Fluids 22, 104102 (2010)]. One equation describes the location of the free surface and the second one the evolution of the mean concentration. This lubrication model was investigated previously in linearized form. The study is now extended to the fully nonlinear case of thin liquid films of a binary mixture (in one and two horizontal spatial dimensions) with and without heat transport. For an initially flat and motionless film heated from below, we analyze the component separation induced by the Soret effect. Nonlinear simulations show that the Soret effect can cause a multitude of interesting behaviors, such as oscillatory patterns and solitonlike structures (localized traveling drops or holes). A stronger component separation induced by stronger Soret effects favors faster-moving localized structures. For isothermal systems, we study the fusion and the mixing of two thin liquid films of different but perfectly miscible liquids. Marangoni-driven forces can cause delayed coalescence, ripple formation, and fingering patterns at the borderline between the two liquid layers. A systematic analysis for ripple pattern formation and finger instabilities at different diffusion constants shows that these phenomena appear more pronounced for lower diffusion in the system.}, language = {en} } @misc{BorciaBorciaBestehorn, author = {Borcia, Rodica and Borcia, Ion-Dan and Bestehorn, Michael}, title = {Can vibrations control drop motion?}, series = {Langmuir}, volume = {30}, journal = {Langmuir}, number = {47}, issn = {1520-5827}, doi = {10.1021/la503415r}, pages = {14113 -- 14117}, abstract = {We discuss a mechanism for controlled motion of drops with applications for microfluidics and microgravity. The mechanism is the following: a solid plate supporting a liquid droplet is simultaneously subject to lateral and vertical harmonic oscillations. In this way the symmetry of the back-and-forth droplet movement along the substrate under inertial effects is broken and thus will induce a net driven motion of the drop. We study the dependency of the traveled distance on the oscillation parameters (forcing amplitude, frequency, and phase shift between the two perpendicular oscillations) via phase field simulations. The internal flow structure inside the droplet is also investigated. We make predictions on resonance frequencies for drops on a substrate with a varying wettability.}, language = {en} } @misc{BorciaBorciaHelbigetal., author = {Borcia, Rodica and Borcia, Ion-Dan and Helbig, Markus and Meier, Martin and Egbers, Christoph and Bestehorn, Michael}, title = {Dancing drops over vibrating substrates}, series = {The European Physical Journal Special Topics}, volume = {226}, journal = {The European Physical Journal Special Topics}, number = {6}, issn = {1951-6355}, doi = {10.1140/epjst/e2016-60202-6}, pages = {1297 -- 1306}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BorciaBorciaBestehornetal., author = {Borcia, Ion-Dan and Borcia, Rodica and Bestehorn, Michael and Xu, Wenchao and Harlander, Uwe}, title = {Surface waves generated by libration in a circular channel}, series = {The 12th European Fluid Mechanics Conference, 9 September 2018 - 13 September 2018, Vienna, Austria}, booktitle = {The 12th European Fluid Mechanics Conference, 9 September 2018 - 13 September 2018, Vienna, Austria}, pages = {1}, language = {en} }
