Critical transitions on route to chaos of natural convection on a heated horizontal circular surface

Yuhan Jiang, Yongling Zhao, Jan Carmeliet +2

The transition route and bifurcations of the buoyant flow developing on a heated circular horizontal surface are elaborated using direct numerical simulations and direct stability…

Transition of the thermal boundary layer and plume over an isothermal section-triangular roof: An experimental study

Haoyu Zhai, Juan F. Torres, Yongling Zhao +1

The development of thermal boundary layers and plume near a section-triangular roof under different isothermal heating conditions have been the focus of numerous numerical studies.…

Drop spreading and drifting on a spatially heterogeneous film: capturing variability with asymptotics and emulation

Feng Xu, Sam Coveney, Oliver E. Jensen

A liquid drop spreading over a thin heterogeneous precursor film (such as an inhaled droplet on the mucus-lined wall of a lung airway) will experience perturbations in shape and lo…

Trapping and displacement of liquid collars and plugs in rough-walled tubes

Feng Xu, Oliver E. Jensen

A liquid film wetting the interior of a long circular cylinder redistributes under the action of surface tension to form annular collars or occlusive plugs. These equilibrium struc…

Drop spreading with random viscosity

Feng Xu, Oliver E. Jensen

We examine theoretically the spreading of a viscous liquid drop over a thin film of uniform thickness, assuming the liquid's viscosity is regulated by the concentration of a solute…
