On the effect of coalescence on the rheology of emulsions
Francesco De Vita, Marco Edoardo Rosti, Sergio Caserta +1
We present a numerical study of the rheology of a two-fluid emulsion in dilute and semidilute conditions. The analysis is performed for different capillary numbers, volume fraction…
The effect of elastic walls on suspension flow
Marco Edoardo Rosti, Mehdi Niazi Ardekani, Luca Brandt
We study suspensions of rigid particles in a plane Couette flow with deformable elastic walls. We find that, in the limit of vanishing inertia, the elastic walls induce shear thinn…
Numerical study of filament suspensions at finite inertia
Arash Alizad Banaei, Marco Edoardo Rosti, Luca Brandt
We present a numerical study on the rheology of semi-dilute and concentrated filament suspensions of different bending stiffness and Reynolds number, with the immersed boundary met…
Numerical Simulations of Vorticity Banding of Emulsions in Shear Flows
Francesco De Vita, Marco Edoardo Rosti, Sergio Caserta +1
Multiphase shear flows often show banded structures that affect the global behavior of complex fluids e.g. in microdevices. Here we investigate numerically the banding of emulsions…
Droplets in homogeneous shear turbulence
Marco E. Rosti, Zhouyang Ge, Suhas S. Jain +2
We simulate the flow of two immiscible and incompressible fluids separated by an interface in a homogeneous turbulent shear flow at a shear Reynolds number equal to 15200. The visc…
The breakdown of Darcy's law in a soft porous material
Marco E. Rosti, Satyajit Pramanik, Luca Brandt +1
We perform direct numerical simulations of the flow through a model of a deformable porous medium. Our model is a two-dimensional hexagonal lattice, with defects, of soft elastic c…
