A model for velocity fluctuations in sedimentation

PJ Mucha, SY Tee, DA Weitz, BI Shraiman… - Journal of fluid …, 2004 - cambridge.org
We present a model for velocity fluctuations of dilute sedimenting spheres at low Reynolds
number. The central idea is that a vertical stratification causes the fluctuations to decrease …

Direct numerical simulations of sedimenting spherical particles at non-zero Reynolds number

A Hamid, JJ Molina, R Yamamoto - RSC advances, 2014 - pubs.rsc.org
We performed direct numerical simulations, using a smoothed profile method to investigate
the inertial effects on the static and dynamic properties of a sedimenting suspension over a …

Particle velocity distributions and velocity fluctuations of non-Brownian settling particles by particle-resolved direct numerical simulation

AA Zaidi - Physical Review E, 2018 - APS
Settling dynamics of non-Brownian particles is investigated using particle-resolved direct
numerical simulations. There are two aims of this paper: first is to study the variation of …

Sedimentation of non-Brownian spheres at high volume fractions

A Hamid, JJ Molina, R Yamamoto - Soft matter, 2013 - pubs.rsc.org
We performed direct numerical simulations of non-Brownian sedimenting particles, using a
smooth profile method over a wide range of volume fractions from 0.01 to 0.5. We found that …

Direct numerical simulations of anisotropic diffusion of spherical particles in sedimentation

A Hamid, R Yamamoto - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2013 - APS
We investigated the scaling of the hydrodynamic velocity fluctuations and self-diffusion in the
sedimentation of monodispersed spherical particles via direct numerical simulations using …

Anisotropic velocity fluctuations and particle diffusion in sedimentation

A Hamid, R Yamamoto - Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 2013 - journals.jps.jp
Direct numerical simulations were performed using a smooth profile method to investigate
the steady-state sedimentation of monodisperse spherical particles in an incompressible …

Direct numerical simulations of correlated settling particles

M Shakeel, A Hamid, A Ullah, JJ Molina… - Journal of the Physical …, 2018 - journals.jps.jp
A direct numerical simulation study, using smooth profile method was performed to explore
the effects of aspect ratio (ratio of vertical to horizontal length) of simulation box on spherical …

Lack of Plasma-like Screening Mechanism in Sedimentation of a Non-Brownian Suspension

P Sznajder, B Cichocki, M Ekiel-Jeżewska - Symmetry, 2022 - mdpi.com
We investigate qualitatively a uniform non-Brownian sedimenting suspension in a stationary
state. As a base of our analysis we take the BBGKY hierarchy derived from the Liouville …

Origin of non-Gaussian velocity distributions in steady-state sedimentation

E Kuusela, JM Lahtinen, T Ala-Nissila - Europhysics Letters, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the settling dynamics of non-Brownian particles during steady-state sedimentation
under realistic conditions by computer simulations. We show that the velocity fluctuations …

[图书][B] Steady-state sedimentation of non-Brownian particles with finite Reynolds number

E Kuusela - 2005 - aaltodoc.aalto.fi
The sedimentation of non-Brownian particles has been studied extensively, both
experimentally and through computer simulations. Currently there is quite a good …
