Asymptotic Behavior of a Buoyant Jet Regime inside a Carbon-dioxide Ejector
Sreetam Bhaduri, Ivan C. Christov, Eckhard A. Groll +1
Ejectors are used in various engineering systems, including steam and vapor compression cycles. Optimizing the performance of ejectors requires understanding and analysis of multip…
Non-self-adjoint sixth-order eigenvalue problems arising from clamped elastic thin films on closed domains
N C Papanicolaou, I C Christov
Sixth-order boundary value problems (BVPs) arise in thin-film flows with a surface that has elastic bending resistance. We consider the case in which the elastic interface is clamp…
Experimental investigation of the flow rate--pressure drop relation of a viscoelastic Boger fluid in a deformable channel
SungGyu Chun, Ivan C. Christov, Jie Feng
We study the steady flow-induced deformation between an incompressible non-Newtonian fluid and a three-dimensional (3D) deformable channel. Specifically, we provide a comprehensive…
Oscillatory flows in three-dimensional deformable microchannels
Anxu Huang, Shrihari D. Pande, Jie Feng +1
Deformable microchannels emulate a key characteristic of soft biological systems and flexible engineering devices: the flow-induced deformation of the conduit due to slow viscous f…
Series solutions for clamped peridynamic beams using fourth-order eigenfunctions
Ziyu Wang, Ivan C. Christov
We propose an analytical approach to solving nonlocal generalizations of the Euler--Bernoulli beam. Specifically, we consider a version of the governing equation recently derived u…
