Studies on Velocity Fields Around the Cavitation Vortices Generated by the Model of a Rotating Blade
The elimination of hazards caused by cavitation phenomena is an important issue to be considered in the design of process equipment including flow machinery. These hazards are: cavitation erosion, efficiency decrease as well as vibration and noise.

Flow Field of Turbulent Premixed Combustion in a Cyclone-Jet Combustor
The flow field in highly turbulent premixed combustion has been examined, using a cyclone-jet combustor. The shear-strain rate is obtained by PIV system. Results show that, in combustion field, mean axial velocity does not decay along center axis and RMS

From Cytoskeletal Remodeling to Oocyte Quality: The Emerging Role of Mechanics
Mechanical properties of the oocyte are increasingly recognized as critical determinants of meiotic success and developmental potential. How actomyosin remodeling controls oocyte mechanics, how these properties are altered in pathological conditions, and how they could serve as markers in reproductive medicine are examined.

Essential work, invisible workers: The role of digital curation in COVID‐19 Open Science
Abstract In this paper, we examine the role digital curation practices and practitioners played in facilitating open science (OS) initiatives amid the COVID‐19 pandemic. In Summer 2023, we conducted a content analysis of available information regarding 50 OS initiatives that emerged—or substantially shifted their focus—between 2020 and 2022 to address ...

UNSTEADY VELOCITY PIV MEASUREMENTS AND 3D NUMERICAL CALCULATION COMPATISONS INSIDE THE IMPELLER OF A RADIAL PUMP MODEL [PDF]
PIV measurements were performed at mid hub section inside the impeller of a vaned diffuser pump model working with air. Several previous papers have already presented part of impeller flow characteristics mainly for vaneless diffuser and near nominal ...

ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Acoustic‐driven surface cleaning with millimeter‐sized bubbles at translational resonance
Time‐lapse visualization comparing bubble trajectories. The top panel (0 Hz) shows a bubble's linear path under no acoustic forcing, while the bottom panel (50 Hz) demonstrates the oscillatory motion induced by acoustic waves at a resonance mode. This mechanism holds promising potential for applications such as surface cleaning.

Flow field and interaction of lifted flames in a triple port burner
In this study, we experimentally examined a combustion field in a triple port burner. There are four flame configurations, consisting of attached flames, inner attached/outer lifted flames, inner lifted/outer attached flames, and twin lifted flames ...
