A dimensionless correlation for the liquid overflow rate from a rising column of foam has been developed that expresses the ratio of liquid to gas superficial velocities as a function of Reynolds, Grashof, and Morton numbers. This correlation is developed using new and previously reported data. An empirical approach i…

We present the first demonstration of red shifting upon nonplanarity in alkylporphyrins using two pure conformations having known structures with identical substituents. The traditional view about the relationship of spectral red shifting to nonplanar deformation in porphyrins has been that the deformation from planar…

A perturbation method is modified to calculate the thermal conductivity of ionic crystals by molecular dynamics simulation. The energy flux and perturbation tensor are formulated so as to contain only phase space variables and a single convergence parameter. The characteristics of the perturbation method are studied u…

The spreading of Newtonian fluids on smooth solid substrates is well understood; the speed of the contact line is given by a competition between capillary driving forces and viscous dissipation, yielding Tanner's law $R \propto t^{1/10}$ . Here we study the spreading of non-Newtonian liquids, focusing on the two most…
