Bending instability of electrically charged liquid jets of polymer solutions in electrospinning

DH Reneker, AL Yarin, H Fong… - Journal of Applied …, 2000 - pubs.aip.org
Nanofibers of polymers were electrospun by creating an electrically charged jet of polymer
solution at a pendent droplet. After the jet flowed away from the droplet in a nearly straight …

[图书][B] The kinematics of mixing: stretching, chaos, and transport

JM Ottino - 1989 - books.google.com
In spite of its universality, mixing is poorly understood and generally speaking, mixing
problems are attacked on a case-by-case basis. This is the first book to present a unified …

Impact of drops on solid surfaces: self-similar capillary waves, and splashing as a new type of kinematic discontinuity

AL Yarin, DA Weiss - Journal of fluid mechanics, 1995 - cambridge.org
The impact of drops impinging one by one on a solid surface is studied experimentally and
theoretically. The impact process is observed by means of a charge-coupled-device camera …

Electrospinning of nanofibers from polymer solutions and melts

DH Reneker, AL Yarin, E Zussman, H Xu - Advances in applied mechanics, 2007 - Elsevier
A straightforward, cheap and unique method to produce novel fibers with a diameter in the
range of 100 nm and even less is related to electrospinning. For this goal, polymer solutions …

Relaxation and breakup of an initially extended drop in an otherwise quiescent fluid

HA Stone, LG Leal - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1989 - cambridge.org
In this paper we examine some general features of the time-dependent dynamics of drop
deformation and breakup at low Reynolds numbers. The first aspect of our study is a …

Microstructural evolution in polymer blends

CL Tucker III, P Moldenaers - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2002 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Microstructure in an immiscible polymer blend consists of the size, shape, and
orientation of the phases. Blends exhibit many interesting behaviors, including enhanced …

Shear rupturing of droplets in complex fluids

TG Mason, J Bibette - Langmuir, 1997 - ACS Publications
We have experimentally studied the shear-induced rupturing of viscous droplets in
viscoelastic complex fluids. Remarkably, a premixed emulsion of large, polydisperse …
