Fingering Instability in Combustion

open access: yes, 1997
A thin solid (e.g., paper), burning against an oxidizing wind, develops a fingering instability with two decoupled length scales. The spacing between fingers is determined by the P\'eclet number (ratio between advection and diffusion).

A Simple Model for Anisotropic Step Growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We consider a simple model for the growth of isolated steps on a vicinal crystal surface. It incorporates diffusion and drift of adatoms on the terrace, and strong step and kink edge barriers.

Dynamics of cholesteric structures in an electric field

open access: yes, 2003
Motivated by Lehmann-like rotation phenomena in cholesteric drops we study the transverse drift of two types of cholesteric fingers, which form rotating spirals in thin layers of cholesteric liquid crystal in an ac or dc electric field.

Digital glomus tumor: An experience of 57 cases over 20 years

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2020
Background: Glomus tumors are rare tumors and may affect any area of the body, but digits, palms, and soles are commonly affected due to higher number of glomus body.

Molecular excitation in the Eagle nebula's fingers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Context: The M16 nebula is a relatively nearby Hii region, powered by O stars from the open cluster NGC 6611, which borders to a Giant Molecular Cloud. Radiation from these hot stars has sculpted columns of dense obscuring material on a few arcmin scales.

Direct Numerical Simulation of 3D Salt Fingers: From Secondary Instability to Chaotic Convection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The amplification and equilibration of three-dimensional salt fingers in unbounded uniform vertical gradients of temperature and salinity is modeled with a Direct Numerical Simulation in a triply periodic computational domain.

Self-locking telescoping manipulator arm [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
A telescoping manipulator arm and pivotable finger assembly are disclosed. The telescoping arm assembly includes a generally T-shaped arm having three outwardly extending fingers guided on grooved roller guides to compensate for environmental variations.

Neural correlates of finger gnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Neuropsychological studies have described patients with a selective impairment of finger identification in association with posterior parietal lesions. However, evidence of the role of these areas in finger gnosis from studies of the healthy human brain ...
