Authors Chitrapu P., Lund C.R.F., Tsamopoulos J.A. Abstract A two-dimensional model of the growth of filamentous carbon using an iron catalyst is presented. A single catalyst particle in the shape of a pear, producing filament diameters in the range from 30 to 100 nm is considered. The steady-state mass balance […]

Authors Pelekasis N.A., Tsamopoulos J.A., Manolis G.D. Abstract Different formulations of free-surface inviscid flows lead to Fredholm integral equations of the first or second kind. In the present study, these formulations are compared in terms of efficiency and accuracy when different time and space discretization schemes are employed in studying […]
Authors Chen T.-Y., Tsamopoulos J.A., Good R.J. Abstract Equilibrium shapes and the stability of capillary bridges between parallel and nonparallel solid surfaces are determined. Asymptotic and computer-aided techniques from bifurcation theory are used to determine the limits of stability in terms of the minimum volume of fluid in the bridge. […]
Authors Tsamopoulos J., Chen T.-Y., Borkar A. Abstract Small-amplitude oscillations of viscous, capillary bridges are characterized by their frequency and rate of damping. In turn, these depend on the surface tension and viscosity of the liquid, the dimensions of the bridge, the axial and azimuthal wavenumbers of each excited mode […]
