Design and Statistical Optimization of PLA Organoclay‐Based Dispersions for Recyclable Packaging Paper

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Through experimental design, polylactic acid (PLA)—organoclay dispersions were optimized to produce biobased coatings that have a high barrier potential while maintaining repulpability, promoting sustainable packaging solutions. ABSTRACT Performance and recyclability of paper coatings depend on precise control of polymer, surfactant, filler ...

Droplet size spectrum, velocity, angle and flow rate of pulse‐width‐modulated spray nozzles with adjuvants

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Optimizing PWM performance requires not only appropriate duty cycle selection, but also careful choice of adjuvant formulation tailored to each nozzle type. Drift control agents increased droplet size and reduced fine droplets, mitigating PWM‐induced variability. Decreasing the duty cycle consistently narrowed the spray angle.

Experimental study on solids mixing and bubble behavior in a pseudo-2D, freely bubbling, gas-solid fluidized bed using PIV and DIA [PDF]

, 2007
The hydrodynamics of a freely bubbling, gas-solid fluidized bed has been investigated experimentally with non-invasive measuring techniques in a pseudo-2D column filled with glass beads of 400-600 μm fluidized with air.

Using Fine Sediment Monitoring to Quantify Sand Loading Over Time

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverine sand loading can lead to geomorphic change, impacting river processes like lateral migration and vertical aggradation or degradation. Yet many sediment monitoring programs track only fine sediment measurable as total suspended solids (TSS). Here, we assess the ability for TSS data to be used to determine sand loading.

A Feature Tracking velocimetry technique applied to inclined negatively buoyant jets [PDF]

, 2014
We have applied a Feature Tracking Velocimetry (FTV) technique to measure displacements of particles on inclined negatively buoyant jets (INBJs), issuing from a circular sharp-edged orifice, in order to investigate, among the others, the symmetry ...

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Adaptive particle image velocimetry based on sharpness metrics

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2018
Background Optical distortions can significantly deteriorate the measurement accuracy in particle image velocimetry systems. Such distortions can occur at fluctuating phase boundaries during flow measurement and result from the accompanied refractive ...

Aligning Real‐Time Recurrence Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations with Plant Data for the Ruhrstahl–Heraeus Degassing Process of Steel

steel research international, EarlyView.
Uncertainties exist in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of complex metallurgical processes, even when partly validated by laboratory experiments. rCFD enables computationally efficient prediction of long‐term RH degassing and can be adapted to vary flow conditions.
