Presentation Transcript

  1. Dynamics and Stability of a Network of Coupled Drop Elements: Coarsening by Capillarity Henrik van Lengerich, Mike Vogel, Paul Steen • Coarsening/Scavenging of Drops • Numerical simulations • Stability • Analytic predictions • Coarsening of Jet and • other PDEs Rutland and Jameson, JFM 46 267 (1971)

  2. Probability of Winning

  3. Formulation

  4. Stability 1.) For the ‘star’ network with Hagen-Poiseuille flow: • 2.) The eigenvalues of the Hessian: • Number of sub-hemispherical drops = stable directions • Number of super-hemispherical drops less one = unstable directions 3.) For an arbitrary conduit network with and arbitrary flow rate: 4.) As the conduit network and flow type is varied the signs of the eigenvalues stay unchanged.

  5. Structure of the dynamical system The stability result along with a Lyaponov function can be used to organize the structure of the phase space. N=2 N=3 N=4

  6. Prediction of Winning

  7. Generalization/Future Work For a linear array of drops with Hagen-Poiseuille flow This is just a discretization of the PDE A similar process of discretization can be used for any arbitrary PDE • The stability of a stationary state is determined by the stability of a Jacobian • The dynamics are predicted using domains of attraction and fixed points Rutland and Jameson, JFM 46 267 (1971)

  8. The end

  9. Probability of Winning
