This work reviews state of the art representative volume element (RVE) generation
techniques for heterogeneous materials. To this end, we present a systematic classification …

Protective masks–worn properly-have become the key to wither away the COVID-19
pandemic. Nowadays, the vast majority of these masks are made of nonwoven fabrics. High …

Full 3D particle filtration modeling at low pressures considering slip/transition/free molecular
flow regime, particle–fiber interactions, air/particle slip, sieve and homogenous flow field has …

Virtual 3-D geometries resembling the internal microstructure of electrospun fibrous
materials are generated in this work to simulate the pressure drop and collection efficiency …

Determining permeability of fibrous media is of great importance to many industries. While
there are several 2-D and 3-D analytical models developed for predicting the permeability of …

Fibrous filters and mist eliminators are widely used in a range of manufacturing and process
industries worldwide to remove liquid mists from gas streams, thereby coalescing them to …

In this work, 3-D structures resembling nanofiber (df< 200nm) filter media are simulated and
challenged with nanoparticle aerosols at reduced operating pressures. For the range of fiber …

The development of scientifically based fibrous porous networks has been gaining
momentum due to their potential advantages in a wide spectrum of end-uses. Flow of fluid …

In order to obtain the comprehensive filtration information, such as the deposition
morphology of particles, evolutions of the instantaneous pressure drop and efficiency, 3-D …

Fibrous media is the most common method of filtration, which is generally characterized by
its pressure drop and filtration efficiency. In this work, the computational fluid dynamics …
