Capillary rise simulation of saline waters of different concentrations in sandy soils

open access: yesKKU Engineering Journal, 2016
Soil salinity causes corrosion of engineering structures worldwide. The main cause of soil salinization is capillary rise of saline groundwater. Soil salinity can be mitigated once the capillary rise of saline groundwater in soils is understood.

Microfluidic Inertial Switch Capable of Bidirectional Anti-High Overload

open access: yesShanghai Jiaotong Daxue xuebao, 2021
In order to realize the stable application of microfluidic inertial switch in the intelligent ammunition fuze system, a bidirectional anti-high overload microfluidic inertial switch is proposed to solve the problem of switch contact instability caused by

Bioengineering facets of the tumor microenvironment in 3D tumor models: insights into cellular, biophysical and biochemical interactions

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.

On the physics of fizzing: How bubble bursting controls droplets ejection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bubbles at a free surface surface usually burst in ejecting myriads of droplets. Focusing on the bubble bursting jet, prelude for these aerosols, we propose a simple scaling for the jet velocity and we unravel experimentally the intricate roles of bubble shape, capillary waves, gravity and liquid properties.

Surface morphological evolutions on single crystal films by strong anisotropic drift-diffusion under the capillary and electromigration forces [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Physics, Volume 100, 043504 Aug 17, 2006, 2009
The morphological evolution of voids at the unpassivated surfaces and the sidewalls of the single crystal metallic films are investigated via computer simulations by using the novel mathematical model developed by Ogurtani relying on the fundamental postulates of irreversible thermodynamics.

Morphological evolution of edge-hillocks on single crystal films having anisotropic drift-diffusion under the capillary and electromigration forces [PDF]

open access: yesThin Solid Films, Volume 515, Issue 5, 22 January 2007, Pages 2974-2983, 2009
The morphological evolution of hillocks at the unpassivated sidewalls of the single crystal metallic thin films is investigated via computer simulations by using the free-moving boundary value problem. The effects of the drift-diffusion anisotropy on the development of surface topographical scenarios is fully explored under the action of ...

Frictional property of a 3D-capillary-structured surface fabricated by selective laser melting [PDF]

open access: yesJurnal Tribologi, 2019
In this study, a self-oil-circulating structure, termed a 3D-capillary structure, has been proposed to improve the frictional properties of sliding elements.

Differential radial capillary action of ligand assay for high-throughput detection of protein-metabolite interactions

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2011
Interactions of proteins with low-molecular-weight ligands, such as metabolites, cofactors, and allosteric regulators, are important determinants of metabolism, gene regulation, and cellular homeostasis. Pharmaceuticals often target these interactions to

Capillary-wave models and the effective average action scheme of functional renormalization group [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 84, 021124 (2011), 2011
We reexamine the functional renormalization-group theory of wetting transitions. As a starting point of the analysis we apply an exact equation describing renormalization group flow of the generating functional for irreducible vertex functions. We show how the standard nonlinear renormalization group theory of wetting transitions can be recovered by a ...

Skin calcium deposits in primary familial brain calcification: A novel potential biomarker

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Primary Familial Brain Calcification (PFBC) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by small vessel calcifications in the basal ganglia. PFBC is caused by pathogenic variants in different genes and its physiopathology is still largely unknown. Skin vascular calcifications have been detected in single PFBC cases, suggesting
