We study numerically the dynamics of jets and drops in a microcapillary coflow device. The co-flow stream encounters different flow regimes, including dripping, jetting. Using a level-set/finite element axysimmetric numerical simulation, we study the dynamics of breakup of a jet subject to flow rate perturbations. A scaling law for the width of the unperturbed jet is presented and compared to e...

In the context of a global competitive environment, industrial companies have to pursue continuous performance improvement, leading to the popularity of Lean Manufacturing throughout the world. Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) is considered the relevant performance measurement tool, which is able to take into account a machine’s availability, performance and quality. Therefore, many firms ...

The purpose of this study is to model the flow movement in an idealized dam-break configuration. One-dimensional and two-dimensional motion of a shallow flow over a rigid inclined bed is considered. The resulting shallow water equations are solved by finite volumes using the Roe and HLL schemes. At first, the one-dimensional model is considered in the development process. With conservative fini...

At the beginning of 1820s. Marc Seguin and his brothers started negotiations with French government for the construction of a railway line from the Saint-Etienne coal field to the Rhone valley and the city of Lyon. This railway is the first French railway using locomotives. Because there are few papers and publications on the history of this important railway, the writers have studied about the...
