Fokker-Planck-Poisson kinetics: Multi-phase flow beyond equilibrium

Mohsen Sadr

Multi-phase phenomena remain at the heart of many challenging fluid dynamics problems. Molecular fluxes at the interface determine the fate of neighboring phases, yet their closure far from the continuum needs to be modeled. Along the hierarchy of kinetic ...

Gaussian Process Regression for Maximum Entropy Distribution

Mohsen Sadr

Maximum-Entropy Distributions offer an attractive family of probability densities suitable for moment closure problems. Yet finding the Lagrange multipliers which parametrize these distributions, turns out to be a computational bottleneck for practical clo ...

Quantum kinetic energy and isotope fractionation in aqueous ionic solutions

Michele Ceriotti, Lu Wang

At room temperature, the quantum contribution to the kinetic energy of a water molecule exceeds the classical contribution by an order of magnitude. The quantum kinetic energy (QKE) of a water molecule is modulated by its local chemical environment and lea ...

Kinetic-MHD stability of virtually collisionless plasmas

Samuel Lanthaler

The stability of pressure driven modes such as the 1/1 internal kink is known to depend sensitively on a multitude of physical effects such as toroidal rotation, kinetic effects due to thermal and suprathermal particle species and finite Larmor radius effe ...

Kinetic model basis of ozone/light-based advanced oxidation processes: a pseudoempirical approach

Eva Maria Rodriguez Franco

Most works on AOP technologies aimed at removing contaminants from water have focused on the influence of experimental variables on the overall removal rate of specific target contaminants. Few studies have been devoted to proposing detailed kinetic models ...

Exciton-Carrier Dynamics in 2D Perovskites

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Etienne Christophe Socie, Marine Eva Fedora Bouduban, Andrés Burgos Caminal

2D perovskites has become a major topic in the field of perovskite optoelectronics. Here, we aim to unravel the ultrafast dynamics governing the evolution of charge carriers and excitons. We use a combination of ultrabroadband time-resolved THz spectroscop ...

Mean kinetic energy distribution in finite-size wind farms: A function of turbines' arrangement

Varun Sharma, Marc Calaf Bracons, Roberto Torres Sánchez

In this work the redistribution and recovery of mean kinetic energy in a realistic, finite size wind farm is studied for neutral atmospheric boundary layer conditions. Five different wind farm configurations, with different wind turbine arrangements, are c ...
