▪ Abstract Microstructure in an immiscible polymer blend consists of the size, shape, and
orientation of the phases. Blends exhibit many interesting behaviors, including enhanced …

We review the flow of emulsion drops, focusing on recent work involving complex interfaces,
which may include the presence of surfactants, particles, surface-active polymers, or solid …

A simple phenomenological model for the deformation of a droplet immersed in a fluid
subjected to a flow field with a uniform, but otherwise arbitrary, velocity gradient is …

The deformation and breakup of a drop in an immiscible equiviscous liquid undergoing
unbounded shear flow has been extensively investigated in the literature, starting from the …

A new three-dimensional boundary integral algorithm is presented that is capable of
simulating the process of drop breakup in viscous flows. The surface discretization is fully …

The flow generated by the breaking of free-surface waves in a periodic domain is simulated
numerically with a gas–liquid Navier–Stokes solver. The solver relies on the volume-of-fluid …

We report a study on the deformation and breakup of drops in an impulsively started shear
flow under Stokes flow conditions using boundary-integral simulations and video …

We present measurements of shape and orientation of air bubbles in a viscous Newtonian
fluid deformed by simple shear. The apparatus is a variation of the “parallel band” device …

Linear polymers with the same monomer units and different molecular weights form miscible
blends considered to be single polymers, but the situation changes if one is hyperbranched …

The behaviour of a single droplet in an immiscible external fluid, submitted to shear flow is
investigated using numerical simulations. The surface of the droplet is modelled by a …
