The hike of hydraulic fracturing in North America and beyond leads to significantly enhanced
hydrocarbon production especially in low-permeability geological formations. Proppant …

The third edition of Bubbles, Drops, and Particles in Non-Newtonian Fluids provides
comprehensive coverage of the scientific foundations and the latest advances in particle …

Particulate flow has a wide range of industrial applications and is frequently modeled with
coupled CFD–DEM approaches. Herein, we first identified a simulation gap between the …

Modeling and simulation of atomization is challenging due to the existence of a wide range
of length scales. This multiscale nature of atomization introduces a fundamental challenge to …

The settling behavior of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) in full-scale reactors is different from
the settling of normal activated sludge. Current activated sludge models lack the features to …

Continuous processing of food products is being increasingly advocated as a substitute for
traditional heat sterilization in containers. Although the technology has been successfully …

The physics of atomization process involve many spatial scales, generating a wide variety of
liquid inclusions of different sizes with large density and viscosity ratios between liquid and …

Empirical correlations and experimental works relating the drag coefficient (CD) of spheres
to the Reynolds number (Re) and Re to the Archimedes number (Ar) were reviewed with a …

We report results from an experimental study of cavity formation during the impact of
superhydrophobic spheres onto water. Using a simple splash-guard mechanism, we block …

As an effective method for chloride removal from saline wastewater, Friedel's salt (FS)
precipitation generates high concentration of precipitate requiring efficient solid-liquid …
