Porous Kirkenes: Crumbling Mining Town or Dynamic Port Cityscape?
The great number of actors in port city regions, such as port authorities, municipalities, national governments, private companies, societal groups, and flora and fauna, need to develop shared visions.

Quantification of sub-resolution porosity in carbonate rocks by applying high-salinity contrast brine using X-ray microtomography differential imaging [PDF]
Characterisation of the pore space in carbonate reservoirs and aquifers is of utmost importance in a number of applications such as enhanced oil recovery, geological carbon storage and contaminant transport. We present a new experimental methodology that

Effects of ultrasound on polymeric foam porosity [PDF]
A variety of materials require functionally graded cellular microstructures whose porosity is engineered to meet specific applications (e.g. mimic bone structure for orthopaedic applications; fulfil mechanical, thermal or acoustic constraints in ...

Effect of the porosity on the fracture surface roughness of sintered materials: From anisotropic to isotropic self-affine scaling [PDF]
To unravel how the microstructure affects the fracture surface roughness in heterogeneous brittle solids like rocks or ceramics, we characterized the roughness statistics of post-mortem fracture surfaces in home-made materials of adjustable ...

Three-dimensional scaffolds for tissue engineering applications: role of porosity and pore size.
Tissue engineering applications commonly encompass the use of three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds to provide a suitable microenvironment for the incorporation of cells or growth factors to regenerate damaged tissues or organs. These scaffolds serve to mimic

In this paper, we study the properties of a lower porosity of a set in R2. It turns out that the properties of the lower and upper porosity are symmetrical, except that the main tools for testing the lower porosity are not balls but cones. New families of topologies on R2 generated by the lower porosity are defined.

Variations of porosity in calcareous sediments from the Ontong Java Plateau [PDF]
Based on index properties measurements made on board the JOIDES Resolution, we studied porosity changes with depth in the fairly homogeneous deep-sea calcareous sediments cored during Ocean Drilling Program Leg 130 on the Ontong Java Plateau.
