Entropy driven aggregation of adhesion sites of supported membranes

open access: yes, 2010
We study, by means of mean field calculations and Monte Carlo simulations of a lattice-gas model, the distribution of adhesion sites of a bilayer membrane and a supporting flat surface.

Adhesion Strength of Wood Based Composites Coated with Cellulosic and Polyurethane Paints

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2015
The objective of this study was to determine adhesive strength of particleboard and medium density fiberboard (MDF) finished with two types of paints. Samples were coated using cellulosic and polyurethane based paints. Adhesion strength and coating layer

Influence of matrix toughness and interfacial strength on the toughness of epoxy composites with ductile steel fabric reinforcement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the last decades, several studies have been performed on polymers reinforced with steel cords or wires. However, the diameter of these steel reinforcements was still quite large (200 micron and more).

Effect of Water Temperature on Ice Adhesion Strength Based on Nucleation Theory

open access: yesHangkong gongcheng jinzhan, 2022
Aircraft icing will affect flight safety and even lead to serious flight accidents. Studying the adhesion strength between icing and substrate can provide specific index requirements for the design of aircraft anti-icing and de-icing system.

Exploring Preferences for a Digital Single‐Session Intervention for Adolescent Siblings of Youth With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.

Low Cost, Adhesion Strength Based Cell Sorter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In many in vitro experiments, primary cells are harvested from an animal species to undergo experimental manipulation and subsequent analysis. Cell sorters are a luxury to have after cell harvesting to ensure pure populations of cells.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

PLA/WOOD BIOCOMPOSITES: IMPROVING COMPOSITE STRENGTH BY CHEMICAL TREATMENT OF THE FIBERS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A resol type phenolic resin was prepared for the impregnation of wood particles used for the reinforcement of PLA. A preliminary study showed that the resin penetrates wood with rates depending on the concentration of the solution and on temperature ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

A Fast Numerical Approach for Investigating Adhesion Strength in Fibrillar Structures: Impact of Buckling and Roughness

open access: yesLubricants
This study presents a numerical investigation into the adhesion strength of micro fibrillar structures, incorporating statistical analysis and the effects of excessive pre–load leading to fibril buckling.
