The use of implants in the trachea is increasing in respiratory diseases as an alternative to address pathological problems with airway obstruction. This article presents the design and development of a three-way cannula and its evaluation in a testb...
Infectious diseases can spread through virus-laden respiratory droplets exhaled into the air. Ventilation systems are crucial in indoor settings as they can dilute or eliminate these droplets, underscoring the importance of understanding their effica...
Understanding the rheological properties of fresh cement slurries is essential to maintain optimal pumpability, achieve dependable zonal isolation, and preserve long-term well integrity in oil and gas cementing operations and the 3D printing cement a...
Numerous dark linear recurrent features called Recurring Slope Lineae (RSL) are observed on Martian surfaces, hypothesized as footprints of high-salinity liquid flow. This paper experimentally examined this “wet hypothesis” by analyzing t...
Presented in this work is a harmonic balance (HB)-based pseudo-time code-coupling approach applied to a one-degree-of-freedom vortex-induced vibration (VIV) problem of a circular cylinder in a low-Reynolds-number laminar flow regime. Unlike physical...
Thermal energy storage plays a vital role in enhancing the efficiency of energy systems, particularly in building applications. Phase change materials (PCMs) have gained significant attention as a passive solution for energy management within buildin...
The dam break flow problem consists of the phenomena where a fluid is suddenly released and is often used as a test case for multiphase flows numerical models or to analyze the underlying physics of complex free surface flows of both Newtonian and no...
This work presents a one-dimensional (1D) model for simulating the behavior of an FCC riser reactor processing bio-oil. The FCC riser is modeled as a plug-flow reactor, where the bio-oil feed undergoes vaporization followed by catalytic cracking reac...
Smectite clay minerals are known to readily form thixotropic physical gels in aqueous media, even at low volume fractions. Although the rheological properties of these gels are closely related to the microstructure of the network, the influence of th...
Better mixing in the near-field region of jets with their surrounding fluid is of high interest for several industrial applications. Passive control that involves jet geometry modifications as compared to the traditional circular design is used in th...
