A robust method for calculating interface curvature and normal vectors using an extracted local level set [PDF]
The level-set method is a popular interface tracking method in two-phase flow simulations. An often-cited reason for using it is that the method naturally handles topological changes in the interface, e.g.

Lamellar thickness and stretching temperature dependency of cavitation in semicrystalline polymers. [PDF]
Polybutene-1 (PB-1), a typical semicrystalline polymer, in its stable form I shows a peculiar temperature dependent strain-whitening behavior when being stretched at temperatures in between room temperature and melting temperature of the crystallites ...

Computational Predictions for Boger Fluids and Circular Contraction Flow under Various Aspect Ratios
This work puts forward a modeling study contrasted against experimental, with focus on abrupt circular contraction flow of two highly-elastic constant shear-viscosity Boger fluids, i.e., a polyacrylamide dissolved in corn-syrup PAA/CS (Fluid-1) and a ...

Particles adsorbed at various non-aqueous liquid-liquid interfaces [PDF]
Particles adsorbed at liquid interfaces are commonly used to stabilise water-oil Pickering emulsions and water-air foams. The fundamental understanding of the physics of particles adsorbed at water-air and water-oil interfaces is improving significantly ...

Novel aspects in the crystallization of polybutene-1 [PDF]
Semicrystalline polymers cover over two thirds of commercially produced polymeric materials, and have been widely applied to many areas of the modern society, including building and construction, electronics, packaging, etc. Understanding the behavior of

On the Influence of Concentration on the Rheology of Polymer Solutions: Can Scaling Laws Be Found?
The present work is concerned with the study of the rheology of polymer solutions spanning different concentration regimes and originates from a former round-robin research programme on this subject, the S1 project, involving a number of research groups ...
