This paper proves a Serrin’s type blow-up criterion for the 3D density-dependent Navier-Stokes-Korteweg equations with vacuum. It is shown that if the density and velocity field satisfy for some and any satisfying , then the strong solutions to the density-dependent Navier-Stokes-Korteweg equations can exist globally over . Here denotes the weak space.

Two-phase fluid flows on substrates (i.e. wetting phenomena) are important in many industrial processes, such as micro-fluidics and coating flows. These flows include additional physical effects that occur near moving (three-phase) contact lines. We present a new 2-D variational (saddle-point) formulation of a Stokesian fluid with surface tension that interacts with a rigid substrate. The model is derived by an Onsager type principle using shape differential calculus (at the sharp-interface, front-tracking...

The two-phase free boundary value problem for the Navier-Stokes system is considered in a situation where the initial interface is close to a halfplane. We extract the boundary symbol which is crucial for the dynamics of the free boundary and present an analysis of this symbol. Of particular interest are its singularities and zeros which lead to refined mapping properties of the corresponding operator.

The impacts of the two-beam interference heating on the number of core-shell and embedded nanoparticles and on nanostructure coarsening are studied numerically based on the non-linear dynamical model for dewetting of the pulsed-laser irradiated, thin (< 20 nm) metallic bilayers. The model incorporates thermocapillary forces and disjoining pressures, and assumes dewetting from the optically transparent substrate atop of the reflective support layer,...

In this paper we present a theory describing the diffusion limited evaporation of sessile water droplets in presence of contact angle hysteresis. Theory describes two stages of evaporation process: (I) evaporation with a constant radius of the droplet base; and (II) evaporation with constant contact angle. During stage (I) the contact angle decreases from static advancing contact angle to static receding contact angle, during stage (II) the contact...

A small vicinity of a contact line, with well-defined (micro)scales (henceforth the “microstructure”), is studied theoretically for a system of a perfectly wetting liquid, its pure vapor and a superheated flat substrate. At one end, the microstructure terminates in a non-evaporating microfilm owing to the disjoining-pressure-induced Kelvin effect. At the other end, for motionless contact lines, it terminates in a constant film slope (apparent contact...

We discuss a numerical formulation for the cell problem related to a homogenization approach for the study of wetting on micro rough surfaces. Regularity properties of the solution are described in details and it is shown that the problem is a convex one. Stability of the solution with respect to small changes of the cell bottom surface allows for an estimate of the numerical error, at least in two dimensions. Several benchmark experiments are presented and the reliability of the numerical solution...

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena
The shape and velocity of a sliding droplet are computed by solving the Navier-Stokes equation with free interface boundary conditions. The Galerkin finite element method is implemented in a 2D computation domain discretized using an unstructured mesh with triangular elements. The mesh is refined recursively at the corners (contact points). The stationary sliding velocity is found to be strongly dependent on grid refinement, which is a consequence of the contact line singularity resolved through...

We construct interfacial solitary structures (spots) generated by a bistable chemical reaction or a non-equilibrium phase transition in a surfactant film. The structures are stabilized by Marangoni flow that prevents the spread of a state with a higher surface tension when it is dynamically favorable. In a system without surfactant mass conservation, a unique radius of a solitary spot exists within a certain range of values of the Marangoni number...

We study pressure-driven, two-layer flow in inclined channels with high density and viscosity contrasts. We use a combination of asymptotic reduction, boundary-layer theory and the Karman-Polhausen approximation to derive evolution equations that describe the interfacial dynamics. Two distinguished limits are considered: where the viscosity ratio is small with density ratios of order unity, and where both density and viscosity ratios are small. The evolution equations account for the presence of...
