Solvent‐Mediated Dewetting Principles for Cell‐Sized Liposome Formation

Small, EarlyView.
Dynamics of solvent‐mediated dewetting for giant unilamellar liposome formation. Solvent removal, through changing lipid packing and membrane tension, is shown to induce partial dewetting into equilibrium low and high budding angle morphologies. Complete dewetting requires mechanical force, quantified using optical tweezers.

Salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes: Development, physiological functions, and prospects for improving crop salt tolerance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the

A Finite Element Method for a Fourth Order Surface Equation With Application to the Onset of Cell Blebbing

Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2020
A variational problem for a fourth order parabolic surface partial differential equation is discussed. It contains non-linear lower order terms, on which we only make abstract assumptions, and which need to be defined for specified problems.

Entropy Generation Analysis due to Permeable Exponential Stretching in Boundary Layer Flows

Heat Transfer, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 781-796, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Entropy generation represents the irreversible loss of useful energy in thermal–fluid systems, directly reducing efficiency in applications, such as microelectronics cooling, nanofluid‐based heat exchangers, and polymer processing. This study investigates entropy generation in a two‐phase viscoelastic nanofluid flow over a permeable ...

Domain Growth, Budding, and Fission in Phase Separating Self-Assembled Fluid Bilayers

, 2005
A systematic investigation of the phase separation dynamics in self-assembled multi-component bilayer fluid vesicles and open membranes is presented. We use large-scale dissipative particle dynamics to explicitly account for solvent, thereby allowing for
