Abstract Experimental results are presented which characterize the dynamic response of homogeneous, fully clamped, rectangular plates to narrow band acoustic excitation and uniform thermal loads. Using time series, pseudo-phase projections, power spectra and auto-correlation functions, small amplitude vibrations are considered about both the pre- and post-critical states. These techniques are then employed to investigate the snap-through response. The results for snap-through suggest that the motion is temporally complex and a Lyapunov exponent calculation confirms that the motion is chaotic. Finally, a snap-through boundary is mapped in the (ω, SPL) parameter space separating the regions of snap-through and no snap-through.

Abstract Models to predict the evolution of the morphology of immiscible liquid-liquid systems and of solid agglomerates dispersion in single-screw extruders were adapted to compute global distributive and dispersive mixing indices. Using these indices, the direct assessment of the mixing ability of a given screw or a comparison of distinct screws becomes readily available. In the case of liquid-liquid systems, the degree of distributive mixing is computed from the extent of deformation of the individual drops, whereas the degree of dispersive mixing is determined by the reduction in drop size. For solid-liquid systems, distributive mixing is quantified by a normalized Shannon entropy, whereas dispersive mixing is defined from the extent of size reduction. The effect of material properties, operating conditions, and geometry of the screw and die is investigated. Finally, the indices are used to determine (via optimization) the operating conditions and the screw geometry that maximize the mixing efficiency.

We investigate numerically the breakup of an axisymmetric jet into drops in liquid-liquid systems, specifically focus on multiple node breakup, where more than one node of the most unstable wave becomes one drop. The unsteady Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible Newtonian fluids are solved with a Front-Tracking / Finite Difference method. Various combinations of the non-dimensional numbers (Re = 80, 160, 320; We = 5, 8; Fr = 4, 8, 32, ∞) are examined for constant ratios of density (ρc, ρj = 1.25) and viscosity (µc, µj = 1). Capillary waves grow on the jet surface and the multiple node breakup is observed in all cases examined. A “shoulder” is observed on the jet right behind the bulb when the double-node breakup occurs. Unlike the breakup of a jet in air, vortical motions in the external fluid affect the breakup process.
