Competing routes to spontaneous flow in confined active nematics
Rahil N. Valani, Vedad Dzanic, Sumesh P. Thampi +1
Active nematics can spontaneously develop flow beyond a critical activity in confined geometries. We show analytically that the onset of flow is governed by two competing instabili…
Connecting the Hydrodynamics of Polymeric Fluids and Active Nematics
Vedad Dzanic, Sumesh P. Thampi, Julia M. Yeomans +1
We establish a correspondence between the continuum descriptions of polymer solutions and active nematics, two seemingly disparate but well-studied complex fluids. Through a mappin…
Lattice Boltzmann methods for simulating non-Newtonian fluids: A comprehensive review
Vedad Dzanic, Qiuxiang Huang, Christopher S. From +1
Non-Newtonian fluids encompass a large family of fluids with additional nonlinear material properties, contributing to non-trivial flow behaviour that cannot be captured through a…
Jamming of Elastoviscoplastic fluids in Elastic Turbulence
Christopher S. From, Vedad Dzanic, Vahid Niasar +1
Elastoviscoplastic (EVP) fluid flows are driven by a non-trivial interplay between the elastic, viscous, and plastic properties, which under certain conditions can transition the o…
Conserving elastic turbulence numerically using artificial diffusivity
Vedad Dzanic, Christopher S. From, Emilie Sauret
To simulate elastic turbulence, where viscoelasticity dominates, numerical solvers introduce an artificial stress diffusivity term to handle the steep polymer stress gradients that…
