In stationary nonequilibrium states coupling between hydrodynamic modes causes thermal fluctuations to become long ranged inducing nonequilibrium Casimir pressures. Here we consider nonequilibrium Casimir pressures induced in liquids by a velocity gradient. Specifically, we have obtained explicit expressions for the magnitude of the shear-induced pressure enhancements in a liquid layer between two horizontal plates that complete and correct results previously presented in the literature. In contrast to nonequilibrium Casimir pressures induced by a temperature or concentration gradient, we find that in shear nonequilibrium contributions from short-range fluctuations are no longer negligible. In addition, it is noted that currently available computer simulations of model fluids in shear observe effects from molecular correlations at nanoscales that have a different physical origin and do not probe shear-induced pressures resulting from coupling of long-wavelength hydrodynamic modes. Even more importantly, we find that in actual experimental conditions, shear-induced pressure enhancements are caused by viscous heating and not by thermal velocity fluctuations. Hence, isothermal computer simulations are irrelevant for the interpretation of experimental shear-induced pressure enhancements.

In this article we derive expressions for Casimir-like pressures induced by nonequilibrium concentration fluctuations in liquid mixtures. The results are then applied to liquid mixtures in which the concentration gradient results from a temperature g
radient through the Soret effect. A comparison is made between the pressures induced by nonequilibrium concentration fluctuations in liquid mixtures and those induced by nonequilibrium temperature fluctuations in one-component fluids. Some suggestions for experimental verification procedures are also presented.
Water-immersed gold nanoparticles irradiated by a laser can trigger the nucleation of plasmonic bubbles after a delay time of a few microseconds [Wang et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 122, 9253,(2018)]. Here we systematically investigated the light
-vapor conversion efficiency, {eta}, of these plasmonic bubbles as a function of the ambient pressure. The efficiency of the formation of these initial-phase and mainly water-vapor containing bubbles, which is defined as the ratio of the energy that is required to form the vapor bubbles and the total energy dumped in the gold nanoparticles before nucleation of the bubble by the laser, can be as high as 25%. The amount of vaporized water first scales linearly with the total laser energy dumped in the gold nanoparticles before nucleation, but for larger energies the amount of vaporized water levels off. The efficiency {eta} decreases with increasing ambient pressure. The experimental observations can be quantitatively understood within a theoretical framework based on the thermal diffusion equation and the thermal dynamics of the phase transition.
Hydrodynamic interactions as modeled by Multi-Particle Collision Dynamics can dramatically influence the dynamics of fully flexible, ring-shaped polymers in ways not known for any other polymer architecture or topology. We show that steady shear lead
s to an inflation scenario exclusive to ring polymers, which depends not only on Weissenberg number but also on contour length of the ring. By analyzing velocity fields of the solvent around the polymer, we show the existence of a hydrodynamic pocket which allows the polymer to self-stabilize at a certain alignment angle to the flow axis. This self-induced stabilization is accompanied by transitioning of the ring to a non-Brownian particle and a cessation of tumbling. The ring swells significantly in the vorticity direction, and the horseshoe regions on the stretched and swollen ring are effectively locked in place relative to the rings center-of-mass. The observed effect is exclusive to ring polymers and stems from an interplay between hydrodynamic interactions and topology. Furthermore, knots tied onto such rings can serve as additional stabilization anchors. Under strong shear, the knotted section is pulled tight and remains well-localized while tank-treading from one horseshoe region to the opposite one in sudden bursts. We find knotted polymers of high contour length behave very similarly to unknotted rings of the same contour length, but small knotted rings feature a host of different configurations. We propose a filtering technique for rings and chains based on our observations and suggest that strong shear could be used to tighten knots on rings.
In stationary nonequilibrium states a coupling between hydrodynamic modes causes thermal fluctuations to become long ranged inducing nonequilibrium Casimir forces or pressures. Here we consider nonequilibrium Casimir pressures induced in liquids by a
velocity gradient. Specifically, we have obtained explicit expressions for the magnitude of the shear-induced pressure enhancement in a liquid layer between two horizontal plates that complete and correct results previously presented in the literature. In contrast to nonequiibrium Casimir pressures induced by a temperature gradient, kinetic theory shows that nonequilibrium contributions from short-range fluctuations are no longer negligible. In addition, it is noted that computer simulations of model fluids in shear observe effects from molecular correlations at nanoscales that have a different physical origin. The idea that such computer simulations probe shear-induced pressures resulting from coupling of long-wavelength hydrodynamic modes is erroneous.
In net-neutral systems correlations between charge fluctuations generate strong attractive thermal Casimir forces and engineering these forces to optimize nanodevice performance is an important challenge. We show how the normal and lateral thermal Ca
simir forces between two plates containing Brownian charges can be modulated by decorrelating the system through the application of an electric field, which generates a nonequilibrium steady state with a constant current in one or both plates, reducing the ensuing fluctuation-generated normal force while at the same time generating a lateral drag force. This hypothesis is confirmed by detailed numerical simulations as well as an analytical approach based on stochastic density functional theory.
