Effect of particle inertia on the alignment of small ice crystals in turbulent clouds
K. Gustavsson, M. Z. Sheikh, A. Naso +2
Small non-spherical particles settling in a quiescent fluid tend to orient so that their broad side faces down, because this is a stable fixed point of their angular dynamics at sm…

Inertial torque on a small spheroid in a stationary uniform flow
F. Jiang, L. Zhao, H. I. Andersson +3
How anisotropic particles rotate and orient in a flow depends on the hydrodynamic torque they experience. Here we compute the torque acting on a small spheroid in a uniform flow by…

Theory for the effect of fluid inertia on the orientation of a small particle settling in turbulence
K. Gustavsson, M. Z. Sheikh, D. Lopez +3
Ice crystals settling through a turbulent cloud are rotated by turbulent velocity gradients. In the same way, turbulence affects the orientation of aggregates of organic matter set…
