Power generating technology based on renewable energy resources will definitely become
a new trend of future energy utilization. Numerical simulations on air flow, heat transfer and …

Stress relaxation, dynamics, and plasticity of transient polymer networks

F Meng, RH Pritchard, EM Terentjev - Macromolecules, 2016 - ACS Publications
We propose a theoretical framework for dealing with a transient polymer network
undergoing small deformations, based on the rate of breaking and reforming of network …

[HTML][HTML] Rheology of vitrimers

F Meng, MO Saed, EM Terentjev - Nature Communications, 2022 - nature.com
We describe the full rheology profile of vitrimers, from small deformation (linear) to large
deformation (non-linear) viscoelastic behaviour, providing concise analytical expressions to …

CFD analysis for solar chimney power plants

HF Fasel, F Meng, E Shams, A Gross - Solar energy, 2013 - Elsevier
Solar chimney power plants are investigated numerically using ANSYS Fluent and an in-
