We study experimentally the motion of a solid sphere settling under gravity in a fluid at rest.
The particle velocity is measured with a new acoustic method. Variations of the sphere size …

The two-way coupling mechanisms in particle-laden mixing layers are investigated, with and
without particle settling, and with an emphasis on the resulting modifications to the fluid …

A mathematical model has been developed to describe the motion of particles in current-
carrying liquid metals flowing through a cylindrical pipe. The fluid velocity field was obtained …

This thesis reports measurements of fluid particle acceleration in a large Reynolds number
turbulent flow. The method for acceleration measurement is direct optical imaging of the …

Viscous incompressible flow past a finite axisymmetric body in an unbounded domain is
considered computationally. The domain is divided into viscous interior and inviscid exterior …

This study focuses on the effect of spatial non-uniformity in the ambient flow on the forces
acting on a spherical particle at moderate particle Reynolds numbers. A scaling analysis is …
