The viscosities of the ionic liqs. [bmim][PF6] and [bmim][TF2N] (bmim = 1-methyl-3-butylimidazolium, TF2N = bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide) have been detd. under CO2 pressure at 298 K. The viscosity decreases from 381 to 23 cP for [bmim][PF6] without CO ...
Experimental results are presented of the mean flow and turbulence characteristics in the near field of a plane wall jet issuing from a nozzle onto flat and concave walls consisting of fixed sand beds. This is a flow configuration of interest for sediment ...
The flow of two immiscible fluids was investigated in rectangular glass microchannels with equivalent diameters of 269 and 400μm. Deionised water, dyed toluene and hexane were selected as probe fluids. Flow patterns were obtained for Y- and T-junction ...
This research focus on the influence of bank inclination and roughness on the near-bank flow patterns which is relevant for bank protection, bank erosion and design of stable river configuration. Foregoing studies have been carried out mostly in rectangula ...
The objective of this review is to examine how the concept of plasticity is used in geophysical fluid dynamics. Rapid mass movements such as snow avalanches or debris flows involve slurries of solid particles (ice, boulder, clay, etc.) within an interstiti ...
Controlling the static and dynamic properties of sports equipment has since long been of great concern in the sports engineering industry. More recently there has been interest in better understanding and improving the interplay between such properties and ...
The asphalt rubber blend properties are strongly related to its base components properties. The base bitumen composition is considered as a key factor influencing the final rheological properties of asphalt rubber binder. This paper describes results from ...
In the turbomachines field, friction losses are intensively studied due to their important influence in the overall efficiency of the machine. The parameter helping in quantifying these friction losses is the wall shear-stress. Its role is essential for th ...
The research work reported in the present dissertation is aimed at the analysis of complex physical phenomena involving instabilities and nonlinearities occurring in fluids through state-of-the-art numerical modeling. Solutions of intricate fluid physics p ...
Interstitial fluid flow has been shown to affect the organization and behavior of cells in 3D environments in vivo and in vitro, yet the forces driving such responses are not clear. Due to the complex architecture of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the ...
