Assessment and validation of liquid breakup models for high-pressure dense diesel sprays
(Springer, 2016-06-01)Liquid breakup in fuel spray and atomization significantly affects the consequent mixture formation, combustion behavior, and emission formation processes in a direct injection diesel engine. In this paper, different models ... -
Entropic Segregation at Surfaces of Polymer Melts
(University of Waterloo, 2018-05-04)Throughout recent years, polymers have been one of the most widely used materials in industry due to their suitability to a vast variety of fields from construction to biomedical and technological utilities. Their extensive ... -
Formation and Field-switching Dynamics of Nematic Droplets
(University of Waterloo, 2017-08-23)Liquid crystals (LCs) refer to a class of materials which have anisotropic properties. They are used in many technological applications ranging from displays to biological sensors. One example of a category of technologically ... -
Simulation of Metal Electrodeposition Using the Kinetic Monte Carlo and Embedded-Atom Methods
(University of Waterloo, 2014-04-23)The effects of the microstructure of metal films on electric component performance and longevity have become increasingly important with the recent advances in nanotechnology. Depending on the application of the metal films ... -
Simulation-based Design of Temperature-responsive Nematic Elastomers
(University of Waterloo, 2017-06-16)Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are a class of polymer networks which involve the incorporation of liquid crystal (LC) molecules into their polymer backbone or side chain. This results in anisotropy in their mechanical, ...
