Bedload transport in rivers, size matters but so does shape
Bedload transport modelling in rivers takes into account the size and density of pebbles to estimate particle mobility, but does not formally consider particle shape.

Shape-dependence of particle rotation in isotropic turbulence
We consider the rotation of neutrally buoyant axisymmetric particles suspended in isotropic turbulence. Using laboratory experiments as well as numerical and analytical calculations, we explore how particle rotation depends upon particle shape.

A detailed knowledge of the influence of a particle’s shape on its settling behavior is useful for the prediction and design of separation processes. Models in the available literature usually fit a given function to experimental data.

Shaping Particles for Ultramicrotomy [PDF]
AbstractA technique for preshaping large particles of reacted glass for ultramicrotomy is described. This technique preserves delicate surface layers and results in more sections per block extending deeper into the sample than other techniques.

Phase Separation and Self-Assembly in a Fluid of Mickey Mouse Particles
Recent developments in the synthesis of colloidal particles allow for control over shape and inter-particle interaction. One example, among others, is the so-called "Mickey Mouse" (MM) particle for which the self-assembly properties have been previously ...

Effect of Particle Size and Constraint Conditions on Single Particle Strength of Carbonate Sand
Carbonate sand is often encountered and utilized as construction material in offshore engineering projects. Carbonate sand particles, which are porous and angular, are found to be highly crushable under high stress conditions, whereas the mechanisms and ...

Transforming mesoscale granular plasticity through particle shape
When an amorphous material is strained beyond the point of yielding it enters a state of continual reconfiguration via dissipative, avalanche-like slip events that relieve built-up local stress.

Single particle crushing tests of coarse grained soil considering size and shape effects
Particle size and shape significantly influence the crushing behaviors of coarse grained soil. In this study, the particle scanning, particle shape analysis, and single particle compression tests on the gravel soils of high filling project of Baihetan ...
