The hydrodynamics of a liquid-vapour interface in contact with an heterogeneous surface is largely impacted by the presence of defects at the smaller scales. Such defects introduce morphological disturbances on the contact line and ultimately determine the force exerted on the wedge of liquid in contact with the surface. From the mathematical point of view, defects introduce perturbation modes, whose space-time evolution is governed by the interfacial hydrodynamic equations of the contact line. In this paper we derive the response function of the contact line to such generic perturbations. The contact line response may be used to design simplified 1+1 dimensional models accounting for the complexity of interfacial flows coupled to nanoscale defects, yet offering a more tractable mathematical framework to include thermal fluctuations and explore thermally activated contact line motion through a disordered energy landscape.
Common modal decomposition techniques for flowfield analysis, data-driven modeling and flow control, such as proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) are usually performed in an Eulerian (fixed) frame of reference wi
A hybrid parallel approach for fully resolved simulations of particle-laden flows in sediment transport is proposed. To overcome the challenges of load imbalance in the traditional domain decomposition method when encountering highly uneven distribut
We develop a one-dimensional model for the unsteady fluid--structure interaction (FSI) between a soft-walled microchannel and viscous fluid flow within it. A beam equation, which accounts for both transverse bending rigidity and nonlinear axial tensi
We model the advective Marangoni spreading of insoluble surfactant at the free surface of a viscous fluid that is confined within a two-dimensional rectangular cavity. Interfacial deflections are assumed small, with contact lines pinned to the walls
We present numerical simulations of three-dimensional thermal convective flows in a cubic cell at high Rayleigh number using thermal lattice Boltzmann (LB) method. The thermal LB model is based on double distribution function approach, which consists
