Phase-field model of long-time glasslike relaxation in binary fluid mixtures.

Lattice Boltzmann model for binary mixtures.

An a priori derivation of the lattice Boltzmann equations for binary mixtures is provided by discretizing the Boltzmann equations that govern the evolution of binary mixtures. The present model leads to a set of two-fluid hydrodynamic equations for the mixture. In existing models, employing the single-relaxation-time approximation, the viscosity and diffusion coefficients are coupled through th...

Cholesterol-induced fluid-phase immiscibility in membranes.

The fluid-phase behavior of binary mixtures of cholesterol with phosphatidylcholines is investigated using magnetic resonance methods. Phospholipid biradicals provide the electron spin resonance spectroscopic resolution of two immiscible fluid phases in the dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine-cholesterol system. Isotropic chemical shifts of the phospholipid carbonyl carbons in binary mixtures with c...

Mass - Conserved Phase Field Models for 2 Binary Fluids

The commonly used incompressible phase field models for non-reactive, binary fluids, in which the Cahn-Hilliard equation is used for the transport of phase variables, conserve the total volume of each phase as well as the material volume, but do not conserve the mass of the fluid mixture when the densities of two components are different. In this paper, we formulate the phase field theory for m...

On the theory of phase transitions in binary fluid mixtures

The microscopic approach to the description of the phase behaviour and critical phenomena in binary fluid mixtures is proposed. It is based on the method of collective variables with a reference system. The physical nature of the order parameter in a binary mixture is discussed. The basic density measure (GinsburgLandau-Wilson Hamiltonian) is obtained in the collective variable phase space whic...
