      In numerical linear stability investigations, the rates of change of the kinetic and thermal energy of the perturbation flow are often used to identify the dominant mechanisms by which kinetic or thermal energy is exchanged ...

      BAHRANI, S. Amir; ccHAMIDOUCHE, Souria; ccMOAZZEN, Masoud; SECK, Khady; DUC, Caroline; MURADOGLU, Metin; GROTBERG, James B.; ccROMANO, Francesco (Elsevier BV, 2022-02)
      The propagation and rupture of mucus plugs in human lungs is investigated experimentally by injecting synthetic mucus in a pre-wetted capillary tube. The rheology of our test liquid is thoroughly characterized, and four ...

      ccROMANO, Francesco; MURADOGLU, M.; GROTBERG, J. B. (American Physical Society (APS), 2022-09)
      A model of the bronchioles lined by the airway surface liquid is employed to investigate the Plateau-Rayleigh instability that can lead to the occlusion of the airways. This physiologically relevant phenomenon is normally ...

      ERKEN, O.; ccROMANO, Francesco; GROTBERG, J.B.; MURADOGLU, M. (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2022-01)
      Capillary instability of a two-layer liquid film lining a rigid tube is studied computationally as a model for liquid plug formation and closure of human airways. The two-layer liquid consists of a serous layer, also called ...

      ccROMANO, Francesco (MDPI AG, 2021-02)
      A small spherical rigid particle in a cylindrical cavity is considered. The harmonic rotation of the cavity wall drives the background flow characterized by the Strouhal number Str, assumed as the first parameter of our ...

      ccBERETTA, Egidio; ccROMANO, Francesco; SANCINI, Giulio; GROTBERG, James B.; NIEMAN, Gary F.; MISEROCCHI, Giuseppe (Frontiers Media SA, 2021-12)
      This review analyses the mechanisms by which lung fluid balance is strictly controlled in the air-blood barrier (ABB). Relatively large trans-endothelial and trans-epithelial Starling pressure gradients result in a minimal ...

      On many occasions, fan or compressor stages have to face azimuthal flow distortion at inlet, which affects their performance and stability. These flow distortions can be caused by external events or by some particular ...
