DiaryPlay: AI-Assisted Authoring of Interactive Vignettes for Everyday Storytelling
An interactive vignette is a popular and immersive visual storytelling approach that invites viewers to role-play a character and influences the narrative in an interactive environment. However, it has not been widely used by everyday storytellers yet due to authoring complexity, which conflicts with the immediacy of everyday storytelling. We introduce DiaryPlay, an AI-assisted authoring system for interactive vignette creation in everyday storytelling. It takes a natural language story as inpu…

High-throughput controlled droplets generation through a flow-focusing microchannel in shear-thinning fluids
This study presents a three-dimensional transient computational fluid dynamics simulation of droplet generation in a flow-focusing microfluidic device using the Coupled Level Set and Volume of Fluid method for interface capturing. We systematically investigated the effects of shear-thinning non-Newtonian fluids, specifically carboxymethyl cellulose solutions, on the generation of mineral oil droplets. The rheological properties of carboxymethyl cellulose were analyzed at concentrations of 0.1%,…

Suppression of capillary instability in a confined quantum liquid filament
Quantum Bose-Bose mixtures with strong attraction can form self-bound, liquid-like droplets stabilized by quantum fluctuations. Despite equilibrium densities much lower than those of classical liquids, these droplets exhibit finite surface tension and liquid-like behaviors. Recent experiments have demonstrated Rayleigh-Plateau instability in elongated droplets confined in an optical waveguide. Here we consider the case of an infinite filament and extend the theoretical description to include tr…

Weekend #Plankton Factoid 🦠🦐
When most people think about algal blooms, they envision bright green water. However, blooms can also be dark red, invoking the colour of blood. A number of groups can generate red pigment blooms including flagellates like red-tide species Karenia brevis and Heterosigma akashiwo, Alexandrium spp. (Shellfish poisoning), the green algae Botryococcus braunii turning…

Numerical analysis of controlled droplet formation surrounded by shear-thinning fluid in a co-flow microfluidic device
In this work, we used a coupled level set and volume of fluid (CLSVOF) computational method for studying the generation of microdroplets in a two dimensional circular co-flow microfluidic device. The fundamental understanding of shear thinning behavior on controlled droplet formation in a microchannel is systematically investigated. Droplet generation and dynamics are controlled by altering the operating conditions and fluid properties, such as CMC solution concentration, both fluids flow rates…

Electrohydrodynamics of a pair of leaky dielectric droplets on the solid substrate: A lattice Boltzmann study
In this work, the electrohydrodynamics of a pair of leaky dielectric droplets on a solid substrate is investigated by the phase-field-based lattice Boltzmann method. Different from a pair of suspended droplets that may coalesce or separate, two leaky dielectric droplets on the substrate exhibit more complex modes due to the effects of wettability and electric force. The results show that when a horizontal electric field is applied, five different modes with electrostatic attractive force are ob…
