A theoretical and experimental investigation of drop motion in rotating fluids is presented. The theory describing the vertical on-axis translation of an axisymmetric rigid body through a rapidly rotating low-viscosity fluid is extended to the case of a buoyant deformable fluid drop of arbitrary viscosity. In the case that inertial and viscous effects are negligible within the bulk external flo...

We derive the shape equations for axisymmetric vesicles and show that they are identical to the general shape equation [Ou-Yang Zhong-Can and W. Helfrich, Phys. Rev. A 39, 5280 (1989)] specialized to axisymmetry. We consider three difFerent topologies (an axisymmetric membrane segment suspended between two circular rings and closed vesicles of spherical and toroidal topology). We point out that...

there are mainly two methods of deep drawing analysis; experimental and analytical/numerical. experimental analysis can be useful in analyzing the process to determine the process parameters that produce a defect free product, and the analytical/numerical modeling can be used to model and analyze the process through all stages of deformation. this approach is less time consuming and more econom...

An image-based machine learning (ML) method is introduced to predict the surface tension of an ethanol-water pendant drop made unknown composition. In contrast previous neural-network based predictors that rely on using either simplified molecular-input line-entry system or experimentally measured values, present deep neural network model directly predicts tensions arbitrary shapes at any stage...

In general, deep drawing products have various cross-section shapes such as cylindrical, rectangular and nonaxisymmetric shapes. The application of the surface area calculation to non-axisymmetric deep drawing process has not been published yet. In this research, a surface area calculation for non-axisymmetric deep drawing products with elliptical shape was constructed for a design of blank sha...

stretching process of sheet metals in both cases of axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric is analyzed. a rigid-plastic, normal anisotrop material is assumed and large strain formulation is applied. triangular elements are used and stiffness equations of elements are obtained from virtual work principle. these nonlinear equations are linearized by newton-raphsons method and are solved by gaussian el...

The electrowetting process is commonly used to handle very small amounts of liquid on a solid surface. This process can be modelled mathematically with the help of the shape optimization theory. However, solving numerically the resulting shape optimization problem is a very complex issue, even for reduced models that occur in simplified geometries. Recently, the second author obtained convincin...
