A numerical study of the motion of drops in Poiseuille flow. Part 1. Lateral migration of one drop

S Mortazavi, G Tryggvason - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2000 - cambridge.org
The cross-stream migration of a deformable drop in two-dimensional Hagen–Poiseuille flow
at finite Reynolds numbers is studied numerically. In the limit of a small Reynolds number (< …

Secondary breakup of axisymmetric liquid drops. I. Acceleration by a constant body force

J Han, G Tryggvason - Physics of fluids, 1999 - pubs.aip.org
The secondary breakup of liquid drops, accelerated by a constant body force, is examined
for small density differences between the drops and the surrounding fluid. Two cases are …

The point-set method: front-tracking without connectivity

DJ Torres, JU Brackbill - Journal of Computational Physics, 2000 - Elsevier
We describe a point-set method for extracting the normal, curvature, and surface area from
unordered data points residing on a surface. This capability relaxes front-tracking's reliance …
