Inertial migration of red blood cells under a Newtonian fluid in a circular channel
Naoki Takeishi, Hiroshi Yamashita, Toshihiro Omori +3
We present a numerical analysis of the lateral movement and equilibrium radial positions of red blood cells (RBCs) with major diameter of 8 m under a Newtonian fluid in a circul…
Numerical reproduction of the spiral wave visualized experimentally in a wide-gap spherical Couette flow
Kazuki Yoshikawa, Tomoaki Itano, Sugihara-Seki Masako
SCF experiments were conducted according to the work of Egbers and Rath [Acta Mech. 111 pp. 125--140 (1995)]. Through visualization using aluminium flakes drifting on a horizontal…
A thermal convection limit of spiral state in wide-gap spherical Couette flow
Tomoaki Itano, Fumitoshi Goto, Kazuki Yoshikawa +1
The symmetries of flow structures are often prescribed by their mechanical instability and geometry. Here, as an example, we present the homotopy of the rotating 3-fold spiral stat…
