This article presents a novel and flexible bubble modelling technique for multi-fluid simulations using a volume fraction representation. By combining the volume fraction data obtained from a primary multi-fluid simulation with simple and efficient secondary bubble simulation, a range of real-world bubble phenomena are captured with a high degree of physical realism, including large bubble deformation, sub-cell bubble motion, bubble stacking over the liquid surface, bubble volume change, dissolving of bubbles, etc. Without any change in the primary multi-fluid simulator, our bubble modelling approach is applicable to any multi-fluid simulator based on the volume fraction representation.

Many statistical models seek relationship between variables via subspaces of reduced dimensions. For instance, in factor models, variables are roughly distributed around a low dimensional subspace determined by the loading matrix; in mixed linear regression models, the coefficient vectors for different mixtures form a subspace that captures all regression functions; in multiple index models, the effect of covariates is summarized by the effective dimension reduction space.

The $L_p$ cosine transform on Grassmann manifolds naturally induces finite dimensional Banach norms whose unit balls are origin-symmetric convex bodies in $\rn$. Reverse isoperimetric type volume inequalities for these bodies are established, which extend results from the sphere to Grassmann manifolds.
