   Abstract = {© 2020 The Author(s) We study the problem of drug delivery
             in a catheterized artery in the presence of atherosclerosis.
             The problem is modeled in the context of a two-phase flow
             system which consists of red blood cells and blood plasma.
             The coupled differential equations for fluid (plasma) and
             particles (red cells) are solved for the relevant quantities
             in the reasonable limits. The drug delivery problem is
             modeled with a partial differential equation that is
             developed in terms of the drug concentration, blood plasma
             velocity, hematocrit value and the diffusion coefficient of
             the drug/fluid. A conservative-implicit finite difference
             scheme is develop in order to numerically solve the drug
             concentration model with an atherosclerosis region. We find
             that the evolution of the drug concentration varies in
             magnitude depending on the roles played by the convection
             and diffusion effects. For the cases where the diffusion
             coefficient is not too small, then convection effect is not
             strong enough and drug was delivered mostly in the central
             part of the blood flow region and could not reach
             effectively the atherosclerosis zone. However, for
             sufficiently small values of the diffusion coefficient, the
             convective effect dominates over the diffusion effect and
             the drug was delivered effectively over the blood flow
             region and on the atherosclerosis zone.},

   Title = {Multidimensional equilibria and their stability in
             copolymer–solvent mixtures},

   Abstract = {© 2018 Elsevier B.V. This paper discusses localized
             equilibria which arise in copolymer–solvent mixtures. A
             free boundary problem associated with the sharp-interface
             limit of a density functional model is used to identify both
             lamellar and concentric domain patterns composed of a finite
             number of layers. Stability of these morphologies is studied
             through explicit linearization of the free boundary
             evolution. For the multilayered lamellar configuration,
             transverse instability is observed for sufficiently small
             dimensionless interfacial energies. Additionally, a
             crossover between small and large wavelength instabilities
             is observed depending on whether solvent–polymer or
             monomer–monomer interfacial energy is dominant. Concentric
             domain patterns resembling multilayered micelles and
             vesicles exhibit bifurcations wherein they only exist for
             sufficiently small dimensionless interfacial energies. The
             bifurcation of large radii vesicle solutions is studied
             analytically, and a crossover from a supercritical case with
             only one solution branch to a subcritical case with two is
             observed. Linearized stability of these configurations shows
             that azimuthal perturbation may lead to instabilities as
             interfacial energy is decreased.},

   Abstract = {© 2017, Shanghai University and Springer-Verlag GmbH
             Germany. Nonlinear instability in electrically charged jets
             is studied using the governing electro-hydrodynamic
             equations describing stretching and thinning of a liquid
             jet. A jet flow system subject to both space and time
             evolving disturbances is considered. At the linear stage,
             the Rayleigh and conducting jet flow instability modes are
             uncovered. Nonlinear instability in the flow is explored via
             triad resonant waves which uncover fa- vorable operating
             modes not previously detected in the linear study of the
             problem. In particular, the jet radius is significantly
             reduced, and the electric field of the jet is properly
             oriented under the nonlinear study. It is found that taking
             into account the resonance triad modes provides a better
             mathematical description of a jet that stretches and thins
             due to tangential electric field effects. Both linear and
             nonlinear instability results in the jet flow system are
             presented and discussed.},

   Abstract = {© 2016 Elsevier Inc. This paper introduces numerical time
             discretization methods which significantly improve the
             accuracy of the convexity-splitting approach of Eyre (1998)
             [7], while retaining the same numerical cost and stability
             properties.A first order method is constructed by iteration
             of a semi-implicit method based upon decomposing the energy
             into convex and concave parts. A second order method is also
             presented based on backwards differentiation formulas.
             Several extrapolation procedures for iteration
             initialization are proposed. We show that, under broad
             circumstances, these methods have an energy decreasing
             property, leading to good numerical stability.The new
             schemes are tested using two evolution equations commonly
             used in materials science: the Cahn-Hilliard equation and
             the phase field crystal equation. We find that our methods
             can increase accuracy by many orders of magnitude in
             comparison to the original convexity-splitting algorithm. In
             addition, the optimal methods require little or no
             iteration, making their computation cost similar to the
             original algorithm.},

             microstructure by imposed electric fields.},

   Abstract = {The influence of electric fields on lamellar block copolymer
             microstructure is studied in the context of a density
             functional model and its sharp interface limit. A free
             boundary problem for domain interfaces of strongly
             segregated polymers is derived, which includes coupling of
             interface and electric field orientation. The linearized
             dynamics of lamellar configurations is computed in this
             context, leading to quantitative criteria for instability as
             a function of pattern wavelength, field magnitude, and
             orientation. Numerical simulations of the full model in two
             and three dimensions are used to study the nonlinear
             development of instabilities. In three dimensions,
             sufficiently large electric field magnitude always leads to
             instability. In two dimensions, the field has either
             stabilizing or destabilizing effects depending on the
             misorientation of the field and pattern. Even when linear
             instabilities are present, the dynamics can lead to stable
             corrugated domain interfaces which do not align with the
             electric field. Sufficiently high field strengths, on the
             other hand, produce topological rearrangement which may lead
             to alignment.},

   Abstract = {© 2014 Elsevier Ltd. This paper considers the problem of
             nonlinear instability in electrically driven viscous
             axisymmetric jets with respect to spatial and temporal
             growing disturbances in the presence of a uniform or
             non-uniform applied electric field. The mathematical
             modeling for the jets, which uses the original
             electrohydrodynamics equations (Melcher and Taylor, 1969)
             [8], is based on the nonlinear mechanics that govern the
             liquid jet due to tangential electric field effects. At the
             linear stage, we found that a particular jet of fluid could
             exhibit the Rayleigh and Conducting flow Instabilities for
             the spatial and temporal evolution of the disturbance. For
             the nonlinear regime of the problem, we studied the resonant
             instability and nonlinear wave interactions of certain modes
             that satisfy the dyad resonant condition. The nonlinear wave
             interactions in the jet provided a significant change in the
             fluid flow properties that extend notably the available
             understanding of the problem at the linear stage. It was
             found that the nonlinear resonant instability provides an
             amplifying effect on the magnitude of the disturbances which
             evolves the jet to reduce significantly its radius at a
             shorter axial location. For the case of higher viscosity
             fluid, the electric field in the jet was found to be
             increasing spatially and temporally when nonlinear wave
             interactions were taken into account during the resonant
             instability. The resulting nonlinear solutions for the jet
             thickness, jet's electric field, jet's surface charge and
             jet velocity are presented and discussed.},

   Journal = {Journal of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics},
   Volume = {50},

   Abstract = {We investigate the problem of combined spatial and temporal
             instabilities of electrically driven viscous jets with
             finite electrical conductivity in the presence of either
             constant or variable applied electric field. A mathematical
             model leads to a lengthy equation for the unknown spatial
             growth rate and temporal growth rate of the disturbances.
             This equation is solved numerically using Newton's method.
             We investigated two cases of water jets and glycerol jets.
             For water jets and in the case of either constant or
             variable applied field, we found two new modes of
             instabilities which grow simultaneously in time and space
             and lead to significant reduction in the jet radius.
             However, in the case of glycerol jets, we found two new
             modes of instabilities in the presence of constant applied
             field but only one mode of instability in the presence of
             variable applied field. For the glycerol jets, the combined
             temporal and spatial instabilities are less stronger and
             lead to an increase in the jet radius. The instabilities for
             both types of water and glycerol jets were found to be
             restricted to particular domain in their wavelength and were
             enhanced with the strength of the electric
             field.},
