Dynamics of a droplet in shear flow by smoothed particle hydrodynamics
The behavior of a droplet under shear flow in a confined channel is studied numerically using a multi-phase smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. With an extensive range of Reynolds number, capillary number, wall confinement, and density/viscosity ratio between the droplet and the matrix flu...
