Numerical Simulation for Meniscus Bridge Formation and Breakage
Tribology Online, 2009 For mechanical devices in micro or nanometer scale, interactions between surfaces have become very important. When two surfaces approach each other, in the presence of meniscus bridges by liquid film on the surface or condensed water from humid air ...

A scaled MP-PIC method for bubbling fluidization [PDF]
, 2021 Coarse-grained methods have been widely used in simulations of gas-solid fluidization. However, as a key parameter, the coarse-graining ratio, and its relevant scaling law is still far from reaching a consensus. In this work, a scaling law is developed based on a similarity analysis, and then it is used to scale the multi-phase particle-in-cell (MP-PIC)

Method for microplastics extraction from Lake sediments
MethodsX, 2020 In recent years, microplastics (MPs) contamination has been emphasized as one of the most global ecological problems. Bottom sediments were identified as one of the major sinks of MPs, while river-lake systems - as the main transport routs of MPs into ...

Low-complexity computation of plate eigenmodes with Vekua approximations and the Method of Particular Solutions [PDF]
, 2013 This paper extends the Method of Particular Solutions (MPS) to the computation of eigenfrequencies and eigenmodes of plates. Specific approximation schemes are developed, with plane waves (MPS-PW) or Fourier-Bessel functions (MPS-FB). This framework also

Inhalable microplastics prevails in air: Exploring the size detection limit
Environment International, 2022 Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the environment, including the atmosphere. Yet, the size detection limit in measuring airborne MPs undermines the determination of the human MP exposure level through inhalation and also restricts the understanding ...
