Data-Driven Equation Discovery for Nonlinear Liquid Film Flows
Sebastian T. Dooley, Albert P. Bartók, James E. Sprittles +1
Over the past decade data-driven equation discovery emerged as a powerful alternative to first principles-based methodologies traditionally used in mathematical modelling cycles. T…
Mean First Passage Times and Eyring-Kramers formula for Fluctuating Hydrodynamics
Jingbang Liu, James E. Sprittles, Tobias Grafke
Thermally activated phenomena in physics and chemistry, such as conformational changes in biomolecules, liquid film rupture, or ferromagnetic field reversal, are often associated w…
Early Stages of Drop Coalescence
Antoine Deblais, Kaili Xie, Peter Lewin-Jones +5
Despite the large body of research on coalescence, firm agreement between experiment, theory, and computation has not been established for the very first moments following the init…
Thermal capillary waves on bounded nanoscale thin films
Jingbang Liu, Chengxi Zhao, Duncan A. Lockerby +1
The effect of confining walls on the fluctuation of a nanoscale thin film's free surface is studied using stochastic thin-film equations (STFEs). Two canonical boundary conditions…
Effect of ambient gas on cavity formation for sphere impacts on liquids
Hollis Williams, James Sprittles, Juan C. Padrino +1
Formation of a splash crown and a cavity following the impact of a sphere on a body of liquid is a classical problem. In the related problem of a droplet splashing on a flat surfac…
Modeling Leidenfrost levitation of soft elastic solids
Jack Binysh, Indrajit Chakraborty, Mykyta V. Chubynsky +4
The elastic Leidenfrost effect occurs when a vaporizable soft solid is lowered onto a hot surface. Evaporative flow couples to elastic deformation, giving spontaneous bouncing or s…
