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

We study experimentally the behaviour of negatively buoyant disks and fibres in a turbulent
boundary layer. The regime is relevant to the transport of natural sediment or plastic …

In this study, the slip velocity between rigid fibers and a viscous carrier fluid is investigated
for the reference case of turbulent channel flow. The statistical moments of the slip velocity …

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 …

We use three-dimensional Voronoï analysis and results from a direct numerical simulation to
study the preferential concentration of inertial particles in a vertical channel flow at Reynolds …

Simultaneous two-phase particle image/tracking velocimetry (PIV/PTV) measurements are
conducted on a particle-laden turbulent boundary layer (TBL) over a horizontal smooth-flat …

Using disk, spherical and needle-like particles with equal equivalent volume diameters, the
orientational dynamics of non-spherical particles is studied in a turbulent channel flow. An …

A horizontal water channel facility was built to study particle dynamics in a turbulent flow.
The channel is sufficiently long to produce fully developed turbulence at the test section, and …

The spatial and orientational behaviour of fibres within a suspension influences the
rheological and mechanical properties of that suspension. An Eulerian-Lagrangian …

In a horizontal wind tunnel, experiments were performed on both particle-free and particle-
laden flows at the same incoming velocity. Glass micro-spheres were carried by air along …
