Effects of elastoviscoplastic properties of mucus on airway closure in healthy and pathological conditions
O. Erken, B. Fazla, F. Romanò +3
Airway mucus is a complex material with both viscoelastic and viscoplastic properties that vary with healthy and pathological lung conditions. In this study, the effects of these c…
Polymer drag reduction in surfactant-contaminated turbulent bubbly channel flows
Daulet Izbassarov, Zaheer Ahmed, Pedro Costa +3
Polymer additives are commonly utilized to manipulate bubbly flows in various applications. Here, we investigate the effects of clean and contaminated bubbles driven upwards (upflo…
Turbulent bubbly channel flows: Effects of soluble surfactant and viscoelasticity
Zaheer Ahmed, Daulet Izbassarov, Pedro Costa +2
Interface-resolved direct numerical simulations are performed to examine the combined effects of soluble surfactant and viscoelasticity on the structure of a bubbly turbulent chann…
