Particle image velocimetry/ tracking in turbulent flow over riblet surfaces with superhydrophobic coating
DownloadFall 2016
Riblet surfaces have been introduced as of one successful technique to reduce skin-friction. Advanced particle image velocimetry (PIV) and particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) are employed to investigate turbulent structures over riblet surfaces by several researchers including Suzuki and Kasagi...

To reduce CO2 emissions, the aviation industry has begun looking into alternative biofuels as a replacement for conventional fossil-fuel based jet fuel. Although biofuels may reduce aircraft CO2 emissions, it is also important to consider how other emissions are effected such as particle...

In this work, particles emissions from flares with entrained droplets were characterized during the operations of oil/gas wells. It is a likely scenario that droplets of flowback fluids or produced water entrain in the flare gas and burn in an open flame. Major ions found in these fluids are...

Last couple of decades have witnessed massive upsurge in efforts of transporting and manipulating solutes and moieties in microfluidic devices. Classical pressure-driven transport demands massive pumping power for microchannels making it unusable in several microfluidic applications. Accordingly,...

Scoliosis is the deformation of the spine and, in some cases, surgery is suggested in order to correct the curvature and prevent progression. During scoliosis surgery, the patient is positioned on the surgical frame face down in such a way that the hips and chest are placed over cushions. Lateral...

Meeting the objectives of the Paris Agreement requires society to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions levels in every sector. Waste management has a key role in achieving these objectives and is fundamental for sustainable growth. Some municipal solid waste (MSW) streams have the potential for...

This thesis describes an investigation of gravity currents, which are buoyancy-driven horizontal fluid flows. In particular this work reports upon a series of laboratory experiments and complementary (two-dimensional) direct numerical simulations that explore the lock release of a fixed volume of...
