In‐Mold Wettability Patterning of Microfluidic Devices Without Back‐End Surface Modification

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study demonstrates in‐mold wettability patterning of microfluidic devices, eliminating the need for post‐fabrication surface modification to define hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions. The new approach enables efficient droplet seeding in hydrophilic‐in‐hydrophobic well arrays and selective wettability of microchannels in fluidic devices.

Computational Rheo‐Hydrodynamic Analysis of Non‐Newtonian Blood Flow Through a Tilted Ellipsoidal Stenosed Vascular Segment

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
Non‐Newtonian blood flow through multiple tilted ellipsoidal stenoses is numerically investigated using the DeKee‐Turcotte‐Papanastasiou model. The results reveal asymmetric velocity fields, elevated wall shear stress, significant pressure drops, and shear‐dependent thermal effects, highlighting the critical hemodynamic risks associated with eccentric ...

Thermal Analysis of Phase Change Material Based Energy Storage Module With Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces

Energy Storage, Volume 8, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The thermal performance of two triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) thermal Energy Storage modules, Diamond and Primitive, was investigated using computational fluid dynamics. The melting and solidification behaviors, as well as the charging and discharging characteristics, of the TPMS Energy Storage units were studied for various flow rates.

Biomechanics and Evolution of the Primate Tongue

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Primate tongue morphology and function are critical to understanding the evolution of feeding, swallowing, and vocalization. In this paper, we examine the primate tongue as a muscular hydrostat with regionally specialized neuromuscular compartments. We integrate anatomical, kinematic, and biomechanical modeling approaches to analyze how muscle
