Concentrated phase emulsion with multi-core morphology under shear: A numerical study
A. Tiribocchi, A. Montessori, F. Bonaccorso +2
We numerically study the dynamic behavior under a symmetric shear flow of selected examples of concentrated phase emulsions with multi-core morphology confined within a microfluidi…
A Multiresolution Mesoscale Approach for Microscale Hydrodynamics
Andrea Montessori, Adriano Tiribocchi, Marco Lauricella +2
A new class of multiscale scheme is presented for micro-hydrodynamic problems based on a dual representation of the fluid observables. The hybrid model is first tested against the…
Mesoscale modeling of near-contact interactions for complex flowing interfaces
Andrea Montessori, Marco Lauricella, Nicola Tirelli +1
We present a mesoscale kinetic model for multicomponent flows, augmented with a short range forcing term, aimed at describing the combined effect of surface tension and near-contac…
Modeling pattern formation in soft flowing crystals
Andrea Montessori, Marco Lauricella, Adriano Tiribocchi +1
We present a mesoscale representation of near-contact interactions between colliding droplets which permits to reach up to the scale of full microfluidic devices, where such drople…
Dynamic symmetry-breaking in mutually annihilating fluids with selective interfaces
Sauro Succi, Andrea Montessori, Giacomo Falcucci
The selective entrapment of mutually annihilating species within a phase-changing carrier fluid is explored by both analytical and numerical means. The model takes full account of…
Elucidating the mechanism of step-emulsification
Andrea Montessori, Marco Lauricella, Sauro Succi +2
Three-dimensional, time-dependent direct simulations of step emulsification micro-devices highlight two essential mechanisms for droplet formation: first, the onset of an adverse p…
