<h3>Electrolyte Droplets <br>
Rolf Ryham, Rice University </h3>

Abstract:  I will present briefly the equations of electrolyte fluids and elaborate on some of their features which are interesting in the existence theory. Then I will describe a way of incorporating a phase field as a way of constraining the variables to subregions of the fluid domain. This will require us to more carefully investigate the energetic derivation of the electrolyte equations. I will verify the utility of the phase field coupling theoretically and with some simulations.
