Phoretic flow induced by asymmetric confinement [PDF]
J. Fluid Mech. 799, R5 (2016), 2016 Internal phoretic flows due to the interactions of solid boundaries with local chemical gradients may be created using chemical patterning. Alternatively, we demonstrate here that internal flows might also be induced by geometric asymmetries of chemically-homogeneous surfaces.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The new generation nanobomb, termed the stealth nanobomb, is fabricated through self‐assembly using a polymeric carbon monoxide carrier (PLGA(CO)), small molecule near‐infrared‐active agents (2TT‐OC46B), and phospholipid polyethylene glycol (DSPE‐mPEG2000). The stealth nanobomb can circulate in the bloodstream and specifically target pancreatic cancer,

BioFactors, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1226-1249, November/December 2022., 2022 Abstract Ocular allergies are becoming more prevalent as more airborne pollutants, irritants and microbes pervade our environment. Inflammatory and allergic mediators released by dendritic and mast cells within the conjunctiva cause allergic conjunctivitis (AC), a prevalent ocular surface disorder that affects >40% of the world's human population on a ...

On the estimation of time dependent lift of a European Starling during flapping [PDF]
, 2015 We study the role of unsteady lift in the context of flapping wings in birds' flight. Both aerodynamicists and biologists attempt to address this subject, yet it seems that the contribution of the unsteady lift still holds many open questions. The current study deals with the estimation of unsteady aerodynamic forces on a freely flying bird through ...

The Unsteady Lift Produced by a Flat-Plate Wing Translating Past Finite Obstacles [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The unsteady lift of a high-angle-of-attack, flat-plate wing encountering finite-length obstacles is studied using towing-tank force measurements. The wing translates from rest and interacts with a rectangular channel, ceiling, or ground obstacle. Variations with angle of attack, obstacle length, mid-chord height to the obstacle, and starting distance ...

Rotary mechanical circulatory support systems [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation and Assistive Technologies Engineering.
2017;4:1-24, 2017 A detailed survey of the current trends and recent advances in rotary mechanical circulatory support systems is presented in this paper. Rather than clinical reports, the focus is on technological aspects of these rehabilitating devices as a reference for engineers and biomedical researchers.

Inorganic Nanomaterials Meet the Immune System: An Intricate Balance
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Metal nanomaterials influence the immune responses, such as cytokine production and T‐cell activity. Unintended immune modulation can have significant consequences while its fine‐tuning may transform the oncology care. Within this review, a critical analysis is offered regarding the nano/immune‐interaction and suggests the future research directions to

The role of PAF in immunopathology: From immediate hypersensitivity reactions to fungal defense
BioFactors, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1217-1225, November/December 2022., 2022 Abstract Platelet‐activating factor (PAF, 1‐alkyl‐2‐acetyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphorylcholine) was discovered when the mechanisms involved in the deposition of immune complex in tissues were being scrutinized in the experimental model of rabbit serum sickness.
