We study the dynamics of dilute, slightly negatively buoyant, millimetre-size spherical
particles fully suspended in a smooth-wall open channel flow. The Reynolds number is …

A combination of time-resolved tomographic particle image velocimetry, refractive index
matching technique and machine vision algorithms was used to measure the translational …

Surface sampling for trace explosives residues is a critical step in the security screening in
which microparticles are collected for subsequent chemical analysis. The current surface …

The paper presents a comparison of the fuel oil (FO) consumption and carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions of a container ship's 8000 twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) during oceanographic …

The rotation can significantly influence the impact behavior of fine particles. By performing
collision experiments with marked particles, the rotation depended particle-wall or particle …

This paper extends the work in Tee et al.(Intl J. Multiphase Flow, vol. 133, 2020, 103462) to
investigate the effect of turbulent fluid motions on the translation and rotation of lifting and …

In natural gravel-bed rivers, fine sediment deposition contributes to the bed morphology and
entrapment of plant seeds often leads to the evolution of vegetated areas. Therefore, it is …

To reveal the physical mechanisms of particle transport in the pneumatic and hydraulic
transports, this study experimentally investigated the dynamics of a free-falling finite-size …

Fluid flows that transport rigid particles are ubiquitous in Nature and industrial processes
where they exhibit a rich set of fascinating and complex dynamics. Developing a thorough …

Turbulent, particle-laden flows are ubiquitous in nature and industry. Particles in many of
these flows have finite size and inertia, which cause them to interact with the fluid turbulence …
