A Random Walk in Physics: Beyond Black Holes and Time-Travels

A Random Walk in Physics: Beyond Black Holes and Time-Travels by Massimo Cencini , Andrea Puglisi , Davide Vergni , Angelo Vulpiani
English | PDF (True) | 2021 | 220 Pages | ISBN : 3030725308 | 5.4 MB

This book offers an informal, easy-to-understand account of topics in modern physics and mathematics. The focus is, in particular, on statistical mechanics, soft matter, probability, chaos, complexity, and models, as well as their interplay. The book features 28 key entries and it is carefully structured so as to allow readers to pursue different paths that reflect their interests and priorities, thereby avoiding an excessively systematic presentation that might stifle interest. While the majority of the entries concern specific topics and arguments, some relate to important protagonists of science, highlighting and explaining their contributions. Advanced mathematics is avoided, and formulas are introduced in only a few cases. The book is a user-friendly tool that nevertheless avoids scientific compromise. It is of interest to all who seek a better grasp of the world that surrounds us and of the ideas that have changed our perceptions.

Interfacial Fluid Mechanics: A Mathematical Modeling Approach

Interfacial Fluid Mechanics: A Mathematical Modeling Approach by Vladimir S. Ajaev
English | PDF | 2012 | 219 Pages | ISBN : 1461413400 | 3.3 MB

Interfacial Fluid Mechanics: A Mathematical Modeling Approach provides an introduction to mathematical models of viscous flow used in rapidly developing fields of microfluidics and microscale heat transfer. The basic physical effects are first introduced in the context of simple configurations and their relative importance in typical microscale applications is discussed. Then, several configurations of importance to microfluidics, most notably thin films/droplets on substrates and confined bubbles, are discussed in detail. Topics from current research on electrokinetic phenomena, liquid flow near structured solid surfaces,evaporation/condensation, and surfactant phenomena are discussed in the later chapters.

Flow Boiling of a Dilute Emulsion In Smooth and Rough Microgaps

Flow Boiling of a Dilute Emulsion In Smooth and Rough Microgaps by Brandon M. Shadakofsky , Francis A Kulacki
English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 151 Pages | ISBN : 3031277724 | 26.7 MB

This book elucidates heat transfer behavior for boiling of dilute emulsions- mixtures of two immiscible fluids- which has received little attention to date. Of the work completed in this area, the majority has been focused on pool boiling where no mean flow is present, and this book is the first major work to be published regarding flow boiling of emulsions. The book includes a comprehensive review and assessment of research on emulsion-based heat transfer. Recent experiments are reported and analyzed to characterize heat transfer in microgap flow boiling via a systematic investigation into the effects of gap size, mass flux, and volume fraction on the heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop.

Non-Newtonian Microfluidics

Non-Newtonian Microfluidics by Lanju Mei
English | PDF | 2022 | 254 Pages | ISBN : N/A | 80.5 MB

Microfluidics has seen a remarkable growth over the past few decades, with its extensive applications in engineering, medicine, biology, chemistry, etc. Many of these real applications of microfluidics involve the handling of complex fluids such as whole blood, protein solutions, and polymeric solutions which exhibit non-Newtonian characteristics— specifically, viscoelasticity. The elasticity of the non-Newtonian fluids induces intriguing phenomena such as elastic instability and turbulence even at extremely low Reynolds numbers. This is the consequence of the nonlinear nature of the rheological constitutive equations. The nonlinear characteristics of non-Newtonian fluids can dramatically change the flow dynamics, and is useful to enhance mixing at the microscale. Electrokinetics in the context of non-Newtonian fluids are also of significant importance, with their potential applications in micromixing enhancement and bio-particles manipulation and separation. This Special Issue comprises 14 original contributions.
