Antarctic upper mantle rheology
Abstract The Antarctic mantle and lithosphere are known to have large lateral contrasts in seismic velocity and tectonic history. These contrasts suggest differences in the response timescale of mantle flow across the continent, similar to those documented between the northeastern and southwestern upper mantle of North America.

There have been two main avenues of investigation of the rheology of the mantle: theoretical and laboratory studies of the mechanical behavior of solids and direct estimates obtained by comparing geologic observations with model calculations in which rheological parameters are the principal variables.

Arrhenius rheology versus Frank‐Kamenetskii rheology—Implications for mantle dynamics [PDF]
The viscosity of planetary mantle material is strongly temperature dependent. This dependence is described by an Arrhenius law. But for the realistic viscosity contrast that appears over the depth of the mantle, strong gradients in the upper thermal boundary layer occur. These strong gradients are not realizable in numerical models.

Multi‐scale dynamics and rheology of mantle flow with plates [PDF]
Fundamental issues in our understanding of plate and mantle dynamics remain unresolved, including the rheology and state of stress of plates and slabs; the coupling between plates, slabs and mantle; and the flow around slabs. To address these questions, models of global mantle flow with plates are computed using adaptive finite elements, and compared ...

Sea‐level fluctuations due to subduction: The role of mantle rheology [PDF]
By means of a stratified viscoelastic Earth model we study the effect of sinking slabs on the dynamic topography, the non‐hydrostatic geoid and the long‐term sea level variations. Sea level fluctuations due to subduction are found to be sensitive to the nature of the 670 km seismic discontinuity and to the rheological layering of the mantle.

Fat Plumes May Reflect the Complex Rheology of the Lower Mantle [PDF]
AbstractRecent tomographic imaging of the mantle below major hot spots shows slow seismic velocities extending down to the core‐mantle boundary, confirming the existence of mantle plumes. However, these plumes are much thicker than previously thought. Using new laboratory experiments and scaling laws, we show that thermal plumes developing in a visco ...

A General Workflow for Tangential Flow Filtration Perfusion Scale‐Up
ABSTRACT Tangential flow filtration (TFF) perfusion using hollow‐fiber modules offers substantial advantages over other mammalian cell retention technologies. Recently, increased awareness of Starling flow has helped to enhance filtration performance to similar, or even higher levels compared to alternative technologies.

This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

ABSTRACT Striae distensae are common dermal lesions that negatively affect skin appearance, and topical management remains limited by challenges related to skin deposition and residence time. Here, we developed transparent surfactant‐based isotropic systems for the topical co‐delivery of ascorbic acid (AA), retinoic acid (RA), and lavender essential ...
