Gravity-driven draining of a thin rivulet with constant width down a slowly varying substrate [PDF]
The locally unidirectional gravity-driven draining of a thin rivulet with constant width but slowly varying contact angle down a slowly varying substrate is considered.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Dynamic wetting and spreading and the role of topography [PDF]
Hoffman-de Gennes law, which relates the edge speed, ve, to the dynamic and equilibrium contact angles q and qe by ve µq(q2 -qe 2 ). When the liquid wets the surface completely and the equilibrium contact angle vanishes, the edge speed is proportional to

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

An open microfluidic design for contact angle measurement
Spontaneous capillary flow in open microchannels is a phenomenon driven by surface energies. The contact angle that the liquid forms with the channel's substrate material and the cross-section of the microchannel decide whether liquid from a connected ...

The effect of die half angle in tube nosing with relieved die [PDF]
This research concentrates on rotary nosing using cone shape dies, in particular using “relieved dies”. “Relieved die” is a cone-shape die with contact surfaces and grounddown relieved surfaces.

UV laser irradiation (lambda = 193 nm), below and above damage thresholds, is used to both alter and pattern the surface properties of borosilicate slides to tune and control the contact angle of a water drop over the surface.

Influence of surface roughness on superhydrophobicity [PDF]
Superhydrophobic surfaces, with liquid contact angle theta greater than 150 degree, have important practical applications ranging from self-cleaning window glasses, paints, and fabrics to low-friction surfaces. Many biological surfaces, such as the lotus
