Vent and relief valve maintains low leakage rate over broad temperature range [PDF]
, 1968 Low leakage rate, large diameter vent and relief valve operates satisfactorily over a large temperature range by a design that accommodates waviness and distortions due to thermal gradients. It is based on a fixed sealing member having an inclined lapped

Pressure dependent friction on granular slopes close to avalanche
, 2017 We investigate the sliding of objects on an inclined granular surface close to the avalanche threshold. Our experiments show that the stability is driven by the surface deformations.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Here, we present a novel 3D cell patterning and culture platform. The “Floor‐Ceiling‐Chip” (FC‐Chip) consists of two opposing track‐etched membranes, creating a pseudo‐3D microenvironment for the cells in between. By providing the membranes with micropatterned cell‐adhesive islands of varying geometries and sizes, the FC‐Chip enables control over cell ...

Travelling-wave similarity solutions for an unsteady shear-stress-driven dry patch in a flowing film [PDF]
, 2013 We investigate unsteady flow of a thin film of Newtonian fluid around a symmetric slender dry patch moving with constant velocity on an inclined planar substrate, the flow being driven by a prescribed constant shear stress at the free surface of the film

Lattice-Boltzmann Method for Geophysical Plastic Flows
, 2015 We explore possible applications of the Lattice-Boltzmann Method for the simulation of geophysical flows. This fluid solver, while successful in other fields, is still rarely used for geotechnical applications.

Surface magnetic field effects in local helioseismology
, 2007 Using helioseismic holography strong evidence is presented that the phase (or equivalent travel-time) of helioseismic signatures in Dopplergrams within sunspots depend upon the line-of-sight angle in the plane containing the magnetic field and vertical ...

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...
