The interactions of textiles with moisture have been thoroughly studied in textile research,
while fluid mechanists and soft matter physicists have partially investigated the underlying …

Investigation of the physical phenomena involved in blood interactions with real surfaces
present new exciting challenges. The fluid mechanical properties of such a fluid is singular …

The underlying physics in bloodstain formation on fabrics is not well understood, despite its
importance in bloodstain pattern analysis (BPA). This paper presents a fundamental study of …

In this study, we analyze stain growth kinetics from droplets of biological fluids such as
blood, plasma, and protein solutions on paper both experimentally and numerically. The …

This paper discusses the effects of thickness, mass per unit area, sett, yarn linear density
and twist of calico fabrics (100% cotton, plain woven) on the morphology of passive …

Bloodstain pattern analysis (BPA) of bloodstains on hard, non-porous surfaces has found
widespread use in crime scene analysis and reconstruction for violent crimes in which …

This work characterizes fundamental features of static drip patterns simulated for forensic
bloodstain pattern analysis. The purpose of this study was to determine if and how two …

Bloodstain pattern analysis considers stains on various porous and non-porous surfaces, for
the purpose of crime scene reconstruction. On non-porous surfaces, several studies relate …

Bloodstain pattern analysis (BPA) for stains found on non‐porous surfaces has matured into
a powerful forensic science tool based on fluid mechanics principles. The same cannot be …

The majority of fabrics at crime scenes have been coloured in some way. The effect of such
treatments on resultant bloodstains has not been considered. In this work, horse blood was …
