Crack front waves: A 3D dynamic response to a local perturbation of tensile and shear cracks

Jean-François Molinari, Fabian Barras, Damien Spielmann, Fatima-Ezzahra Fekak

Crack front waves are long-lived perturbations propagating along the crack front. They are triggered by heterogeneities on the crack plane, as for instance tough asperities, which disturb the crack front shape. Crack front waves are thought to leave a trac ...

Comparative study between Cubic and Ellipsoidal Fokker-Planck kinetic models

Mohammadhossein Gorji

Motivated by improving the performance of particle-based Monte-Carlo simulations in the transitional regime, Fokker–Planck kinetic models have been devised and studied as approximations of the Boltzmann collision operator. By generalizing the linear drift ...

Measurements of ion velocity and wave propagation in a hollow cathode plume

The mechanism responsible for the production of energetic ions in the plume of hollow cathodes for electric propulsion is still an open issue. These ions are of concern to cathode and thruster lifetime, particularly for cathodes operating at high (>20 A) d ...

Two-fluid plasma model for radial Langmuir probes as a converging nozzle with sonic choked flow, and sonic passage to supersonic flow

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Philippe Frédérique Bruno Guittienne

Using the Lambert function, Guittienne et al. [Phys. Plasmas 25, 093519 (2018)] derived two-fluid solutions for radial Langmuir probes in collisionless and isothermal plasma. In this Brief Communication, we point out the close analogy with classical compre ...

The microfluidic nebulator: production of submicrometer sized airborne drops

Esther Amstad

Many powders employed in the food and pharmaceutical industries are produced through spray drying because it is a cost efficient process that offers control over the particle size. However, most commercially available spray-driers cannot produce drops with ...

Wave propagation in periodic buckled beams. Part I: Analytical models and numerical simulations

Alessandro Spadoni, Florian Paul Robert Maurin

Periodic buckled beams possess a geometrically nonlinear, load-deformation relationship and intrinsic length scales such that stable, nonlinear waves are possible. Modeling buckled beams as a chain of masses and nonlinear springs which account for transver ...

Impact of rotating and fixed nozzles on vortex breakdown in compressible swirling jet flows

François Gallaire, Leonhard Kleiser

Vortex breakdown of swirling, round jet flows is investigated in the compressible, subsonic regime by means of Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS). This is achieved by solving the compressible Navier-Stokes equations on a cylindrical grid using high-order sp ...

Quantifying the Bullwhip Effect Using Two-Echelon Data: A Cross-Industry Empirical Investigation

Ralf Seifert, Olov Isaksson

The bullwhip effect denotes the phenomenon whereby demand variability is amplified from a downstream site (buyer) to an upstream site (supplier) in the supply chain. This paper contributes to the literature that empirically investigates the bullwhip effect ...

NANOPARTICLES Production of amorphous nanoparticles by supersonic spray-drying with a microfluidic nebulator

Esther Amstad

Amorphous nanoparticles (a-NPs) have physicochemical properties distinctly different from those of the corresponding bulk crystals; for example, their solubility is much higher. However, many materials have a high propensity to crystallize and are difficul ...

Evolution of the Aerodynamic Stability of an Oscillating Annular Compressor Cascade with Inlet Reverse Flow Condition Variations

Peter Ott, Virginie Anne Chenaux

While the advancement of computing hardware now enables accurate predictions of flutter and forced response at normal flow conditions during the compressor design phase, aeroelastic computations at off-design or reverse flow conditions remain a challenging ...
