A planar microfluidic mixer based on logarithmic spirals [PDF]
Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering, 2012 A passive, planar micromixer design based on logarithmic spirals is presented. The device was fabricated using polydimethylsiloxane soft photolithography techniques, and mixing performance was characterized via numerical simulation and fluorescent microscopy.

Logarithmic and Archimedean organic crystalline spirals [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsCrystals can be found in many shapes but do not usually grow as spirals. Here we show that applying a non-uniform layer of a polymer blend onto slender centimeter-size organic crystals prestrains the crystals into hybrid dynamic elements with spiral ...

Individual preferences for certain types of spirals and the possible role of creativity [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThis study explores the appeal of different types of spirals, commonly found in nature, architecture, and art. The first experiment investigated aesthetic appreciation of Archimedean, logarithmic, and golden spirals, considering factors such as size and ...

Golden spiral or Fibonacci spiral: Which is more beautiful and why? [PDF]
i-PerceptionSpirals, with their widespread presence in both nature and culture, are universally admired. Although there are different types, such as the Archimedean, logarithmic, and golden spirals, they are indiscriminately considered as beautiful.

Selectively advantageous instability in biotic and pre-biotic systems and implications for evolution and aging [PDF]
Frontiers in AgingRules of biology typically involve conservation of resources. For example, common patterns such as hexagons and logarithmic spirals require minimal materials, and scaling laws involve conservation of energy. Here a relationship with the opposite theme is

Special Curves in Engineering. Surfaces Generated by the Logarithmic Spiral
Modelling in Civil Environmental Engineering, 2022 The logarithmic spiral is one of the most known curves with applications in engineering. We consider product of the logarithmic spiral with a real line and tensor product of two logarithmic spirals and investigate their minimality or flatness.

A geometric approach to inelastic collapse
Journal of Computational Geometry, 2022 We show in this note how to interpret logarithmic spiral tilings as one-dimensional particle systems undergoing inelastic collapse. By deforming the spirals appropriately, we can simulate collisions among particles with distinct or varying coefficients ...
