Study of macroscopic and microscopic properties of liposomes produced using microfluidic methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
For the last decades, lipid vesicles or liposomes, vesicles formed by a bilayer of amphiphilic lipids, have been used as a toy model for studying the cell membrane and for applications in cosmetics and drug delivery.

Contact mechanics for randomly rough surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
When two solids are squeezed together they will in general not make atomic contact everywhere within the nominal (or apparent) contact area. This fact has huge practical implications and must be considered in many technological applications.

Electrically Tunable On‐Chip Topological Photonics with Integrated Carbon Nanotubes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates electrically tunable on‐chip topological THz devices by integrating 2D carbon nanotube (CNT) sheets with valley‐Hall photonic crystals, enabling broadband transmission modulation (71% modulation depth) and tunable narrowband filtering (0.54 GHz shift) through electrically induced thermal tuning. This advancement paves the way for

Highly Stable Ion‐Exchange Doping of Organic Semiconductor Single Crystals for Reliable Flexible Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Stable ion‐exchange doping of organic semiconductor single crystals is demonstrated using bulky hydrophobic anions. Electrical conductivity is significantly enhanced and maintained under ambient air and elevated temperatures, while intrinsic strain sensitivity remains intact over 100 000 strain cycles. The approach highlights the critical role of anion

Driving Safety Analysis Using Grid-Based Water-Filled Rut Depth Distribution

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
The water accumulated in the rutted road sections poses a threat to the safety of vehicles. Water-filled ruts will cause partial or complete loss of the friction between tires and the road surface, leading to driving safety hazards such as hydroplaning ...

Mathematical models for somite formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Somitogenesis is the process of division of the anterior–posterior vertebrate embryonic axis into similar morphological units known as somites. These segments generate the prepattern which guides formation of the vertebrae, ribs and other associated ...
