  1. 1. Fluid Dynamics of a Wurster-type Fluidized Bed - A Numerical and Experimental Study

    Author : Anna Magnusson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; optical probe; frictional stress; fluidized bed; Wurster bed; kinetic theory;

    Abstract : The fluid dynamics of a Wurster bed, a fluidized bed used in the pharmaceutical industry for the coating of small particles or pellets, is investigated numerically and experimentally. The main objective of the thesis is to obtain greater knowledge of the flow properties in the Wurster bed. READ MORE

  2. 2. Fluid Dynamics and Granular Growth in High Shear Wet Granulation

    Author : Anders Darelius; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Coalescence kernel; Frictional Stress Models; Laser Doppler Anemometry; Population balances; CFD; EFD; High shear granulation; High speed imaging; Multi-dimensional; Multiphase flows;

    Abstract : High shear wet granulation is a key step in the manufacturing of tablets in the pharmaceutical industry. From the pharmaceutical industry’s point of view, there is a desire for predictive quantitative process models to be able to make in-silico process and scale-up simulations, which would shorten and reduce the cost of technology transfer from laboratory scale to manufacturing scale in drug development.

  3. 3. Turbulent Flow in Constricted Blood Vessels : Quantification of Wall Shear Stress Using Large Eddy Simulation

    Author : Roland Gårdhagen; Matts Karlsson; Toste Länne; Leif Rune Hellevik; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The genesis of atherosclerosis has previously been shown to be affected by the frictional load from the blood on the vessel wall, called the wall shear stress (WSS). Assessment of WSS can therefore provide important information for diagnoses, intervention planning, and follow‐up. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modeling of Elasticity and Damping for Filled Elastomers

    Author : Per Erik Austrell; Byggnadsmekanik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; rheological models; contact-free strain measurement; modified hardness test; solid dumbbell test specimen; mechanical conditioning; strain energy plot; hyperelasticity; carbon-black-filled rubbers; amplitude dependence; multiaxial viscoplastic model; Building construction; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : Elasticity and damping are significant properties of rubber, taken advantage of in engineering applications. It is therefore important that the constitutive model accurately captures these aspects of the mechanical behavior. READ MORE

  5. 5. Numerical models to simulate wear and friction-induced heating in rough surface contacts

    Author : Jamal Choudhry; Roland Larsson; Andreas Almqvist; Ramin Aghababaei; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Abstract : The study of friction and wear is a crucial element in the effort to reduce carbon footprint in technology. It is evident that friction and wear are responsible for a significant amount of global energy losses, emphasizing the need for research on the topic. READ MORE
