Controlling Normal Stiffness in Droplet-Based Linear Bearings
While capillary forces are negligible relative to gravity at the macroscale, they provide adequate force to effectively manipulate millimeter to micro meter objects.

Wetting considerations in capillary rise and imbibition in closed square tubes and open rectangular cross-section channels [PDF]
The spontaneous capillary-driven filling of microchannels is important for a wide range of applications. These channels are often rectangular in cross-section, can be closed or open, and horizontal or vertically orientated.

Analytical Calculation of Falling Droplets from Cylindrical Capillaries
Existing investigations to estimate different properties of falling droplets are based on empirical data or complex mathematical approaches. This paper presents a new simple analytical approach to calculate selected properties of droplets, in particular ...

A Homogeneous Capillary Tube Model - Comprehensive Parameter Studies Using Isobutane As Refrigerant [PDF]
In this work a homogenous capillary tube model using R600a (isobutane) as refrigerant is presented. The capillary tube model underlies common restrictions; it is assumed to be adiabatic, straight with constant cross section and operates under steady ...

Stop Calling Me Cavernous Hemangioma! A Literature Review on Misdiagnosed Bony Vascular Anomalies
Vascular malformations of the bone most often involve the cranio-facial area. Even in relevant peer reviewed journals, venous malformations are often misdiagnosed as “hemangiomas” or “angiomas” of the bone.

Agreement between fingertip-capillary and antecubital-venous appetite-related peptides [PDF]
Background: The present study examined the agreement between fingertip-capillary and antecubital-venous measures of appetite-related peptides. Methods: Simultaneous fingertip-capillary and antecubital-venous blood samples were collected from 19 ...

The hairs of a wet dog rushing out from a pond assemble into bundles; this is a common example of the effect of capillary forces on flexible structures. From a practical point of the deformation and adhesion of compliant structures induced by interfacial forces may lead to disastrous effects in mechanical microsystems.
