21 Jun Congratulations 🎊 The paper published by Marco Boetti and Lilly Verso in International Journal of Multiphase Flow

They study the motion of inertial solid particles across stratified turbulent/non-turbulent interfaces (STNTI). Previous studies in quiescent stratified layers demonstrated that inertial particles slow down due to an additional force term related to the stratification.They report for the first time a similar effect on inertial...
