Experimental and Numerical Studies on Chemically Active Flame Inhibitors
Fire hazards pose an increasingly potent threat to modern societies. Early identification and mitigation of fire hazards are crucial to avoid the loss of human lives and property. Recent research suggests that finely-atomized ...
Classical Approach to Understanding the Impact Dynamics of Hollow Droplets
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 ...
Torque transport, mean velocity profiles and turbulent statistics of a wide-gap Taylor Couette flow
Wall-bounded turbulent flows that possess finite curvature of the mean flow streamlines are known to be starkly different from their
plane counterparts. One of the primary distinguishing features of such flows is the ...
Studies on modeling the mechanics of slender elastic ribbons
Ribbons are slender structures characterized by three disparate geometric dimensions: length >> width >> thickness. Such a dimensional disparity enables ribbons to bend, buckle, twist and crease response to simple loading ...
Experimental and numerical studies on Mode-I ductile fracture behaviour of Magnesium
In recent years, weight reduction of automobiles is being achieved by using light weight metals like magnesium (Mg) in the form of cast or wrought products. However, the structural application of Mg and its alloys is limited ...
Estimation and Control of Friction in Bulk Plastic Deformation Process
Friction plays a significant role in bulk plastic deformation processes in controlling the tool life, formability of the work piece material and the quality of the finished product such as, surface finish, microstructure ...
Liquid bridge breakup and detachment dynamics investigated using dynamic domain multiphase flow simulations
Liquid bridges, formed between two solid surfaces in close proximity are encountered in a variety of engineering and daily life applications. The dynamics of a liquid bridge including its evolution that typically involves ...
Blade Flutter in a Linear Cascade: Unsteady Loads and Flow Features in Subsonic and Transonic Flows
Vibration related issues like flutter can significantly limit the performance of aircraft engines and cause unwarranted cost and time overruns. The increased demand for more powerful yet compact engines has resulted in the ...
Insights of Evaporation Dynamics of an Interacting Linear Array of Droplet System
Manipulation of an array of sessile droplets organized in an ordered structure turns out to be of immense consequence in a wide variety of applications ranging from photonics, near field imaging and inkjet printing on one ...
Statics of Shallow Bistable Arches
Bistable arches have two force-free stable equilibrium configurations. They also show multimodality by switching between their stable states in multiple deformation pathways. These two attributes and their nonlinear ...
