Micro/Nanoscale Acoustic Manipulation: From Particle Control to Autonomous Microswimmers
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This conceptual framework illustrates acoustic technology as a multifunctional platform enabling passive particle manipulation across scales and autonomous propulsion of microswimmers. ABSTRACT Acoustic manipulation and propulsion technologies have emerged as powerful platforms for micro/nanoscale control, enabled by their non‐contact operation, label ...

The thinning of lamellae in surfactant-free foams with non-Newtonian liquid phase [PDF]
, 2008 Thinning rates of liquid lamellae in surfactant-free non-Newtonian gas–liquid foams, appropriate for ceramic or polymer melts and also in metals near the melting point, are derived in two dimensions by matched asymptotic analysis valid at small capillary

On the Effect of Gas Content in Centrifugal Pump Operations with Non-Newtonian Slurries
Non-Newtonian fluids are widespread in industry, e.g., biomedical, food, and oil and gas, and their rheology plays a fundamental role in choosing the processing parameters. Centrifugal pumps are widely employed to ensure the displacement of a huge amount

LES of non-Newtonian physiological blood flow in a model of arterial stenosis [PDF]
, 2012 Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is performed to study the physiological pulsatile transition-to-turbulent non-Newtonian blood flow through a 3D model of arterial stenosis by using five different blood viscosity models: (i) Power-law, (ii) Carreau, (iii ...

Turbulence Intensity Modulation by Micropolar Fluids
, 2021 Fluid microstructure nature has a direct effect on turbulence enhancement or attenuation. Certain classes of fluids, such as polymers, tend to reduce turbulence intensity, while others, like dense suspensions, present the opposite results.

A Computational Approach for Biomimetic Design of Liver‐On‐A‐Chip
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.A biomimetic liver‐on‐a‐chip with antiparallel perfusion was designed using COMSOL‐guided simulation to replicate hepatic acinus transport. Full‐scale modelling revealed diffusion‐dominated, length‐dependent nutrient gradients and low‐shear conditions.

Applying Tiab’s direct synthesis technique to dilatant non-Newtonian/Newtonian fluids
Ingeniería e Investigación, 2011 Non-Newtonian fluids, such as polymer solutions, have been used by the oil industry for many years as fracturing agents and drilling mud. These solutions, which normally include thickened water and jelled fluids, are injected into the formation to ...
