I study particle motion in fluid and granular flows. We have developed tools for measuring the rotation and alignment of anisotropic particles as they move both laminar and highly turbulent fluid flow. We use 3D printing to fabricate particles in a wide range of shapes and reconstruct their orientation and motion in 3D space from images from multiple high speed cameras. Of particularly interest recently are particles that couple translation to rotation which typically involve chiral particles and lead to questions about how to quantify chiral geometry.
