Collagen fibril diameter distribution affects permeability of ligament tissue: A computational study on healthy and injured tissues
(2020)Background and objective In a vascular or hypovascular tissues, elements required for maintaining tissue functions are recruited through diffusion, which is highly related with the permeability of the extracellular matrix ... -
Computational study of the effect of gradient magnetic field in navigation of spherical particles
(2017)The use of spherical magnetic nanoparticles that are coated with drugs and can be navigated in arteries to attack tumors is proposed as an alternative to chemotherapy. Navigation of particles is due to magnetic field ... -
Experimental and Numerical Study of Turbulent Flow in Open Channels with Impermeable and Porous Bed
(2016)In order to experimentally and numerically investigate turbulent flow in an open channel with porous (vegetated) and impermeable bed 2D Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and a Computational Fluid Dynamical (CFD) model were ... -
Fluid Penetration in a Deformable Permeable Web Moving Past a Stationary Rigid Solid Cylinder
(2017)We present an analysis for the process of fluid infiltration into a deformable, thin and permeable web that moves in close proximity over a rigid and stationary solid cylinder. While this is a process of significant interest ... -
Friction factor in nanochannel flows
(2016)Non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations are employed in order to access the detailed atomic behavior of fluids moving in nanochannels and to quantify the associated energy dissipation. Nanochannels of various degrees ... -
The influence of heat transfer effects on turbine performance characteristics
(2006)A method allowing the evaluation of the effects related to heat transfer to the turbine blades on its performance characteristics is presented. The effects investigated are the change of passage dimensions, resulting from ... -
The McCormack model: Channel flow of a binary gas mixture driven by temperature, pressure and density gradients
(2004)An analytical version of the discrete-ordinates method (the ADO method) is used to establish concise and particularly accurate solutions to the problems of Poiseuille flow, thermal-creep flow and diffusion flow for a binary ... -
Particle based simulation of fluid flow in periodically grooved channels
(2016)The method of Dissipative Particle Dynamics is applied to investigate the effect of the parameters employed to model the presence of periodic rectangular wall roughness on planar nanochannel flow. The parameters considered ... -
Permeation potential of colloidal silica for passive stabilization of liquefiable soils
(2015)Passive stabilization is a new ground improvement technique against liquefaction. It consists of the low pressure injection of colloidal silica in the pores of a liquefiable soil. After well-controlled time, colloidal ... -
Rarefied gas mixture flow between plates of arbitrary length due to small pressure difference
(2012)The linearized flow of a binary gas mixture between two parallel plates of any length driven by a small pressure difference is numerically solved based on the McCormack kinetic model. In this case the flow is not fully ... -
A theoretical model for the magnetohydrodynamic natural convection of a CNT-water nanofluid incorporating a renovated Hamilton-Crosser model
(2019)The present study pertains to the laminar two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic natural convection in a shallow cavity utilizing a Carbon Nanotube (CNT)-water nanofluid which is internally heated by volumetrically heat ... -
Velocity profiles in a random porous bed
(2021)In this study the velocity distribution of the fluid flow through and over a random porous bed is investigated. The different porous bed and the different porosity influence significantly the form of the velocity profiles. ...
