Rising and settling 2D cylinders with centre-of-mass offset
Martin P. A. Assen, Jelle B. Will, Chong Shen Ng +3
Rotational effects are commonly neglected when considering the dynamics of freely rising or settling isotropic particles. Here, we demonstrate that particle rotations play an impor…
Strong alignment of prolate ellipsoids in Taylor-Couette flow
Martin P. A. Assen, Chong Shen Ng, Jelle B. Will +3
We report on the mobility and orientation of finite-size, neutrally buoyant prolate ellipsoids (of aspect ratio ) in Taylor-Couette flow, using interface resolved numerical si…
Dynamics of freely rising spheres: the effect of moment of inertia
Jelle B. Will, Dominik Krug
The goal of this study is to elucidate the effect the particle moment of inertia (MOI) has on the dynamics of spherical particles rising in a quiescent and turbulent fluid. To this…
Rising and Sinking in Resonance: Probing the critical role of rotational dynamics for buoyancy driven spheres
Jelle Will, Dominik Krug
We present experimental results for spherical particles rising and settling in a still fluid. Imposing a well-controlled center of mass offset enables us to vary the rotational dyn…
Kinematics and dynamics of freely rising spheroids at high Reynolds numbers
J. B. Will, V. Mathai, S. G. Huisman +3
We experimentally investigate the effect of geometrical anisotropy for buoyant ellipsoidal particles rising in a still fluid. All other parameters, such as the Galileo number $Ga \…
