Spontaneous Emergence of Solitary Waves in Active Flow Networks with Elastic Elements
Rodrigo Fernández-Quevedo GarcÃa, Gonçalo Cruz Antunes, Jens Harting +6
Flow networks are fundamental for understanding systems such as animal and plant vasculature or power distribution grids. These networks can encode, transmit, and transform informa…
Modelling of the dewetting of ultra-thin liquid films on chemically patterned substrates: linear spectrum and deposition patterns
Tilman Richter, Paolo Malgaretti, Jens Harting
Liquid films of nanometric thickness are prone to spinodal dewetting driven by disjoining pressure, meaning that a non-wetting liquid film of homogeneous thickness in the range of…
Transport of electrolytes across nanochannels: the role of slip
F. Carusela, J. Harting, P. Malgaretti
We characterize the electrokinetic flow due to the transport of electrolytes embedded in nanochannels of varying cross-section with inhomogeneous slip on their walls, modeled as an…
Modeling of thin liquid films with arbitrary many layers
Tilman Richter, Paolo Malgaretti, Jens Harting
We propose the generalization of the thin film equation (TFE) to arbitrarily many immiscible liquid layers. Then, we provide different pathways for deriving the hydrodynamic pressu…
