Fluidization dynamics of cohesive Geldart B particles. Part II: Pressure fluctuation analysis

The increase of inter-particle cohesive force greatly changes the fluidization dynamics, finally leading to the partial or complete failure of fluidization. However, few studies concern such transition process. This paper investigates the fluidization dynamics of Geldart B particles with a wide-range of cohesive force by analyzing the in-bed...

Insight into Eu redox and Pr³⁺ 5d emission in KSrPO₄ by VRBE scheme construction

A series of Ln-doped KSrPO₄ (Ln = Ce³⁺, Eu³⁺, Eu²⁺, Pr³⁺) phosphors are prepared through a high-temperature solid-state method. The KSrPO₄ compound is confirmed to possess a β-K₂SO₄ structure with the Pnma group by Rietveld refinement, and the temperature...

Current and future trends in topology optimization for additive manufacturing

Manufacturing-oriented topology optimization has been extensively studied the past two decades, in particular for the conventional manufacturing methods, for example, machining and injection molding or casting. Both design and manufacturing engineers have benefited from these efforts because of the close-to-optimal and friendly-to-manufacture...

Application of the Delft Numerical models in the Lower Yellow River

Because of heavy deposition and water shortage, the Yellow River faces the risk of flooding and no-flow since the middle of 1980s. The problem could be solved only by integrated water management. However, Dutch has a long history fighting the flood and gets a lot of experiences in water management, especially river ecosystem recovered after 1993...
