Biological membranes are self-assembled complex fluid interfaces that host proteins, molecular motors, and other macromolecules essential for cellular function. These …
Surfactant-like impurities are omnipresent in multiphase emulsions and may substantially affect the motion of small droplets by altering their interfacial properties. Usually these …
A Marangoni surfer is an object embedded in a gas–liquid interface, propelled by gradients in surface tension. We derive an analytical theorem for the lower bound on the viscous …
We present a numerical model for the simulation of complex planar interfaces at which moving solid objects can be immersed, reproducing a wide variety of experimental …
This manuscript quantifies the hydrodynamic drag of a spherical droplet translating in unsteady Stokes flow when the droplet has a thin, complex membrane. All forces (eg, Stokes …
We present a numerical model for the simulation of complex planar interfaces at which moving solid objects can be immersed, reproducing a wide variety of experimental …
Biological membranes are made of phospholipids and host numerous surface active components. They are ubiquitous in nature and exhibit a non-trivial rheology, where the …
In this chapter we investigate the flow of viscous interfaces laden with insoluble surface active material, using numerical methods to elucidate the interplay between Marangoni …
