Authors

Direct numerical simulations reveal how anisotropic flow alters flocculation and aggregation in cohesive particles.

Flocculation rates and relaxation amplitudes are influenced by anisotropic flow fields, demonstrating significant variability.
Power law relations exist between flocculation metrics and the Stokes number ($St$) and the coefficient of restitution ($Co$).
The study presents particle-resolved simulations focusing on cohesive behaviors under different density ratios vs flow regimes.
Findings indicate that local flocculation parameters can be scaled with bulk values, linking micro to macro behaviors in turbulent flows.

Leonelli et al. (2025) studied this question.
