Spheres, tears, and spears: Regulating the perimeter and circularity of millimeter-sized alginate hydrogel beads. [PDF]

open access: yesAIChE J
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

open access: yesISIJ International, 2001
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 ...
