<p>Soil, i.e. the natural outer layer of the lithosphere and an important component of many ecosystems, may be subjected to various degradation processes dependent on different factors. One of the forms of degradation is water erosion, where the first stage is the splash phenomenon. This process is caused by water drops hitting the soil surface during rainfall, which results in detachment and ejection of splashed material and transport thereof over different distances. The aim of this study was to present the application of the high-speed camera technique for investigations of surface phenomena (effects) influenced by the impact of a single water-drop onto the soil surface.</p><p>The measurements were conducted on types of soil differentiated in terms of texture and variants of initial moisture content, which helped to observe different aspects of the soil splash phenomenon. Water drops with a diameter of 4.2 mm fell on soil samples with various kinetic energy values depending on the height of the drop fall (up to 7m). Phantom Miro M310 high-speed cameras were used to observe the effects of the drop impact. The devices registered images with a speed of 3260 fps (frames per second) at the highest available resolution (1280x800 pixels). The following phenomena were observed: I) ejection of splashed particles (including solid soil particles, water droplets, solid particles within the water sheath); II) crown formation – when the drop impacting onto wet soil surface forces the liquid layer to rise up and form a crown (important for the mode and amount of transferred material); III) micro-crater formation – the deformation of the surface and formation of a shallow pool after the drop impact.          </p><p> </p><p>This work was partly financed from the National Science Centre, Poland; project no. 2018/31/N/ST10/01757.</p><p> </p><p>References:</p><ol><li>Beczek M., Ryżak M., Sochan A., Mazur R., Bieganowski A.: The mass ratio of splashed particles during raindrop splash phenomenon on soil surface.

A drop that falls into a deep liquid can either coalesce with the receiving liquid and form a vortex ring or splash. Which phenomenon actually occurs depends on the impact conditions. When the impact conditions are gradually changed the transition between coalescence and splashing proceeds via a number of intermediate steps. These are studied by means of high-speed photography of the normal impact of water drops on a plane water surface. The characteristics of different flows that appear in the transitional regime and possible mechanisms causing these flows are discussed in detail. The phenomena considered include the rise of thick jets and the ejection of high-rising thin jets out of the impact crater, the entrainment of gas bubbles, crater dynamics, crown formation and the generation of splash droplets. Finally, a classification of the phenomena characteristic of the transitional regime is given.

The increased use of mobile appliances such as mobile phones and navigation systems in today’s society has resulted in an increase in reliability issues related to drop performance. Mobile appliances are dropped several times during their lifespan and the product is required to survive common drop accidents. A widely accepted method to assess the drop reliability of microelectronics on board-level is the drop impact test. This test has been standardized by international councils such as Joint Electron Device Engineering Council and is widely adopted throughout the industry. In this research the solder loading is investigated by combining high-speed camera measurements of several drop impact tests with verified finite element models. These simulation models are developed in order to gain an insight on the loading pattern of solder joints based on interconnect layout, drop conditions, and product specifications prior to physical prototyping. Deflections and frequencies during drop testing are measured using a high-speed camera setup. The high-speed camera experiments are performed on two levels: machine level (rebounds with and without a catcher) and product level (with different levels of energy and different pulse times). Parametric (dynamic and quasistatic) 3D models are developed to predict the drop impact performance. The experimental results are used to verify and enhance the simulation models, e.g., by tuning the damping parameters. As a result, the verified models can be used to determine the location of the critical solder joint and to obtain estimates of the solder lifetime performance.

Recent developments in the production of technical flax fabrics allow the use of sustainable natural fibres to replace synthetic fibres in the manufacture of structural composite parts. Natural fibre reinforced biocomposites have been proven to satisfy design and structural integrity requirements but impact strength has been identified as one of their limitations. In this paper, hybridisation of the biocomposite with a metal layer has been investigated as a potential method to improve the impact resistance of natural fibre composites. The impact response of biocomposites made of flax-epoxy is investigated experimentally using a high velocity particle impactor. A high-speed camera setup was used to observe the rear surface of the plates during impact. Digital Image Correlation (DIC) of the high speed camera images was used for full-field strain measurement and to study the initiation and propagation of damage during the impact. The different modes of damage in the hybrid laminate were identified by postimpact analysis of the section of the damaged composite plate using optical microscopy. The study shows the difference in impact response for different material combinations and configurations. The hybrid construction was shown to improve the impact resistance of the flax composite.

