Viscoelastic coarsening of quasi-2D foam
Chiara Guidolin, Jonathan Mac Intyre, Emmanuelle Rio +2
Foams are unstable jammed materials. They evolve over timescales comparable to their "time of use", which makes the study of their destabilisation mechanisms crucial for applicatio…
Machine learning and predicting the time dependent dynamics of local yielding in dry foams
Leevi Viitanen, Jonatan R. Mac Intyre, Juha Koivisto +2
The yielding of dry foams is enabled by small elementary yield events on the bubble scale, "T1"s. We study the large scale detection of these in an expanding 2D flow geometry using…
Modelling aerosol transport and virus exposure with numerical simulations in relation to SARS-CoV-2 transmission by inhalation indoors
Ville Vuorinen, Mia Aarnio, Mikko Alava +27
We provide research findings on the physics of aerosol dispersion relevant to the hypothesized aerosol transmission of SARS-CoV-2. We utilize physics-based modeling at different le…
The effect of pressure pulsing on the mechanical dewatering of nanofiber suspensions
Marko Korhonen, Antti Puisto, Mikko Alava +1
Dewatering processes are invariably encountered in the chemical manufacturing and processing of various bioproducts. In this study, Computational Fluid Mechanics (CFD) simulations…
Coarsening and mechanics in the bubble model for wet foams
Kseniia Khakalo, Karsten Baumgarten, Brian P. Tighe +1
Aqueous foams are an important model system that displays coarsening dynamics. Coarsening in dispersions and foams is well understood in the dilute and dry limits, where the gas fr…
Friction controls submerged granular flows
Juha Koivisto, Marko Korhonen, Mikko J. Alava +3
We investigate the coupling between interstitial medium and granular particles by studying the hopper flow of dry and submerged system experimentally and numerically. In accordance…
