Simulating Fluids in Zero Gravity
A lot of research has been conducted on achieving realistic fluid simulations: waves, flow, waterfalls, etc. This paper focuses on a less talked about aspect of fluid simulation: the behavior of liquids in zero gravity. Unlike in most other situations which are dominated by gravity, surface tension becomes the key phenomenon of the simulation. A spring-connected system of particles is used to m...
متن کاملSimulating Confined Fluids in Nanoporous Materials
If people could shrink themselves down and enter the world of nanoporous materials—solid materials like activated carbon or porous glasses that have pores of nanometer size—they would encounter exotic phenomena that were quite unexpected on the basis of everyday experience. Even thermodynamic properties thought of as constant such as the freezing point of water can be markedly depressed when fl...
متن کاملCracking Elements Method for Simulating Complex Crack Growth
The cracking elements method (CEM) is a novel numerical approach for simulating fracture of quasi-brittle materials. This method is built in the framework of conventional finite element method (FEM) based on standard Galerkin approximation, which models the cracks with disconnected cracking segments. The orientation of propagating cracks is determined by local criteria and no explicit or implic...
متن کاملA diffuse-interface method for simulating two-phase flows of complex fluids
Two-phase systems of microstructured complex fluids are an important class of engineering materials. Their flow behaviour is interesting because of the coupling among three disparate length scales: molecular or supra-molecular conformation inside each component, mesoscopic interfacial morphology and macroscopic hydrodynamics. In this paper, we propose a diffuse-interface approach to simulating ...
متن کاملSimulating van der Waals interactions in water/hydrocarbon-based complex fluids.
In systems composed of water and hydrocarbons, Van der Waals interactions are dominated by the nonretarded, classical (Keesom) part of the Lifshitz interaction; the interaction is screened by salt and extends over mesoscopic distances of the order of the size of the (micellar) constituents of complex fluids. We show that these interactions are included intrinsically in a recently introduced loc...
