A review of research on cylindrical particulate flows

The study of cylindrical particulate flows has wide industrial applicability hence received much attention. The purpose of the present paper is to provide a review on our research over the last few years. The research is related to the motion of cylindrical particles in mixing layer, pipe flow, channel flow, converging channel flow; the sedimentation of cylindrical particles in a Newtonian fluid; the structural feature and rheological property of cylindrical particulate suspensions; and the hydrodynamic instability of cylindrical particulate suspensions.
