Spheres, tears, and spears: Regulating the perimeter and circularity of millimeter-sized alginate hydrogel beads. [PDF]
Abstract Generating hydrogel beads pertains to many engineering applications. We examined two alginate‐based fluids at three concentrations of alginate, cAG. We used the “Map of Misery” to determine which material property (viscosity, elasticity, and inertia) drives droplet formation. Next, we measured the perimeter and circularity of hydrogel beads as

A Volume of Fluid (VOF) Method for the Simulation of Metallurgical Flows
A finite difference numerical method, based on the VOF approach for tracking interface distortions, is presented. It is capable of accurately simulating the fluid flow of multiple immiscible fluids for metallurgical applications. This volume tracking method is based on piecewise linear reconstructions of interfaces, density distributions based on a ...

An All-Mach Number HLLC-Based Scheme for Multi-Phase Flow with Surface Tension
This paper presents an all-Mach method for two-phase inviscid flow in the presence of surface tension. A modified version of the Hartens–Lax–van Leer Contact (HLLC) solver is developed and combined for the first time with a widely used volume-of-fluid ...

Full-Eulerian Finite-Difference Simulation of Fluid Flow in Hyperelastic Wavy Channel
Fluid flows interacting with deformable wavy channel are simulated by a newly developed full-Eulerian simulation method. A single set of the governing equations for fluid and solid is employed, and a volume-of-fluid (VOF) function is used for describing ...
