Lattice Boltzmann for Binary Fluids with Suspended Colloids
A new description of the binary fluid problem via the lattice Boltzmann method is presented which highlights the use of the moments in constructing two equilibrium distribution functions. This offers a number of benefits, including better isotropy, and a more natural route to the inclusion of multiple relaxation times for the binary fluid problem. In addition, the implementation of solid colloi...
متن کاملCoarse-grained treatment of the self-assembly of colloids suspended in a nematic host phase.
The complex interplay of molecular scale effects, nonlinearities in the orientational field and long-range elastic forces makes liquid-crystal physics very challenging. A consistent way to extract information from the microscopic, molecular scale up to the meso- and macroscopic scale is still missing. Here, we develop a hybrid procedure that bridges this gap by combining extensive Monte Carlo (...
متن کاملConfinement-induced enhancement of diffusiophoretic forces on self-propellers
We study the effect of spatial confinement on the strength of propulsive diffusiophoretic forces acting on a particle that generates density gradients by exploiting the chemical free energy of its environment. Using a recently proposed simple model of a self-propelling device driven by chemical reactions taking place on some parts of its surface, we demonstrate that the force significantly incr...
متن کاملColloids: Applications and Remaining Challenges
Using of colloids and polymeric microparticles are gradually increasing. It is observed that the positive effects of particles stems in both traditional applications such as column pickings, coatings and paints to more recent technologies in diagnostics, drug delivery and optical devices are well documented. This review focuses on importance of colloids and covers their applications on three le...
متن کاملStructural correlations in diffusiophoretic colloidal mixtures with nonreciprocal interactions.
Nonreciprocal effective interaction forces can occur between mesoscopic particles in colloidal suspensions that are driven out of equilibrium. These forces violate Newton's third law actio = reactio on coarse-grained length and time scales. Here we explore the statistical mechanics of Brownian particles with nonreciprocal effective interactions. Our model system is a binary fluid mixture of s...
