Wake transitions and melting dynamics of a translating sphere in warm liquid
Zhong-Han Xue, Jie Zhang
We investigate the three-dimensional melting dynamics of an initially spherical particle translating in a warmer liquid using sharp-interface simulations that fully resolve both so…

A sharp and conservative method for modeling interfacial flows with insoluble surfactants in the framework of a geometric volume-of-fluid approach
Zhong-Han Xue, Jacques Magnaudet, Jie Zhang
Insoluble surfactants adsorbed at liquid-liquid or gas-liquid interfaces alter interfacial tension, leading to variations in the normal stress jump and generating tangential Marang…
