Vertical wind velocity measurements using a five-hole probe with remotely piloted aircraft to study aerosol–cloud interactions [PDF]
The importance of vertical wind velocities (in particular positive vertical wind velocities or updrafts) in atmospheric science has motivated the need to deploy multi-hole probes developed for manned aircraft in small remotely piloted aircraft (RPA ...

Vibration Induced Transport of Enclosed Droplets
The droplet response to vibrations has been well characterized on open substrates, but microfluidic applications for droplets on open systems are limited by rapid evaporation rates and prone to environmental contamination.

On Modeling of Spray G ECN Using ROI-Based Eulerian-Lagrangian Simulation
A numerical study has been carried out to understand the effects of Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (standard k ― ε and RNG k ― ε model) and large eddy simulations (LES) on a multi-hole gasoline direct injection (GDI) system.

Effect of Hydrophilicity/Hydrophobicity of the Injector Wall on Atomization Performance
Hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity is a common physical property of the material. Water droplets roll on lotus leaf, and a lot of dust and dirt on the surface of the lotus leaf will be taken away, playing a certain cleaning role.

Measurement of the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya Interaction in Mn4N Films That Host Skyrmions
Mn4N thin film is one of the potential magnetic mediums for spintronic devices due to its ferrimagnetism with low magnetization, large perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), thermal stability, and large domain wall velocity.
