NSF Young Investigator

由国家科学基金会青年研究者奖资助，将进行非牛顿流体力学的研究。该方法是实验性的，通过使用激光多普勒测速和数字粒子图像测速的综合应用。与聚合物和悬浮液流动中的不稳定性有关的各种流体动力学问题将被探讨。聚合物工艺，如挤出、纺丝和涂层，受到各种形式的不稳定性的影响，需要一个更准确和现实的基础来预测和控制这些系统的稳定性能。＊＊＊

9358469 McKinley Funded from a National Science Foundation Young Investigator Award, research in Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics will be conducted. The approach is experimental, through the use of integrated applications of Laser Doppler Velocimetry and Digital Particle Image Velocimetry. Various fluid dynamic issues related to instabilities in the flow of polymers and suspensions will be explored. Polymer processes such as extrusion, spinning, and coating are subject to various forms of instabilities, and a more accurate and realistic basis is needed to predict and control stable performance of these systems. ***
