Localizing polymers promotes the centre-mode elastic instability
Shailendra Kumar Yadav, Jason R. Picardo
The centre-mode elastic instability, prevalent in rectilinear flows of dilute polymer solutions, allows dynamic states to emerge even in the absence of inertia. Here, we show that…
Resolving the inverse problem in pulse response analysis of TAP reactors
Anjali Aleria, Evgeniy Redekop, A. K. Suresh +1
Pulse experiments in the temporal analysis of products (TAP) reactor are one of the most important methods for studying transient kinetics of gas-solid catalytic reactions. The Y-p…
How hydrodynamic interactions alter polymer stretching in turbulence
Aditya Ganesh, Dario Vincenzi, Ranganathan Prabhakar +1
Hydrodynamic interactions (HI) between segments of a polymer have long been known to strongly affect polymer stretching in laminar viscometric flows. Yet the role of HI in fluctuat…
Stretching and breaking of particles in compressible random flows
Dipankar Roy, Marco Martins Afonso, Jason R. Picardo +1
A key feature of turbulent suspensions that involve floating particles on the surface or inertial particles in the bulk is the compressibility of the effective particle-phase veloc…
Morphology of mucus films in lung airways: secretion and ciliary evacuation
Swarnaditya Hazra, Jason R. Picardo
Lung airways are lined by a film of mucus which protects the epithelium from inhaled particles. To maintain a uniform coating, the mucus that is secreted into airways must be distr…
Bioluminescence in turbulence: intermittent straining lights up dinoflagellates
Praphul Kumar, Jason R. Picardo
Dinoflagellates are marine phytoplankton that emit flashes of light in response to flow-induced deformation; they are responsible for illuminating breaking-waves, wakes of ships, a…
