Phase-field modeling droplet dynamics with soluble surfactants [PDF]
, 2010 Using lattice Boltzmann approach, a phase-field model is proposed for simulating droplet motion with soluble surfactants. The model can recover the Langmuir and Frumkin adsorption isotherms in equilibrium.

Impact of high- and low-vorticity turbulence on cloud–environment mixing and cloud microphysics processes [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021 Turbulent mixing of dry air affects the evolution of the cloud droplet size spectrum via various mechanisms. In a turbulent cloud, high- and low-vorticity regions coexist, and inertial clustering of cloud droplets can occur in low-vorticity regions.
