Nearly Complete Segregation of Submerged Grains in a Rotating Drum
Yu Chen, Deheng Wei, Si Suo +2
Density-driven segregations, extensively studied in a simple rotating drum, are enriched with a wide range of underlying physics. Diverse symmetrical segregation patterns formed by…
On the Drag Coefficient Universality of a Rough Grain in Creeping Flow
Si Suo, Deheng Wei, Budi Zhao +2
Controversy exists regarding whether grain morphology reduces or enhances the drag of a single grain in creeping flows; further complication occurs when orientation dependence for…
Contact-angle hysteresis provides resistance to drainage of liquid-infused surfaces in turbulent flows
Sofia Saoncella, Si Suo, Johan Sundin +5
Lubricated textured surfaces immersed in liquid flows offer tremendous potential for reducing fluid drag, enhancing heat and mass transfer, and preventing fouling. According to cur…
Dewetting of a corner film wrapping a wall-mounted cylinder
Si Suo, Seyed Morteza Habibi Khorasani, Shervin Bagheri
In this study, we investigate the stability of a liquid film that partially wets a corner between a cylinder and a substrate, using a combination of theoretical and numerical appro…
An unexplored valley of binary packing: The loose jamming state
Si Suo, Chongpu Zhai, Minglong Xu +2
We present a theoretical prediction on random close packing factor ϕ_RCP^b of binary granular packings based on the hard-sphere fluid theory. An unexplored regime is unravelled, wh…
Shear-induced droplet mobility within porous surfaces
Si Suo, Haibo Zhao, Shervin Bagheri +2
Droplet mobility under shear flows is important in a wide range of engineering applications, e.g., fog collection, and self-cleaning surfaces. For structured surfaces to achieve su…
