An accurate adaptive solver for surface-tension-driven interfacial flows

TL;DR: The method is shown to recover exact equilibrium (to machine accuracy) between surface-tension and pressure gradient in the case of a stationary droplet, irrespective of viscosity and spatial resolution.

High Order Weighted Essentially Nonoscillatory Schemes for Convection Dominated Problems

Chi-Wang Shu
- 01 Feb 2009 - 
TL;DR: The history and basic formulation of WENO schemes are reviewed, the main ideas in using WenO schemes to solve various hyperbolic PDEs and other convection dominated problems are outlined, and a collection of applications in areas including computational fluid dynamics, computational astronomy and astrophysics, semiconductor device simulation, traffic flow models, computational biology, and some non-PDE applications are presented.

Evaluating the performance of the two-phase flow solver interFoam

TL;DR: The performance of the open source multiphase flow solver, interFoam, is evaluated using a variety of verification and validation test cases, which include verification tests for pure advection (kinematics), dynamics in the high Weber number limit and dynamics of surface tension-dominated flows.

Numerical modeling of multiphase flows in microfluidics and micro process engineering: a review of methods and applications

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of numerical methods and models for interface resolving simulations of multiphase flows in microfluidics and micro process engineering is presented in this paper, where three common approaches in the sharp interface limit, namely the volume-of-fluid method with interface reconstruction, the level set method and the front tracking method, as well as methods with finite interface thickness such as color function based methods and the phase-field method are discussed.

High-order essentially non-oscillatory schemes for Hamilton-Jacobi equations

TL;DR: In this article, central weighted essentially nonoscillatory (CWENO) schemes for Hamilton-Jacobi equations are investigated, which yield uniform high-order accuracy in smooth regions and sharply resolve discontinuities in the derivatives.

Fronts propagating with curvature-dependent speed: algorithms based on Hamilton-Jacobi formulations

Active contours without edges

TL;DR: A new model for active contours to detect objects in a given image, based on techniques of curve evolution, Mumford-Shah (1989) functional for segmentation and level sets is proposed, which can detect objects whose boundaries are not necessarily defined by the gradient.

A continuum method for modeling surface tension

TL;DR: In this paper, a force density proportional to the surface curvature of constant color is defined at each point in the transition region; this force-density is normalized in such a way that the conventional description of surface tension on an interface is recovered when the ratio of local transition-reion thickness to local curvature radius approaches zero.