To explore the deflagration possibility of the warship cabin filled with fuel oil under impact of high-speed fragments in the condition of room temperature, experiments were carried out employing the small aluminium oilcans filled with fuel oil. Response processes of the oilcans were observed with the help of a high-speed camera. The disintegration as well as flying scattering of the oilcans were analyzed. The reasons for atomization of the fuel oils were presented. Finally, the deflagration possibility of warship oil cabin was analyzed. Results show that the pressure inside the oilcan is quite great under the impact of the high-speed fragment, which makes the oilcan disintegration and flying scattering. Simultaneously, fuel oils inside the oilcans are atomized quickly followed by ejected in front and back directions. Under the same condition as in present tests, deflagration will not occur for fuel oils used by warships. Experimental results will provide valuable references for the deflagration analysis of warship fuel oil cabins subjected to the impact of high-velocity fragments.


In the initial stage of liquid-drop impact, the contact region expands faster than the wave speed in the liquid. This causes compressible behaviour in the liquid, and high transient pressures. High-velocity jetting results when the wave motion in the liquid overtakes the expanding contact edge and moves up the free surface of the drop. The detailed pressure fields in this early time history of impact have been calculated by Lesser ( Proc . R . Soc . Lond . 377, 289 (1981)) for both two and three-dimensional liquid masses and for targets of finite admittance. An important result is that the edge pressures exceed the central ‘water-hammer’ pressure 3ρ 0 CU i and at the time of shock-detachment approach ca . 3ρ 0 CU i . At this stage the edge pressures, for both spherical drops and two-dimensional liquid wedges, depend only on the impact velocity and the instantaneous angle between the liquid and solid surfaces. This suggests that the essential features of the early stage of liquid impact can be usefully studied by producing impacts with two-dimensional liquid wedges, and predicted data for pressures, shock angles and velocities are presented. Experiments are described for producing impacts with preformed shapes by using water-gelatine mixtures and observing the impact events with high-speed photography. The results confirm the main features of the model and give information on edge pressures, jetting, cavitation in the liquid and the effect of the admittance of the solid. The relevance of the results to the damage and erosion of materials subjected to liquid impact is discussed. In particular, it is possible to explain the apparently low damage-threshold of some materials, the form of damage and its development with repeated impact. The study highlights the importance of the detailed surface geometry in the region of contact.

Abstract Background We investigated the biofilm removal effects of LAI using a pig model, focusing on the impact of the fiber tip position, and used a high-speed camera to observe the occurrence and positioning of the cavitation associated with laser irradiation. Methods A total of 16 roots of deciduous mandibular second premolars from 4 pigs were used. After a pulpectomy, the canals were left open for two weeks and sealed for 4 weeks to induce intraradicular biofilm. Then, root canal irrigation was performed with Er:YAG laser activation. The fiber tip was inserted at two different positions, i.e., into the root canal in the intracanal LAI group and into the pulp chamber in the coronal LAI group. Intracanal needle irrigation with saline or 5% NaOCl was utilized in the positive control and CNI groups. SEM and qPCR were carried out to evaluate treatment efficacy. For qPCR, ANOVA and a Tukey-Kramer post hoc test were performed with α = 0.05. A high-speed camera was used to observe the generation of cavitation bubbles and the movement of the induced bubbles after laser irradiation. Results The intracanal and coronal LAI groups showed significantly lower amounts of bacteria than either the positive control or CNI groups. There was no significant difference found between the intracanal and coronal LAI groups. SEM images revealed opened dentinal tubules with the destruction of biofilm in both LAI groups. High-speed camera images demonstrated cavitation bubble production inside the root canal after a single pulse irradiation pulse. The generated bubbles moved throughout the entire internal multi-rooted tooth space. Conclusions Coronal LAI can generate cavitation in the root canal with a simply placed fiber inside the pulp chamber, leading to effective biofilm removal. This method could thus contribute to the future development of endodontic treatments for refractory apical periodontitis caused by intraradicular biofilm.

