Fluid Vesicles in Flow [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Colloid and Interface Science, 2014
We review the dynamical behavior of giant fluid vesicles in various types of external hydrodynamic flow. The interplay between stresses arising from membrane elasticity, hydrodynamic flows, and the ever present thermal fluctuations leads to a rich ...

Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow

open access: yesAnnual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2023
Circulation of cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid around the central nervous system and through the brain transports not only those water-like fluids but also any solutes they carry, including nutrients, drugs, and metabolic wastes. Passing through brain tissue primarily during sleep, this circulation has implications for neurodegenerative ...

AERODYNAMIC ENHANCEMENT IN INNER CHANNEL OF TURBINE BLADE

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2015
This paper presents the numerical and experimental study of the flow structure in a radial cooling passage model of a gas turbine blade. The investigations focus on the flow aerodynamics in the channel, which is an accurate representation of the ...

The 'upstream wake' of swimming and flying animals and its correlation with propulsive efficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The interaction between swimming and flying animals and their fluid environments generates downstream wake structures such as vortices. In most studies, the upstream flow in front of the animal is neglected. In this study, we demonstrate the existence of

Inertia effects in rheometrical flow systems Part 2: The balance rheometer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
The flow field of a linear viscoelastic fluid in the balance rheometer, taking fluid inertia into account, has been studied theoretically and an exact solution is given.

High performance microfluidic rectifiers for viscoelastic fluid flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The flow of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids within microfluidic rectifiers with a hyperbolic shape was investigated to assess the effect of the bounding walls on the diodicity of the microfluidic device and achieve high flow anisotropy.

Dynamic Voltage Regulation and Unbalance Compensation in a Low-Voltage Distribution Network Using Energy Storage System

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Modern distribution grids may suffer problems of voltage distortion, especially along radial low-voltage feeders with a high penetration of intermittent, unbalanced and distorted loads and generation sources.
