The objective of this work was to create a Graphical Processing Unit (GPU)-based Real-Time Particle Image Velocimetry (RT-PIV) system for use in Active Flow Control (AFC) of a Turbulent Boundary Layer (TBL), and to evaluate the effect of effect of the flow control on the boundary layer. The...

The PICO-60 experiment offers world leading sensitivity to the spin-dependent WIMP search, looking for the direct measurement of dark matter nuclear recoils with protons. The primary background in moderately super-heated C3F8 bubble chambers are neutrons, which can produce a signal...

Heterogeneity of surfaces is often included in mathematical treatments of colloid transport and deposition as an afterthought, if at all. Most previous models of colloid transport and deposition have employed idealizations and simplifications such as assuming smooth collector surfaces with...

Most current models for the deposition of aerosol particles in the human lung are based on a Lagrangian reference frame, which is ill-suited for modeling transient eects. Deposition models based on an Eulerian reference frame are much better at capturing instantaneous time-dependent eects, though...
