Influence of Downstream Control and Limited Depth on Flow Hydrodynamics of Impinging Buoyant Jets
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2003-06)
Much study has been performed on the mixing properties of submerged, turbulent buoyant jets. It is safe to say that the problem of estimating dilution rates in vertical buoyant jets spreading in an `infinitely deep' ambient ...
Effects of Organic Base Chemistry on Interfacial Tension, Wettability, and Capillary Pressure in Multiphase Subsurface Waste Systems
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2000-01)
The presence of surfactants may have profound effects on the transport of organic contaminants in multiphase systems. It is a common practice, however, to model the subsurface migration of liquids independently of the ...
Multifunctional layer-by-layer carbon nanotube–polyelectrolyte thin films for strain and corrosion sensing
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2007-04-01)
Since the discovery of carbon nanotubes, researchers have been fascinated by their mechanical and electrical properties, as well as their versatility for a wide array of applications. In this study, a carbon nanotube–pol ...
Spatial conductivity mapping of carbon nanotube composite thin films by electrical impedance tomography for sensing applications
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2007-08-08)
This paper describes the application of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to demonstrate the multifunctionality of carbon nanocomposite thin films under various types of environmental stimuli. Carbon nanotube (CNT) ...
Development, testing and demonstration of a portable submersible miniature particle imaging velocimetry device
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2007-08-01)
A portable underwater particle image velocimetry (PIV) device has been developed, tested and demonstrated. The underwater PIV uses a 532 nm battery-powered 90 mW continuous laser. The laser beam is pulsed via a camera-synchronized ...
