Gas-solid fluidization technology has been commercialized in many industrial applications
since its implementation in the fluid catalytic cracking process in the early 1940s, however …

Flows of solid particles are known to exhibit a clustering instability—dynamic microstructures
characterized by a dense region of highly concentrated particles surrounded by a dilute …

This study introduces a new point-particle force model that attempts to account for the
hydrodynamic influence of the neighbouring particles in an Eulerian–Lagrangian simulation …

Multiphase chemical reactors with characteristic multiscale structures are intrinsically
discrete at the elemental scale. However, due to the lack of multiscale models and the …

A combined numerical and experimental study of riser hydrodynamics is reported for the fast
fluidisation regime. The experimental data sets are used for validation of the CFD-DEM …

Standard Eulerian–Lagrangian (EL) methods generally employ drag force models that only
represent the mean hydrodynamic force acting upon a particle-laden suspension …

We use particle-resolved direct numerical simulation (PR-DNS) as a model-free physics-
based numerical approach to validate particle acceleration modelling in gas-solid …

We present a physics-informed neural network (PINN) model to predict the hydrodynamic
force and torque fluctuations in a random array of stationary bidisperse spheres. The PINN …

The objective of this study is to understand the dynamics of freely evolving particle
suspensions over a wide range of particle-to-fluid density ratios. The dynamics of particle …
