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,

Correlations between water absorption, electrical resistivity and compressive strength of concrete with different contents of pozzolan

open access: yesRevista ALCONPAT, 2019
This research confronts the following concrete properties: water absorptions (by immersion and capillarity), electrical resistivity and compressive strength. Concrete mixtures with two types of cement were tested.

The laboratory investigation of the capillarity of various dental solutions at three temperature levels [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo
Introduction/Objective. Many oblong micro-spaces of less than 500 μm exist within oral cavity, such as dentine canalicular spaces, gaps, recesses, gingival sulcus etc. Since these spaces are susceptible to food and pathogenic microbe’s accumulation, most

Hand-Held Femtogram Detection of Hazardous Picric Acid with 2 Hydrophobic Ag Nanopillar SERS Substrates and Mechanism of 3 Elasto-Capillarity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Picric acid (PA) is a severe environmental and security risk due to its unstable, toxic, and explosive properties. It is also challenging to detect in trace amounts and in situ because of its highly acidic and anionic character.

Micro-Grooved Pipe Design of Parabolic Trough by Metaheuristic Optimization: An Empirical Comparison

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Pipe design is one of the most significant research lines in the area of parabolic semi-cylindrical solar collectors. The main idea behind pipe design is to increase the capillarity angle by expanding the total area being heated, therefore boosting the ...

Limewashes with Linseed Oil and Its Effect on Water and Salt Transport

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Paints are the protective and aesthetic skin of buildings, so (re) painting is one of the most recurrent maintenance actions. Limewashes have been used since antiquity and are currently of high interest for both conservation and new construction, majorly

Impact of the Dissipation on the Nonlinear Interactions and Turbulence of Gravity-Capillary Waves

open access: yesFluids, 2022
Gravity-capillary waves at the water surface are an obvious example illustrating wave propagation in the laboratory, and also nonlinear wave phenomena such as wave interactions or wave turbulence. However, at high-enough frequencies or small scales (i.e.,
