A model for investigating the behaviour of non-spherical particles at interfaces

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2011
This paper introduces a simple method for modelling non-spherical particles with a fixed contact angle at an interface whilst also providing a method to fix the particles orientation. It is shown how a wide variety of particle shapes (spherical, ellipsoidal, disc) can be created from a simple initial geometry containing only six vertices.

Sedimentation of non-spherical particles

SMC'98 Conference Proceedings. 1998 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (Cat. No.98CH36218), 2002
Sedimentation rates of settling of single non-spherical particles within a bounded Newtonian fluid were experimentally determined as well as modelled numerically using a fully 3D boundary element method. The numerical study was then extended to the case of the unbounded fluid.

Droplet Microfluidics for Fabrication of Non‐Spherical Particles

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2010
AbstractWe describe new developments for controlled fabrication of monodisperse non‐spherical particles using droplet microfluidics. The high degree of control afforded by microfluidic technologies enables generation of single and multiple emulsion droplets.

Dielectrophoresis of non-spherical particles

Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 2009
Dielectrophoresis of non-spherical particles is attracting attention, particularly for the aligned deposition of nanowires and nanotubes. The orientation and translation of ellipsoids are studied theoretically, and it is found that the orientation plays a significant role in determining the particle trajectory.

Deposition of non-spherical particles in bifurcating airways

Pharmaceutical Development and Technology, 2013
Particle morphology plays an important role in pulmonary drug delivery. Not only does particle shape affect how particles flow and deposit, the shape also influences the drug release rate from the particles. In this work, a semi-theoretical relationship is developed to describe deposition efficiency as a function of fluid and particle properties ...

Sintering of Non-Spherical Polyethylene Particles

Polymers and Polymer Composites, 2006
Experimental observations of polymer sintering with non-spherical particles have been carried out. The evolution of neck formation during sintering was studied by two- particle experiments in a temperature-controlled oven. Shrinkage and change in surface area were also measured using image analysis.
