Non-equilibrium configurations of swelling polymer brush layers induced by spreading drops of weakly volatile oil
Özlem Kap, Simon Hartmann, Harmen Hoek +4
Polymer brush layers are responsive materials that swell in contact with good solvents and their vapors. We deposit drops of an almost completely wetting volatile oil onto an oleop…
Stick-slip Dynamics in the Forced Wetting of Polymer Brushes
Daniel Greve, Simon Hartmann, Uwe Thiele
We study the static and dynamic wetting of adaptive substrates using a mesoscopic hydrodynamic model for a liquid droplet on a solid substrate covered by a polymer brush. First, we…
Nonreciprocal Cahn-Hilliard model emerges as a universal amplitude equation
Tobias Frohoff-Hülsmann, Uwe Thiele
Oscillatory behavior is ubiquitous in out-of-equilibrium systems showing spatio-temporal pattern formation. Starting from a linear large-scale oscillatory instability -- a conserve…
Nonreciprocity induces resonances in two-field Cahn-Hilliard model
Tobias Frohoff-Hülsmann, Uwe Thiele, Len M. Pismen
We consider a non-reciprocically coupled two-field Cahn-Hilliard system that has been shown to allow for oscillatory behaviour, a suppression of coarsening as well as the existence…
Sessile drop evaporation in a gap -- crossover between diffusion-limited and phase transition-limited regime
S. Hartmann, C. Diddens, M. Jalaal +1
We consider the time evolution of a sessile drop of volatile partially wetting liquid on a rigid solid substrate. Thereby, the drop evaporates under strong confinement, namely, it…
Exploring Bifurcations in Bose-Einstein Condensates via Phase Field Crystal Models
Alina B. Steinberg, Fabian Maucher, Svetlana V. Gurevich +1
To facilitate the analysis of pattern formation and of the related phase transitions in Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) we present an explicit approximate mapping from the nonloca…
