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…
Aerosol deposition in mucus-lined ciliated airways
Swarnaditya Hazra, Jason R. Picardo
We study the transport and deposition of inhaled aerosols in a mid-generation, mucus-lined lung airway, with the aim of understanding if and how airborne particles can avoid the mu…
Deriving thin-film averaged equations using computer algebra
Swarnaditya Hazra, Jason R. Picardo
We demonstrate the use of computer algebra for facilitating the derivation of thin film reduced-order models. We focus on the weighted residual integral boundary layer (WRIBL) meth…
Turbulent stretching of dumbbells with hydrodynamic interactions: an analytical study
Jason R. Picardo, Dario Vincenzi
We study the stretching of an elastic dumbbell in a turbulent flow, with the aim of understanding and quantifying the effect of hydrodynamic interactions (HI) between the beads of…
