Sharp interface methods for simulation and analysis of free surface flows with singularities: Breakup and coalescence

CR Anthony, H Wee, V Garg, SS Thete… - Annual Review of …, 2023 - annualreviews.org
A common feature of many free surface flows—drop/bubble breakup or coalescence and
film/sheet rupture—is the occurrence of hydrodynamic singularities. Accurately computing …

Phase-field modeling of complex interface dynamics in drop-laden turbulence

A Roccon, F Zonta, A Soldati - Physical Review Fluids, 2023 - APS
Turbulent flows laden with large, deformable drops are ubiquitous in nature and in a wide
range of industrial processes. Prediction of the interactions between drops, which deform …
