This review is motivated by the fast progress in our understanding of the physics of particle-
laden turbulence in the last decade, partly due to the tremendous advances of measurement …

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 …

When very small particles are suspended in a fluid in motion, they tend to follow the flow.
How such tracer particles are mixed, transported, and dispersed by turbulent flow has been …

Numerical simulations are extensively used to investigate the motion of suspended particles
in a fluid and their influence on the dynamics of the overall flow. Contexts range from the …

The dynamics of heavy particles suspended in turbulent flows is of fundamental importance
for a wide range of questions in astrophysics, atmospheric physics, oceanography, and …

Sedimentation of a dispersed solid phase is widely encountered in applications and
environmental flows, yet little is known about the behaviour of finite-size particles in …

Drag laws for particles in fluids are often expressed in terms of the undisturbed fluid velocity,
defined as the fluid velocity a particle sees before its disturbance develops in the fluid. In two …

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 …

The history force is one of the hydrodynamic forces that act on a particle moving through a
fluid. It is an integral over the full time history of the particle's motion and significantly …

We study the settling of finite-size rigid spheres in sustained homogeneous isotropic
turbulence (HIT) by direct numerical simulations using an immersed boundary method to …
