Reminiscent capillarity in subnanopores [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Confined fluids in porous media exhibit different behaviors in large and small pores, the crossover between the two regimes being not well understood. Here the authors show, by experiments and simulations, that capillarity is reminiscent even for very ...

Capillarity in Action

open access: yes, 2021
The phenomenon of capillarity can occur during culinary processes because the thermal treatment of animal or plant tissues weakens the material holding together the cells making up the tissues. For all the phenomena for which capillarity, diffusion, osmosis or “imbibition” is considered as the interpretation, the core question is the exchange of matter

Using mesoporous thin films as nano-micro-fluidic tools [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Achieving active control on small amounts of liquids represents a substantial challenge in both scientific and engineering aspects. Imbibition of fluids in bodies with nanoscale dimensions enables the spontaneous propelling of nano-flows because of the ...

Local Solvability for a Compressible Fluid Model of Korteweg Type on General Domains

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
In this paper, we consider a compressible fluid model of the Korteweg type on general domains in the N-dimensional Euclidean space for N≥2. The Korteweg-type model is employed to describe fluid capillarity effects or liquid–vapor two-phase flows with ...

Capillary-Assisted Monitoring of Milk Freshness via a Porous Cellulose-Based Label with High pH Sensitivity

open access: yesFoods, 2023
A cellulose-based matrix for monitoring milk freshness (MF) was produced from rice straw particles (RSPs) in a 0.125–0.150 mm that was bis-quaternized to attach bromocresol purple (BP) as a sensor.

Spiral Thermal Waves Generated by Self-Propelled Camphor Boats

open access: yesCondensed Matter, 2020
Spiral thermal surface waves arising from self-propulsion of the camphor-driven objects are reported. Spiral thermal waves were registered for dissolution and evaporation-guided self-propulsion.

Current advances in capillarity: Theories and applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
As common physical phenomena in porous media, capillarity behaviors exist in many engineering applications and natural science fields. The experimental, theoretical and numerical research on capillarity in porous media has lasted for more than a century,

Pore Structure and Water Transfer in Pietra d’Aspra Limestone: A Neutronographic Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Neutron radiography (NR) was here applied to study the effects of two different commercially available consolidants on the water absorption properties in a particular type of limestone (biocalcarenite), known as Pietra d’Aspra stone, which is one of the ...

Visible Corrosion Damage in Carbonated Reinforced Concrete

open access: yesNordic Concrete Research, 2021
This study discusses visible corrosion damage due to carbonation in concrete balconies and facades. The focus of the study was to find out how the age of the structure, cover depth of concrete, carbonation coefficient, capillarity of concrete and the ...

(Non)local Γ-convergence

open access: yesBruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2020
We present some long-range interaction models for phase coexistence which have recently appeared in the literature, recalling also their relation to classical interface and capillarity problems.
