      Sedimentation of heavy crystal particles under microgravity conditions 

      Alexandrou, Andreas N.; Gatsonis, N. A.; Shi, H.; Sacco, A. (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA, 1998)
      Crystals grown from specially prepared liquid solutions have important industrial applications such as in biochemical processes, refining etc. The efficiency of these crystals is usually a function of their size. Therefore, ...

      A two-phase fluid model of crystal settling under variable gravity 

      Alexandrou, Andreas N.; Shi, H.; Gatsonis, N. A.; Jr, A. Sacco (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA, 1999)
      A two-phase fluid model of crystal particle motion in a liquid is presented. The model includes a liquid and a solid phase as continua and forces due to pressure, viscous stresses, variable gravity and fluid drag. The model ...
