Evaluation of the Lidar/Radiometer Inversion Code (LIRIC) to determine microphysical properties of volcanic and desert dust [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2013
The Lidar/Radiometer Inversion Code (LIRIC) combines the multiwavelength lidar technique with sun/sky photometry and allows us to retrieve vertical profiles of particle optical and microphysical properties separately for fine-mode and coarse-mode ...

Aerodynamic Drag of Rod-shaped Particles Near-wall in Nuclear Reactor

open access: yesYuanzineng kexue jishu, 2023
Aerosols in advanced reactors are considered the primary carriers of radioactive nuclides, and the motion behavior of aerosol particles in the near-wall region of reactors is of significant importance for reactor safety analysis.

A new model for settling velocity of non-spherical particles [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021
Abstract The settlement of non-spherical particles, such as propagules of plants and natural sediments, are commonly observed in riverine ecosystems. The settling process is influenced by both particle properties (size, density and shape) and fluid properties (density and viscosity).

Impact of Composite Particle Morphology on the Performance of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Electrode: A Study by Finite Element Modelling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2016
Micro-models, which assume that the electrode mixture particles are regularly spherical according to the mathematical model, have been extensively studied by computer simulation. Actually, the component particles are irregularly even distorted.

Numerical investigation of motion of a non-spherical particle (Effects of gas blowing-out on motion of a particle in a uniform flow)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
This paper reports a numerical investigation of the motion of spherical and non-spherical particles with/without gas blowing-out in a vertical uniform flow. A sphere, spheroid and pulverized coal particle are targeted in this study.

Saltation of Non-Spherical Sand Particles

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Saltation is an important geological process and the primary source of atmospheric mineral dust aerosols. Unfortunately, no studies to date have been able to precisely reproduce the saltation process because of the simplified theoretical models used.

Multipole polarizability of a graded spherical particle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have studied the multipole polarizability of a graded spherical particle in a nonuniform electric field, in which the conductivity can vary radially inside the particle.

Numerical determination of the effective moments of non-spherical particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Dielectric characterisation of polarisable particles, and prediction of the forces and torques exerted upon them, relies on the knowledge of the effective, induced dipole moment. In turn, through the mechanism of depolarisation, the induced dipole moment

Motion by Stopping: Rectifying Brownian Motion of Non-spherical Particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We show that Brownian motion is spatially not symmetric for mesoscopic particles embedded in a fluid if the particle is not in thermal equilibrium and its shape is not spherical. In view of applications on molecular motors in biological cells, we sustain
