The prey-predator motion of the active droplets

Yibo Chen, Kai Leong Chong, Roberto Verziccoa +1

We present a generic solution for the relative motion of two diffusiophoretic prey-predator particles of arbitrary chemical activity Ai and radius Ri, where i = 1;2 refers to the p…

Vortex Dynamics in Rotating Rayleigh-Bénard Convection

Shan-Shan Ding, Guang-Yu Ding, Kai Leong Chong +3

We investigate the spatial distribution and dynamics of the vortices in rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a reduced Rayleigh-number range . Under sl…

Flow structure transition in thermal vibrational convection

Xili Guo, Jianzhao Wu, Bofu Wang +2

This study investigates the effect of vibration on the flow structure transitions in thermal vibrational convection (TVC) systems, which occur when a fluid layer with a temperature…

Human body heat shapes the pattern of indoor disease transmission

Chao-Ben Zhao, Jian-Zhao Wu, Bo-Fu Wang +3

Exhaled droplet and aerosol-mediated transmission of respiratory diseases, including SARS-CoV-2, is exacerbated in poorly ventilated environments where body heat-driven airflow pre…

Buoyancy-driven attraction of active droplets

Yibo Chen, Kai Leong Chong, Haoran Liu +2

Active oil droplets in a liquid are believed to repel due to the Marangoni effect, while buoyancy effects caused by the density difference between the droplets, diffusing product,…

Unifying constitutive law of vibroconvective turbulence in microgravity

Ze-Lin Huang, Jian-Zhao Wu, Xi-Li Guo +4

The emergence of unified constitutive law is a hallmark of convective turbulence, i.e., with in the classical and in the ultimate regime, wher…