Summary Hole cleaning is a concern in directional and horizontal well drilling operations where drill cuttings tend to settle in the lower annulus section. Laboratory-scale experiments were performed with different non-Newtonian fluids in a 6.16-m-long, 114.3- × 63.5-mm transparent annulus test section to investigate cuttings transport behavior. This experimental study focused on understanding the cuttings transport mechanism in the annulus section with high-speed imaging technology. The movement of cuttings in the inclined annular section was captured with a high-speed camera at 2,000 frames/sec. Also, cuttings bed movement patterns at different fluid velocities and inner pipe rotations were captured with a digital single-lens reflex video camera. The electrical resistance tomography (ERT) system was used to quantify the cuttings volume fraction in the annulus. Different solid bed heights and cuttings movements were observed based on fluid rheology, fluid velocity, and inner pipe rotation. The mechanistic three-layer cuttings transport model was visualized with the experimental procedure. This study showed that solid bed height is significantly reduced with an increase in the inner pipe rotation. This study also identified that cuttings bed thickness largely depends on fluid rheology and wellbore inclination. The image from the high-speed camera identified a downward trend of some rolling particles in the annulus caused by gravitational force at a low mud velocity. Visual observation from a high-speed camera identified a helical motion of solid particles when the drillpipe is in contact with solid particles and rotating at a higher rev/min. Different cuttings movement patterns such as: rolling, sliding, suspension, helical movement, and downward movement were identified from the visualization of a high-speedcamera.

Abstract Foam pads are commonly used in sports and military helmet for energy absorption, form-fitting and comfort. Both for low velocity and high velocity applications, their rate-dependent mechanical properties need to be characterized to understand their ability to effectively modulate the transmitted stress pulse. Impact experiments were conducted on bilayer helmet pads at a range of velocities covering low to medium rates up to ∼7000/s. Images from high-speed camera were used to construct x-T diagrams to measure the shock speeds from the impact experiments. Numerical simulations were carried out to validate a foam pad model and to understand experimental uncertainties. The scatter in the measured shock speeds was found to be related to the scatter in the material properties.

Abstract The presence of high rotating speeds and weights, the corrosiveness of water-based drilling muds, and high-speed mud with embedded cuttings, exposing drill string components to severe wear and corrosion that reduce their service life. The drill pipe erosion, abrasive wear and corrosion depend on properties of drilled cuttings and drilling fluids. Any variation in these properties leads to change in pipe degradation rate. There is a need to study the effect of individual factors, for expecting the drill pipe series life and to find a solution to this challenging problem. This research aims to evaluate the influence of real rock cuttings sizes and concentration as well as we investigate the effect of base fluid type on the erosion-corrosion rate. Actual drilled cuttings have been sieved to get three sizes of erodent cuttings; namely, 0.841 to 3.3 mm. Experiments are done with three sand concentrations (5%, 10% and 15%). The rate of erosion-corrosion of the drill pipe specimens is measured as the loss of weight per unit surface area per unit time under the dynamic action of solid particles. The eroded surfaces of the specimens are examined using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to visualise the impact of the drill cuttings at various conditions. It is seen that the rate of corrosion/erosion decreases with the increase of drilled cuttings concentration. Also, high erosion-corrosion rate is detected in situation of large drill cuttings particles. In this research, we explored a novel simple technique to simulate pipe erosion-corrosion in a reservoir-like environment. Furthermore, this paper proposed a new approach to control drill pipe erosion-corrosion by using SiO2-nanofluid.
