The Poisson–Boltzmann (PB) equation is used to investigate effective colloid-interface interactions and the phase behavior of charge-stabilized colloidal suspensions. When a colloidal particle, immersed in an electrolyte, approaches an interface, which may be neutral (such as air) or charged (like electrodes, glass, etc.), image charge effects plus the deformation of the colloidal ion atmospher...

The atomization of turbulent liquid jets and sheets can usually be divided into two subsequent processes: the primary breakup, where the jet or sheet initially breaks up into both large and small scale structures, followed by the secondary breakup, where these structures continue to break up into ever smaller drops, forming a spray. Considering numerical grid resolutions typical for Large Eddy ...
