Hydrodynamics of impinging liquid jets used in cleaning
… of CIP systems. The effect of jet length and wall curvature were explored. The flow patterns generated by the impingement of a coherent, turbulent, horizontal water jet on a flat, vertical target were characterised as a benchmark and compared with existing models that predict the shape of the …

Contributions to the Understanding of Turbulent Boundary Layers Over Curved Walls
… to examine the concurrent pressure gradient and wall curvature effects, which are commonplace in engineering. Three particle image velocimetry (PIV) configurations were employed to measure the boundary layer in detail: one spanned the entire afterbody, another had narrow strips sampled at 16 kHz, …

Classification of atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability by mechano-radiomics
… the carotid bifurcation, which results in high wall shear stress. High structural stresses within the artery wall caused by the blood flow are directly associated with risk of plaque rupture. Radiomics is an emerging technique to evaluate tissue heterogeneity. Whilst extensively investigated in …

Structural Design Inspired by the Multiscale Mechanics of the Lightweight and Energy Absorbent Cuttlebone
… including the 3D asymmetric shape of individual walls, the wall assembly patterns, and the long-range structural gradient of walls across the entire cuttlebone (ca. 40 chambers). The acquired 3D structural information enables systematic finite-element simulations, which further reveal the …
