      Particle-fluid dynamics under variable gravity conditions 

      Alexandrou, Andreas N.; Lemdiasov, R. A.; Gatsonis, N. A.; Jr, A. Sacco (Affiliation: Mechanical Engineering Department, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA 01609, United StatesAffiliation: Northeastern University, Boston, MA 02111, United StatesCorrespondence Address: Mechanical Engineering Department, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA 01609, United States, 2000)
      Crystals grown from specially prepared liquid solutions have important industrial applications. The efficiency of these crystals is usually a function of their size. Therefore, during the synthesis of the crystals, it is ...

      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 ...
