  1. 1. Foam-formed Fiber Networks: Manufacturing, Characterization, and Numerical Modeling : With a Note on the Orientation Behavior of Rod-like Particles in Newtonian Fluids

    Författare :Majid Alimadadi; Per Gradin; Pär Jonsén; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 3D fiber network structure; foam forming; numerical modeling; compression simulation; orientation; wall-bounded flow; CFD; Jeffery orbits; LS-DYNA;

    Sammanfattning : Fiber networks are ubiquitous and are seen in both industrial materials (paper and nonwovens) and biological materials (plant cells and animal tissues). Nature intricately manipulates these network structures by varying their density, aggregation, and fiber orientation to create a variety of functionalities. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Mixing and Evaporation at the Cloud Edge and Angular Dynamics of Small Crystals in Viscous Flow

    Författare :Johan Fries; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cloud microphysics; droplet evaporation; reactive flows; Jeffery orbits; shear flow;

    Sammanfattning : How liquid water in atmospheric clouds distributes over droplets of different sizes is important for the initiation of rainfall, and for the optical properties of the atmosphere. Droplet-number densities and droplet-size distributions change rapidly at turbulent cloud edges, where mixing of cloudy and dry air causes cloud dilution and droplet evaporation. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Angular dynamics of small particles in fluids

    Författare :Jonas Einarsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fluid mechanics; Particle dynamics; Multi-phase flow;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the angular motion of small particles suspended in fluid flows. A small particle experiences a hydrodynamic torque due to the local fluid velocity, and this torque leads to rotational motion. When inertial effects are negligible the torque on an ellipsoidal particle is given by Jeffery's theory [Jeffery, G. B. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Modelling transport of non-spherical particles in laminar flow

    Författare :Elise Holmstedt; Sofie Högberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : A model has been developed that can be used to predict the transport of non-spherical particles in the nano- and micro scale range for different applications. This may be the flow in the lungs or flow taking place during composites manufacturing, but the model can be applied to many applications where the particle Stokes and Reynolds numbers are small.

  7. 5. Orientation of fibres in suspensions flowing over a solid surface

    Författare :Allan Carlsson; Daniel Söderberg; Fredrik Lundell; Staffan Toll; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid mechanics; fibre orientation; shear flow; fibre suspension; papermaking; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Sammanfattning : The orientation of fibres suspended in a viscous fluid, flowing over a solid surface, has been studied experimentally. A shear layer was generated, by letting the suspension flow down an inclined plate. LÄS MER
