A numerical dynamic-aerodynamic interface for simulating the separation dy­n­a­m­ic­s of co­n­­s­t­r­a­i­ned strap-on boosters jettisoned in the atmosphere is presented. A 6-DOF multi body dynamic solver ،using Constraint For­ce Equation Methodology is coupled with a numerical time dependent Euler flow solver. An automatic dyna­m­i­­c mesh updating proc­e­d­ure is employed using smoothing and l...

The separation of two different types of multi-walled carbon nanotubes is studied in a dielectrophoresis-based microchannel system in seven different solvents as the suspending medium.  A simple model was developed to predict the behavior of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the above mentioned system. Then, the equations of motion for the multi-walled carbon nanotubes in that system were in...

This paper attempts the well-known regularized gamma distribution function to represent the separation efficiency of particle segregation in gravity concentrators. The model has four parameters that are evaluated by a least square fit between the model estimate and the measured data. The model takes into account the bivariate effects of particle size and particle density to define the size-dens...

toluidine blue o (tbo) is a cationic dye which is extensively used in the industries. in the present paper a simple and efficient wet chemical method was introduced for removal of tbo from waste aqueous solution. magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes were synthesized using commercially available multi-wall carbon nanotubes and magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles which were examined for removal o...

This paper describes a simple microfluidic sorting system that can perform size profiling and continuous mass-dependent separation of particles through combined use of gravity (1 g) and hydrodynamic flows capable of rapidly amplifying sedimentation-based separation between particles. Operation of the device relies on two microfluidic transport processes: (i) initial hydrodynamic focusing of par...

This paper reports the results of tests on Indiana gravels ranging from good to poor in field performance in Portland cement concrete. The gravels were separated by heavy liquid flotation into various specific gravity ranges. The gravel fractions thus obtained were tested to deter­ mine absorption, specific gravity, degree of saturation, lithologic compo­ sition and durability in air entrained ...
