Application of the Lattice Boltzmann Method to Many Particle Dispersions
We have discussed the feasibility of the lattice Boltzmann method as a simulation technique with multi-body hydrodynamic interactions for many particle dispersions.

The processing of national petroleums causes many operational problems due to the asphaltene aggregation phenomena. To evaluate the behavior of these phenomena, a study based on optical scan technique was carried out to understand the behavior of pure ...

Formation of non-sessile, auto-aggregated cells of Staphylococcus aureus contributes to surface colonization and biofilm formation, hence play a major role in the early establishment of infection and in tolerance to antimicrobials.

Dispersion state phase diagram of citrate-coated metallic nanoparticles in saline solutions
Citrate-stabilized metallic colloids are key materials towards chemosensing and catalysis applications. Here the authors introduce a new theoretical model to estimate how the stoichiometry of citrate molecules absorbed onto spherical metallic ...

Aggregation bias and its drivers in large‐scale flood loss estimation: A Massachusetts case study
Large‐scale estimations of flood losses are often based on spatially aggregated inputs. This makes risk assessments vulnerable to aggregation bias, a well‐studied, sometimes substantial outcome in analyses that model fine‐grained spatial phenomena at ...

Fractality à la carte: a general particle-cluster aggregation model [PDF]
Aggregation phenomena are ubiquitous in nature, encompassing out-of-equilibrium processes of fractal pattern formation, important in many areas of science and technology. Despite their simplicity, foundational models such as diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) or ballistic aggregation (BA), have contributed to reveal the most basic mechanisms that give

A series composed of a tetra-, a tris- and a bisphosphonated ligand based on a pyridine scaffold (L(4) , L(3) and L(2) , respectively) was studied within the frame of lanthanide (Ln) coordination.

Role of clay constituents in stone decay processes
Stone alterability/durability is depending upon a number of intrinsic and extrinsic factors among which "clay minerals" constituents, either diffused throughout the stone framework or as coating-filling of void spaces, can play an important role ...

Aggregation pattern transitions by slightly varying the attractive/repulsive function. [PDF]
Among collective behaviors of biological swarms and flocks, the attractive/repulsive (A/R) functional links between particles play an important role. By slightly changing the cutoff distance of the A/R function, a drastic transition between two distinct ...

Scaling Theory for Migration-Driven Aggregate Growth [PDF]
We give a comprehensive rate equation description for the irreversible growth of aggregates by migration from small to large aggregates. For a homogeneous rate K(i;j) at which monomers migrate from aggregates of size i to those of size j, that is, K(ai;aj) ~ a^{lambda} K(i,j), the mean aggregate size grows with time as t^{1/(2-lambda)} for lambda<2 ...
