Fluids with suspended microstructure – complex fluids – are common in micro- and biofluidics and can have fascinating dynamical behaviors. I will overview modeling and simulation studies of transport and mixing in complex fluids. These studies will...

Donaldson introduced a metric and a geometric structure on the space of volume forms on any compact Rimannian manifold. The geodesic equation is a degenerate fully nonlinear elliptic equation. Also this equation is relevant to many interesting...

Many fluid instabilities involving free surfaces are governed by interfacial forces - for instance surface tension. However, some materials have surface forces produced by active physical processes not present in the bulk fluid, such as forces due to...
