Burning velocity and the influence of flame stretch [PDF]
A new technique is presented for determining burning velocities and stretch effects in laminar flames, and applied to a range of fuel/air mixtures. The speeds of expanding spherical flames, measured by high-speed schlieren cine-photography, are shown to

Simulation of the stretch blow moulding process: from the modelling of the microstructure evolution to the end-use elastic properties of polyethylene terephthalate bottles [PDF]
The original publication is available at www.springerlink.comThe whole stretch blow-moulding process of PET bottles is simulated at the usual process temperature in order to predict the elastic end-use properties of the bottles.

Extinction characteristics of ammonia/air counterflow premixed flames at various pressures
Ammonia has promising features as a carbon-free fuel without greenhouse gas emission. However, due to its low combustion intensity, the combustion characteristics of ammonia have been rarely investigated.

The ability of cells to sense and respond to mechanical signals from their surrounding microenvironments is one of the key issues in tissue engineering and regeneration, yet a fundamental study of cells with both cell observation and mechanical stimulus is challenging and should be based upon an appropriate microdevice.

GHz Optical Time-Stretch Microscopy by Compressive Sensing
Optical time-stretch microscopy has recently attracted intensive attention for its capability of acquiring images at an ultrahigh frame rate. Unfortunately, its achievable frame rate is limited by the requirement of having no overlap between consecutive ...

MAPK activation modulates permeability of isolated rat alveolar epithelial cell monolayers following cyclic stretch. [PDF]
We cultured (5 days) rat alveolar epithelial cells to investigate the role of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPk) signaling in ventilator induced epithelial barrier dysfunction. Cells were stretched to a magnitude of 12% or 37% change in surface area
