Anisotropic particles are common in many industrial and natural turbulent flows. When these
particles are small and neutrally buoyant, they follow Lagrangian trajectories while …

Papermaking is to a large extent a multiphase flow process in which the structure of the
material and many of the relevant properties of the final product are determined by the …

In this paper, the dispersion of rigid, highly elongated fibers in a turbulent channel flow is
investigated. Fibers are treated as prolate ellipsoidal particles which move according to their …

The rotational dynamics of anisotropic particles advected in a turbulent fluid flow are
important in many industrial and natural settings. Particle rotations are controlled by small …

Motivated by applications in technology as well as in other disciplines where the motion of
particles in a turbulent flow field is important, the orientation and settling velocity of …

Direct numerical simulation (DNS) of small prolate ellipsoidal particles suspended in a
turbulent channel flow is reported. The coupling between the fluid and the particles is one …

This paper reviews recent experimental and modeling work on biomass multiphase flow of
suspensions and slurries. Problems associated with fibre flows (eg, fibre flocculation …

While multiphase flows are abundant in both natural environments and engineering
applications, their analysis and quantification present challenges. In particular …

In this work, we investigate the dynamics of long non-axisymmetric fibres in turbulent
channel flow. The experimental facility is the TU Wien Turbulent Water Channel, consisting …

The motion of an inertial ellipsoid in a creeping linear shear flow of a Newtonian fluid is
studied numerically. This constitutes a fundamental system that is used as a basis for …
