Capillarity at the nanoscale [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Society Reviews, 2010
In this critical review we treat the phenomenon of capillarity in nanoscopic confinement, based on application of the Young-Laplace equation. In classical capillarity the curvature of the meniscus is determined by the confining geometry and the macroscopic contact angle.

Pulmonary capillaritis

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2000
Vasculitis, inflammation, and necrosis of blood vessels can involve any size or type of vessel in the pulmonary vasculature, including the capillaries, so-called capillaritis. Although pulmonary capillaritis is a histopathologic diagnosis that is not pathognomonic of a specific disorder, it usually signals the presence of an underlying systemic ...

Pulmonary Capillaritis

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2004
Pulmonary capillaritis is defined as a histopathologic pattern of alveolar wall inflammation that leads to the disruption of the integrity of alveolar-capillary basement membranes and flooding of the alveoli with blood. The clinical presentation is that of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH).

On the Equations of Capillarity

Journal of Mathematical Fluid Mechanics, 2001
The author derives an interesting generalized capillary equation under global phenomenologial assumptions without recourse to consideration of intermolecular attractions. This theory includes compressible liquids, which admit a pressure-density relation. In this case, the author arrives under the pressure-density assumption \(\rho=\rho_0+\chi(p-p_0)\),

Unilateral linear capillaritis

Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 1992
We present four cases of a distinctive type of pigmented purpuric eruption occurring in a striking linear and pseudo-dermatomal distribution in young males. Whilst these cases share some of the clinical and histological features of other pigmented purpuric dermatoses, they are not readily classified with any of the entities so far defined in this group

Capillarity and Gravity

2004
Liquids display rather peculiar properties. They have the ability to defeat gravity and create capillary bridges (see Figure 2.1), move up inclined planes, or rise in very small capillary tubes.1 Moreover, drops may lose their spherical shape under the influence of gravity.

The mathematical theory of capillarity. I

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1961
Abstract The problems of static meniscus formation and shallow wave motion on incompressible, inviscid fluids are reviewed. Some new results on static menisci are presented.

Adaptation of Muscle Capillarity

1985
The single most important physiological factor affecting the capillarity of skeletal and cardiac muscle is normal growth. In both skeletal and cardiac muscle, increases in body size and weight are associated with increases in the cross sectional area of existing fibers and decreases in capillary density which result in longer diffusion distances (Aquin
