TY - JOUR TI - A MATHEMATICAL MODEL FOR THE FORMATION OF BEADED FIBERS IN ELECTROSPINNING AU - Liu Zhi-Gang AU - He Chun-Hui AU - Zhang Sheng-Zhong AU - Zhao Lei JN - Thermal Science PY - 2015 VL - 19 IS - 4 SP - 1151 EP - 1154 PT - Article AB - Beaded fibers are often observed in electrospinning. However, its formation mechanism is not well understood. A mathematical model for pulsation of the charged jets during spinning is proposed to reveal the phenomenon of beaded fibers, and the main factors for beaded fibers are elucidated.
