Abstract: The motion of inviscid and Newtonian jets issuing from elliptical orifices is analyzed. The analysis is not confined to small departures of the jet free surface from a circular cylindrical ...

Abstract: One of the most important features in industrial fiber-drawing processes is the friction between filament tow and draw rollers, because it is what creates the tension in the fiber that performs ...

Abstract: The standard practice in the literature for modeling materials processing in which changes in temperature induce significant volume changes is based on the a posteriori substitution of a ...

Abstract: We derive the equations of motion for an extensible belt on a pulley in which all effects of inertia, including (for the first time) acceleration due to stretching, are retained in the ...

Abstract: We investigate free-surface oscillating jets with elliptical cross section, focusing on behavior associated with decaying surface tension. Previous one-dimensional equations for an oscillating jet ...
