A significant fraction of the materials handled in the chemical, food-processing, and pharmaceutical industries are particulate in nature. Screw feeder systems are often employed in such scenarios to achieve their bulk ...

For many years, fluid flows have been modeled, starting from basic potential flow equations to full Navier-Stokes equations. The complexity of the flow increases as viscous effects, boundary layer, and flow separation are ...

Compound droplets are utilized in applications ranging from the preparation of emulsion to biological cell printing and additive manufacturing. Here, we report on the impact dynamics of a compound hollow droplet on a ...

A centrifugal compressor is a mechanical device that helps to achieve higher pressure ratios at lower mass flow rates. It is used in many applications such as turbochargers, cruise missiles, and turbojet engines where ...

Geosynthetic clay liners (GCL) are unique geocomposites that combine the beneficial properties of bentonite clay and geosynthetics in providing effective hydraulic barriers in landfill systems. In landfills, GCLs form ...

Methanol is increasingly being considered as an alternative fuel due to its potential to reduce environmental pollution and its ability to be used directly in internal combustion engines without any engine modification. ...

This work develops a new monolithic finite-element-based strategy for Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) involving a compressible fluid based on a continuous velocity-pressure formulation. The entire formula- tion is within a ...

Over the last two decades, printing of oxide semiconductors has received special attention due to its advantages such as low processing temperature, even at room temperature; high electron mobility; good transparency due ...

For most individuals, wound healing is a highly organized, straightforward process. However, there are instances where external intervention becomes necessary to support the body’s innate healing mechanism. In this thesis, ...

The end game guidance and control of an interceptor for neutralization of a hypersonic vehicle or a maneuvering aerial target is a challenging problem. This problem can be addressed in two ways: through faster autopilot ...
