of-equilibrium systems due to the internal energy injection of the active constituents. We show here that a transition from a motion-less isotro…
Lamellar ordering, droplet formation and phase inversion in exotic active emulsions
Francesco Bonelli, Livio Nicola Carenza, Giuseppe Gonnella +3
We study numerically the behaviour of a mixture of a passive isotropic fluid and an active polar gel, in the presence of a surfactant favouring emulsification. Focussing on paramet…
Cavitation inception of a van der Waals fluid at a sack-wall obstacle
G. Kaehler, F. Bonelli, G. Gonnella +1
Cavitation in a liquid moving past a constraint is numerically investigated by means of a free-energy lattice Boltzmann simulation based on the van der Waals equation of state. The…
Self-induced density modulations in the free expansion of Bose-Einstein condensates
L. Salasnich, N. Manini, F. Bonelli +2
We simulate numerically the free expansion of a repulsive Bose-Einstein condensate with an initially Gaussian density profile. We find a self-similar expansion only for weak inter-…
