Lung maneuvers of large amplitudes for probing physiological alterations in mouse models of asthma

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Lung maneuvers of small amplitudes, such as the ones performed in oscillometry, are the current gold standard to probe lung mechanics in animals, but they are insensitive to detect baseline physiological alterations in mouse models of asthma. Herein, lung maneuvers of different amplitudes were compared in two mouse models of asthma.

Generation of Oil Droplets in a Non-Newtonian Liquid Using a Microfluidic T-Junction

Micromachines, 2015
We have compared the formation of oil drops in Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in a T-junction microfluidic device. As Newtonian fluids, we used aqueous solutions of glycerol, while as non-Newtonian fluids we prepared aqueous solutions of xanthan, a ...

Exploring the Application of Waxes and Their Mixtures Oleogels in Ice Cream

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to produce ice cream using waxes oleogels, aiming to improve its nutritional value while maintaining its physical‐chemistry characteristics. Five ice cream formulations were manufactured using (1) milk fat, (2) canola oil, and (3–5) canola oil‐oleogels. The oleogels were produced with beeswax (BEW), carnauba wax (

Applying Tiab’s direct synthesis technique to dilatant non-Newtonian/Newtonian fluids

Ingeniería e Investigación, 2011
Non-Newtonian fluids, such as polymer solutions, have been used by the oil industry for many years as fracturing agents and drilling mud. These solutions, which normally include thickened water and jelled fluids, are injected into the formation to ...

Complexity Analysis of Bubble Plumes in Power Law Fluids Based on Chaos Theory

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In order to reveal the complexity of the internal flow of bubble plume in power law fluid, the flow characteristics and chaotic characteristics of plume are studied by experiment and theory. The chaotic characteristic parameters (correlation dimension D, K entropy, and Lyapunov exponent λ) of gas velocity under different superficial gas ...

Time decay of solutions for compressible isentropic non-Newtonian fluids

Boundary Value Problems
In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of a compressible Navier–Stokes system of Eills-type non-Newtonian fluids. We investigate the time decay properties of classical solutions for the compressible non-Newtonian fluid equations. More specifically,

Two‐Dimensional Flow and Thermal Energy Transfer in Non‐Newtonian Casson–Carreau Ternary Hybrid Nanofluids Over Stationary and Moving Wedge Surfaces With Radiation and Magnetic Field Effects

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient thermal management in advanced industrial systems requires improved heat transfer performance, particularly under non‐Newtonian fluid behavior and complex surface geometries. This study investigates the two‐dimensional flow and heat transfer characteristics of ternary hybrid nanofluids over both stationary and moving wedge surfaces ...

Radiation‐Absorptive Heat Transport in Buoyancy‐Driven MHD Nanofluids Flow With Cross‐Diffusion and Chemical Interaction Effects Over a Vertical Moving Plate

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article investigates the Soret–Dufour cross‐diffusion effects on radiation‐absorptive unsteady free‐convection of magnetized nanofluids (TiO2–water$$ {\mathrm{TiO}}_2\hbox{--} \mathrm{water} $$ and Cu–water$$ \mathrm{Cu}\hbox{--} \mathrm{water} $$) flow over a vertical moving permeable plate.

CFD Simulation and PIV Measurement of Local Fluid Velocity Distribution of Newtonian and Highly Shear-Thinning Fluid in an Impeller Rotational Region

Journal of Chemical Engineering of Japan
Multistage impellers are widely used in the chemical industry to enhance the mixing of shear-thinning fluids. However, the local velocity around multistage impellers has not been sufficiently investigated.

A New Paradigm for Understanding the Rheology and Processability of Poly(p‐Phenylene Terephthalamide) Liquid‐Crystalline Solutions

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Kevlar is traditionally modeled as a rigid‐rod polymer, yet rheological behavior deviates from this assumption. The review introduces a novel “twist‐tie” entanglement theory for aramid polymer chains in the nematic liquid crystal state, providing a molecular explanation for deviations from rigid‐rod models. Understanding twist‐tie entanglement dynamics
