Rayleigh-Bénard thermal convection in emulsions: a short review
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
Thermally driven emulsions arise in a broad range of natural and industrial contexts, yet their fundamental physical understanding remains only partially established. Emulsions exh…
Role of interfacial stabilization in the Rayleigh-Bénard convection of liquid-liquid dispersions
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
Based on mesoscale lattice Boltzmann numerical simulations, we characterize the Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convective dynamics of dispersions of liquid droplets in another liquid phase.…
Dynamical regimes of thermally convective emulsions
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
Emulsions are paramount in various interdisciplinary topical areas, yet a satisfactory understanding of their behavior in buoyancy-driven thermal flows has not been established. In…
Intermittent thermal convection in jammed emulsions
Francesca Pelusi, Andrea Scagliarini, Mauro Sbragaglia +2
We study the process of thermal convection in jammed emulsions with a yield-stress rheology. We find that heat transfer occurs via an intermittent mechanism, whereby intense short-…
The emergence of supramolecular forces from lattice kinetic models of non ideal fluids: applications to the rheology of soft glassy meterials
M. Sbragaglia, R. Benzi, M. Bernaschi S. Succi
A systematic study for a single-specie lattice Boltzmann model with frustrated-short range attractive and mid/long-range repulsive-interactions is presented. The equilibrium analys…
Rheological properties of soft-glassy flows from hydro-kinetic simulations
R. Benzi, M. Bernaschi, M. Sbragaglia +1
Based on numerical simulations of a lattice kinetic model for soft-glassy materials, we characterize the global rheology of a dense emulsion-like system, under three representative…
Phase-field model of long-time glass-like relaxation in binary fluid mixtures
R. Benzi, M. Sbragaglia, M. Bernaschi +1
We present a new phase-field model for binary fluids exhibiting typical signatures of self-glassiness, such as long-time relaxation, ageing and long-term dynamical arrest. The pres…
Herschel-Bulkley rheology from lattice kinetic theory of soft-glassy materials
R. Benzi, M. Bernaschi, M. Sbragaglia +1
We provide a clear evidence that a two species mesoscopic Lattice Boltzmann (LB) model with competing short-range attractive and mid-range repulsive interactions supports emergent…
Mesoscopic lattice Boltzmann modeling of soft-glassy systems: theory and simulations
R. Benzi, M. Sbragaglia, S. Succi +2
A multi-component lattice Boltzmann model recently introduced (R. Benzi et al. Phys. Rev. Lett 102, 026002 (2009)) to describe some dynamical behaviors of soft-flowing materials is…
