Liquid is represented as complicated system of disclinations according to defect description of liquids and glasses. The expressions for the linear disclination field of an arbitrary form and energy of inter-disclination interaction are…
We study model protein solutions and colloidal suspensions in the temperature range whereupon the nature of the system changes from a homogeneous fluid to a "cluster fluid". It is commonly assumed - as deduced by the behavior of the…
Fluidization of solid particles by an ascending fluid is frequent in industry because of the high rates of mass and heat transfers achieved. However, in some cases blockages occur and hinder the correct functioning of the fluidized bed. In…
Micro fluidized beds are basically suspensions of solid particles by an ascending fluid in a mm-scale tube, with applications in chemical and pharmaceutical processes involving powders. Although in many applications beds are polydisperse,…
In the presence of a non-adsorbing polymer, monodisperse rod-like colloids assemble into one-rod-length thick liquid-like monolayers, called colloidal membranes. The density of the rods within a colloidal membrane is determined by a balance…
The theoretical investigations on electrorheological (ER) fluids are usually concentrated on monodisperse systems. Real ER fluids must be polydisperse in nature, i.e., the suspended particles can have various sizes and/or different…
In this paper we present a comprehensive study of the step-emulsification process for high-throughput production of (sub-)$\mu$m-size monodisperse droplets. The microfluidic device combines a Hele-Shaw nanofluidic cell with a step-like…
Microfluidic devices are increasingly used in biological and chemical experiments due to their cost-effectiveness for rheological estimation in fluids. However, these devices often face challenges in terms of accuracy, size, and cost. This…
