Introduction -- Planar Particles in Quiescent Fluid -- Facility for Turbulence Generation -- Disks Falling Under Background Turbulence -- Conclusions.

Sommario/riassunto

This book studies the dynamics of 2D objects moving through turbulent fluids. It examines the decay of turbulence over extended time scales, and compares the dynamics of non-spherical particles moving through still and turbulent fluids. The book begins with an introduction to the project, its aims, and its relevance for industrial applications. It then discusses the movement of planar particles in quiescent fluid, and presents the numerous methodologies used to measure it. The book also presents a detailed analysis of the falling style of irregular particles, which makes it possible to estimate particle trajectory and wake morphology based on frontal geometry. In turn, the book provides the results of an analysis of physically constrained decaying turbulence in a laboratory setting. These results suggest that large-scale cut-off in numerical simulations can result in severe bias in the computed turbulent kinetic energy for long waiting times. Combining the main text with a wealth of figures and sketches throughout, the book offers an accessible guide for all engineering students with a basic grasp of fluid mechanics, while the key findings will also be of interest to senior researchers. .

Sommario/riassunto

This book explores the symbiotic relationship between the global business landscape and the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set out in 2015. Highlighting the world's paramount challenges, from climate change to gender equality, it emphasizes our collective stride towards sustainability. The narrative is structured around 17 in-depth case studies that span a plethora of industries, from food and finance to energy and transportation, each exploring an individual SDG. These studies provide a window into how trailblazing companies are intricately embedding the SDGs into their operational blueprints. This volume will be a valuable guide to sustainable business models and practices, fostering a clarion call for students, practitioners, and policymakers to rally towards a greener, brighter future. Anna Sörensson is an Associate Professor at Inland Norway University and Mid Sweden University. She has previously published books, articles, and book chapters drawn from her research in sustainability, tourism, entrepreneurship, and marketing. She is currently research leader for a project about sustainable large scale industrial parks in Europe. Navid Ghannad is an Assistant Professor at Halmstad University, Sweden. He has published in the areas of marketing, entrepreneurship, and strategy. Building on his rich academic foundation, he has also held roles as a policy-maker and has been involved in the initiation and management of various business ventures. .
