Powder Characterization by Particle Shape Assessment

open access: yesKONA Powder and Particle Journal, 2014
In addition to the process variables, the quality of the powder metallurgical products depends to a large extent on the materials, bulk properties and morphological characteristics of the powders.

Shape‐Shifting Patchy Particles

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, 2017
AbstractA facile method to synthesize shape‐shifting patchy particles on the colloidal scale is described. The design is based on the solvent‐induced shifting of the patch shape between concave and convex features. The initial concave patchy particles were synthesized in a water suspension by a swelling‐induced buckling process.

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

Granular dampers: does particle shape matter?

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2016
By means of particle-based numerical simulations using the discrete element method, we address the question of how the performance of granular dampers is affected by the shape of the granular particles.

Numerical Prediction of the Bulk Density of Granular Particles of Different Geometries

open access: yesKONA Powder and Particle Journal, 2014
The Discrete Element Method (DEM) is increasingly used to simulate the motion of granular material in engineering devices. The most widely used shape to model granular particles is the sphere due to its simplicity ...

Combined Influence of Particle Shape and Fabric on the Shear Behaviour of Granular Materials

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
The anisotropy feature is an important characteristic of granular materials in natural life and is caused by two facts: the anisotropy feature of particle shape, such as an elongated or flattened shape, and the anisotropy feature of the packing fabric ...

Evaluating Sand Particle Surface Smoothness Using a New Computer-Based Approach to Improve the Characterization of Macroscale Parameters

open access: yesGeotechnics, 2023
The analysis of sands, and the foundation systems with which they interact, are largely dependent on macroscale behavioral parameters that represent the aggregated response of several microscale characteristics. This research paper examines the influence

Momentum distribution of a freely expanding Lieb-Liniger gas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We numerically study free expansion of a few Lieb-Liniger bosons, which are initially in the ground state of an infinitely deep hard-wall trap. Numerical calculation is carried out by employing a standard Fourier transform, as follows from the Fermi-Bose

Multi-particle long-range rapidity correlations from fluctuation of the fireball longitudinal shape

open access: yes, 2015
We calculate the genuine long-range multi-particle rapidity correlation functions, $C_{n}(y_1,...,y_n)$ for $n=3,4,5,6$, originating from fluctuations of the fireball longitudinal shape.
