A numerical study on the coefficient of restitution of wet collisions
Abhishek Kumar Singh, Christopher Robert Kit Windows-Yule, Prapanch Nair
Using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations, we investigate the coefficient of restitution (COR) in wet collisions and identify a scaling law governing its behavior. Th…

A numerical study on the effect of rolling friction on clogging of pores in particle-laden flows
Sagar G. Nayak, Zhenjiang You, Yuchen Dai +2
Particulate matter in a fluid injected into a porous reservoir impairs its permeability spatio-temporally due to pore clogging. As particle volume fraction increases near the pore…

A three-dimensional numerical scheme for modeling three-phase contact line pinning using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Subrat Kumar Nayak, Amitabh Bhattacharya, Prapanch Nair
In several capillary dynamics experiments, the liquid domain is confined by pinning the three-phase contact line along a sharp edge or a discontinuity on the substrate. Simulating…
