Calcification in free-living coralline algae is strongly influenced by morphology: Implications for susceptibility to ocean acidification

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Rhodolith beds built by free-living coralline algae are important ecosystems for marine biodiversity and carbonate production. Yet, our mechanistic understanding regarding rhodolith physiology and its drivers is still limited.

Heterogeneous Porous Media Simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Intracranial aneurysms are vascular disorders in which weakness in the wall of a cerebral artery or vein causes a localized dilation of the blood vessel.

Microscopic Motion of Particles Flowing through a Porous Medium

open access: yes, 1999
We use Stokesian Dynamics simulations to study the microscopic motion of particles suspended in fluids passing through porous media. We construct model porous media with fixed spherical particles, and allow mobile ones to move through this fixed bed ...

Numerical modelling of thermo-hydromechanical (THM) in deforming porous media for subsurface systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The study of multiphase flow and heat flow in partially saturated porous media is important in environmental geomechanics engineering because of its relevance to consolidation of porous media in unsaturated zone.

On the transport of emulsions in porous media [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2007
Emulsions appear in many subsurface applications including bioremediation, surfactant-enhanced remediation, and enhanced oil-recovery. Modeling emulsion transport in porous media is particularly challenging because the rheological and physical properties of emulsions are different from averages of the components.

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Enclosure enhancement of flight performance

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2014
We use a potential flow solver to investigate the aerodynamic aspects of flapping flights in enclosed spaces. The enclosure effects are simulated by the method of images.

In Situ Deformation Analysis of a Fracture in Coal under Cyclic Loading and Unloading

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The deformation analysis of fractures is vital for advantageous development of oil and gas fields, especially the coalbed methane (CBM) reservoir, since the change of fracture parameters can be directly evaluated through fracture deformation analysis ...

Porous Media Mechanics

open access: yes, 1994
A family of finite elements for two-dimensional, three-dimensional and axisymmetric finite deformation of porous media has been implemented into DIANA. This implementation includes two extensions of Biot’s theory: one for swelling media, the other for blood perfused soft tissue.

Dapagliflozin prevents methylglyoxal‐induced retinal cell death in ARPE‐19 cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Diabetic macular oedema is a diabetes complication of the eye, which may lead to permanent blindness. ARPE‐19 are human retinal cells used to study retinal diseases and potential therapeutics. Methylglyoxal is a compound increased in uncontrolled diabetes due to elevated blood glucose.
