In this work we present, for the first time, a computational fluid dynamics tool for the simulation of the metered discharge in a pressurized metered dose inhaler. The model, based on open-source software, adopts the Volume-Of-Fluid method…
Active fluid droplets are a class of soft materials exhibiting autonomous motion sustained by an energy supply. Such systems have been shown to capture motility regimes typical of biological cells and are ideal candidates as building-block…
The main problem in liquid porosimetry, which prevents to see the pore sizes smaller than 2 microns in diameter, is direct gas diffusion flow through a micro-porous membrane. This diffusion causes bubbles formation below the membrane and…
One of the harmful contaminants in the atmosphere, which negatively affects the well-being of both humans and animals, is the suspended respirable particles. The most difficult aspect of the study is now removing these fine respirable…
In our daily lives, after shaking a salad dressing, we see the coarsening of oil droplets suspended in vinegar. Such a demixing process is observed everywhere in nature and also of technological importance. For a case of high droplet…
The cohesive interactions between fine metal powder particles crucially influence their flow behavior, which is in turn important to many powder-based manufacturing processes including emerging methods for powder-based metal additive…
Atmospheric aerosol nucleation contributes to more than half of cloud condensation nuclei globally. The emissions, properties and concentrations of atmospheric aerosols or aerosol precursors could respond significantly to climate change.…
Previous experimental studies have shown that when a layer of solid particles is explosively dispersed, the particles often develop a non-uniform spatial distribution. The instabilities within the particle bed and at the particle layer…
The penetrable-sphere model has been introduced in the literature to describe the peculiar thermodynamic behavior of some colloidal systems. In this model the interaction potential is $\phi(r)=\epsilon>0$ if the two spheres are overlapped…
In melt-blowing processes mico- and nanofibers are produced by the extrusion of polymeric jets into a directed, turbulent high-speed airflow. Up to now the physical mechanism for the drastic jet thinning is not fully understood, since in…
Osmosis plays a central role in the function of living and soft matter systems. While the thermodynamics of osmosis is well understood, the underlying microscopic dynamical mechanisms remain the subject of discussion. Unraveling these…
Context: Bouncing collisions of dust aggregates within the protoplanetary may have a significant impact on the growth process of planetesimals. Yet, the conditions that result in bouncing are not very well understood. Existing simulations…
Atmospheric pressure capillary dielectric barrier oxygen discharge plasma jet is developed to generate non-thermal plasma using unipolar positive pulse power supply. Both optical and electrical techniques are used to investigate the…
In this paper, we explore osmotic transport by means of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We first consider osmosis through a membrane, and investigate the reflection coefficient of an imperfectly semi-permeable membrane, in the dilute…
We survey our research on modeling the mechanisms of control of uniformity in growth of nanosize and colloid particles. The former are produced as nanocrystals, by burst-nucleation from solution. The latter, colloid-size particles, are…
Collimation systems are essential in particle accelerators to safely and efficiently manage unavoidable beam losses during operation. These systems rely on collimators, which are specially designed movable jaws or absorbers positioned close…
We experimentally study the detachment of drops of granular suspensions using a density matched model suspension with varying volume fraction ({\phi} = 15% to 55%) and grain diameter (d = 20 {\mu}m to 140 {\mu}m). We show that at the…
The occurrence of concentration and temperature gradients in saline microdroplets evaporating directly in air makes them unsuitable for nucleation studies where homogeneous composition is required. This can be addressed by immersing the…
The combustion characteristics of ethanol/Jet A-1 fuel droplets having three different proportions of ethanol (10%, 30%, and 50% by vol.) are investigated in the present study. The large volatility differential between ethanol and Jet A-1…
The optimal design seeks the best possible solution(s) for a mechanical structure, device, or system, satisfying a series of requirements and leading to the best performance. In this work, optimized nozzle shapes have been designed for a…
