Stochastic Modeling of Filtration with Sieving in Graded Pore Networks
Binan Gu, Pejman Sanaei, Lou Kondic +1
We model filtration of a feed solution, containing both small and large foulant particles, by a membrane filter. The membrane interior is modeled as a network of pores, allowing fo…
Monte-Carlo based model for the extraction of oil from oil-water mixtures using wetting and surface acoustic waves
Jesús. M. Marcos, Yifan Li, Mark Fasano +4
This work presents a Monte Carlo (MC) based microscopic model for simulating the extraction of oil from oil-in-water emulsions under the influence of surface acoustic waves (SAWs).…
Using wetting and ultrasonic waves to extract oil from oil/water mixtures
Yifan Li, Jesus M. Marcos, Mark Fasano +4
Oil and water placed atop of a solid surface respond differently to a MHz-level surface acoustic wave (SAW) propagating in the solid due to their different surface wetting properti…
Using Thermal Crowding to Direct Pattern Formation on the Nanoscale
Ryan H. Allaire, Linda J. Cummings, Lou Kondic
Metal films and other geometries of nanoscale thickness, when exposed to laser irradiation, melt and evolve as fluids as long as their temperature is sufficiently high. This evolut…
