Behavior of confined granular beds under cyclic thermal loading
Pavel S. Iliev, Elena Giacomazzi, Falk K. Wittel +3
We investigate the mechanical behavior of a confined granular packing of irregular polyhedral particles under repeated heating and cooling cycles by means of numerical simulations…
Landau levels in wrinkled and rippled graphene sheets
Kyriakos Flouris, Miller Mendoza, Hans J. Herrmann
We study the discrete energy spectrum of curved graphene sheets in the presence of a magnetic field. The shifting of the Landau levels is determined for complex and realistic geome…
Clogging at Pore Scale and Pressure Induced Erosion
Robin Jäger, Miller Mendoza, Hans J. Herrmann
Introducing a model to study deposition and erosion of single particles at microscopic scale, we investigate the clogging and erosive processes in a pore. The particle diameter, co…
Numerical evidence of electron hydrodynamic whirlpools in graphene samples
A. Gabbana, M. Mendoza, S. Succi +1
We present an extension of recent relativistic Lattice Boltzmann methods based on Gaussian quadratures for the study of fluids in (2+1) dimensions. The new method is applied to the…
Shifted Landau levels in curved graphene sheets
Jens-Daniel Debus, Miller Mendoza, Hans Jürgen Herrmann
We study the Landau levels in curved graphene sheets by measuring the discrete energy spectrum in the presence of a magnetic field. We observe that in rippled graphene sheets, the…
The Mechanism behind Erosive Bursts in Porous Media
Robin Jäger, Miller Mendoza, Hans J. Herrmann
Erosion and deposition during flow through porous media can lead to large erosive bursts that manifest as jumps in permeability and pressure loss. Here we reveal that the cause of…

Sergio Solorzano, Miller Mendoza, Sauro Succi +1
We present a numerical scheme to solve the Wigner equation, based on a lattice discretization of momentum space. The moments of the Wigner function are recovered exactly, up to the…
Kelvin-Helmholtz instability of the Dirac fluid of charge carriers on graphene
Rodrigo C. V. Coelho, Miller Mendoza, Mauro M. Doria +1
We provide numerical evidence that a Kelvin-Helmholtz instability occurs in the Dirac fluid of electrons in graphene and can be detected in current experiments. This instability ap…
Lattice Boltzmann model for the simulation of the wave equation in curvilinear coordinates
A. M. Velasco, J. D. Muñoz, M. Mendoza
Since its origins, lattice-Boltzmann methods have been restricted to rectangular coordinates, a fact which jeopardises the applications to problems with cylindrical or spherical sy…
Kinetic approach to relativistic dissipation
A. Gabbana, M. Mendoza, S. Succi +1
Despite a long record of intense efforts, the basic mechanisms by which dissipation emerges from the microscopic dynamics of a relativistic fluid still elude a complete understandi…

Nicola Offeddu, Miller Mendoza
We study magnetic reconnection events in a turbulent plasma within the two-fluid theory. By identifying the diffusive regions, we measure the reconnection rates as function of the…

A. Gabbana, M. Mendoza, S. Succi +1
We present a systematic derivation of relativistic lattice kinetic equations for finite-mass particles, reaching close to the zero-mass ultra-relativistic regime treated in the pre…

Ilario Giordanelli, Miller Mendoza, Hans Herrmann
We introduce a different perspective describing electron-phonon interactions in graphene based on curved space hydrodynamics. Interactions of phonons with charge carriers increase…

Nicola Offeddu, Miller Mendoza
We study the Hall effect in diluted plasmas within the two-fluids theory. Composed by two distinct species with opposite charge, such as electrons and ions in fully ionised hydroge…
Targeting Eigenstates by "Simulated Measurements" using a Decoherence based Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation
Oliver Furtmaier, Miller Mendoza
Inspired by the idea of mimicking the measurement on a quantum system through a decoherence process to target specific eigenstates based on Born's law, i.e. the hiearchy of probabi…
