We study the orientational and translational dynamics of spherical microswimmers trapped
at fluid interfaces in terms of the force dipole and source dipole components of their flow …

As computer hardware and numerical algorithms are quickly developing at a phenomenal
rate, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is playing a more important role in the investigation …

Liquid–particle interactions at the micro-scale are quite different from the corresponding
macro-scale interactions due to the substantial role of capillary forces. Herein, we explore …

Anisotropic particles are often encountered in different fields of soft matter and complex
fluids. In this work, we present an implementation of the coupled hydrodynamics of solid …

The introduction of neutrally wetting colloidal particles into coarsening binary fluids is known
to arrest the dynamics of the phase separation, as the colloids tend to be captured by the …

Fluid–solid coupling widely exists in some natural phenomena and industrial applications.
However, it is still an important challenge to correctly capture the transient changes of …

Liquid crystals (LC) are highly sensitive to the external field. If any external (electric or
magnetic) field is applied to the LC domain beyond a critical strength, the reorientation of the …

Living organisms such as bacteria and algae often form biofilms at air–liquid and/or liquid–
liquid interfaces. Therefore, it is important to understand the hydrodynamic interaction …

In addition to complex deformation, high-speed nanoparticles in gas are also accompanied
by significant size and interfacial effects. In this work, we simulate the transportation …

Interfacially localizing particles in co-continuous polymer blends requires a complex
interplay between the properties of polymers, such as interfacial tension between them, Γ⁠ …
