Fall 2015
Superhydrophobic surfaces are proven to be capable of reducing the skin friction in laminar and turbulent flows. These surfaces consist of micro/nano-scale hydrophobic roughness features which make the surface render a non-wetting property due to the entrainment of air pockets between the solid...

Fall 2022
The flow structure in turbulent Taylor vortex flow (TTV) was investigated in Newtonian and shear-thinning fluids. The radius ratio of the investigated case is η=0.76, and the aspect ratio of the experimental setup is 10.32. First, detailed velocity measurements of the time-averaged azimuthal and...
