Rupture of lipid vesicles near solid surfaces

Physical Review E, 2014
The behavior of lipid vesicles near solid surfaces, despite its scientific and technological significance, is poorly understood. By simultaneously taking into account (i) the dynamics of spontaneous pore opening and closing in surface bound vesicles; (ii) their volume loss via leakage through the pores; (iii) and the propagation of their contact line ...

The demonstration of rupture of cell surfaces by an immunological technique

Experimental Cell Research, 1963
Abstract It has been shown that when two strains of cells are distracted from glass substrata, they leave antigenic material behind on the glass. Species-specific erythrocyte antibodies combine with this antigenic material as is demonstrated by the mixed agglutination of erythrocytes of the same species to it.

Earthquake Surface Ruptures

2010
The Wenchuan earthquake produced surface ruptures with the most complicated structures and the greatest length as compared with the intra-plate reverse faulting earthquakes that have ever been reported so far (Xu et al., 2008a). The earthquake ruptured simultaneously both the NE-trending, NW-dipping Beichuan and Pengguan faults with right-slip ...

Rupture of thin liquid films on structured surfaces

Physical Review E, 2011
We investigate stability and breakup of a thin liquid film on a solid surface under the action of disjoining pressure. The solid surface is structured by parallel grooves. Air is trapped in the grooves under the liquid film. Our mathematical model takes into account the effect of slip due to the presence of menisci separating the liquid film from the ...

Surface Rupture of the 1857 Southern Italian Earthquake?

Terra Nova, 1998
In October 1862, Robert Mallet published an extensive study of a large earthquake that occurred on 16 December 1857, 150 km south‐east of Naples. This event is one of the most destructive ever recorded in Italy. Although continental earthquakes of similar size are almost invariably associated with surface faulting, Mallet did not identify any surface ...

Rupture and dewetting of water films on solid surfaces

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2010
An experimental study was conducted to observe rupture and dewetting of water films, 0.5-2mm thick, on solid surfaces. The effects of surface roughness, wettability, protrusions on surfaces, and air entrapment between films and surfaces were studied. Film thickness measurements were made and film rupture and surface dewetting photographed.

Rupture of Xanthate Molecules at Copper Surfaces

Nature, 1963
As part of an investigation into the mode of action of dropwise condensation promoters, an investigation has been made of the kinetics of the adsorption of OS dioctadecyl xanthate on to fused copper powder from solution in carbon tetrachloride. The procedure was to shake the reactants in a stoppered flask and follow the rate of xanthate removal by ...

Radar reflection from surfaces with ruptures

13th International Conference on Microwaves, Radar and Wireless Communications. MIKON - 2000. Conference Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.00EX428), 2002
In some radar earth observation problems, it is necessary to investigate reflections from structures with internal ruptures such as fractures in ice ravines or all kinds of hollow spaces. Polarimetric radar may sense the structure of ruptures by doing measurements under different observation angles.

Himalayan Surface Rupturing Earthquakes

2023
The Himalayan range is affected by very strong, devastating earthquakes that have been mentioned in historical chronicles on numerous occasions since the medieval period. Strong devastating earthquakes affect the entire Himalayan range. These earthquakes result from plate tectonics, and more specifically from the India–Asia convergence.

The sensitivity of the creep rupture of a pressurized cylinder to variations in the multiaxial rupture surface

International Journal of Mechanical Sciences, 1985
Abstract The sensitivity of creep rupture life to variations in the multiaxial creep rupture surface is investigated for a long, thick-walled, internally pressurized circular cylinder. The cylinder is initially undamaged and accumulates damage at a rate dependent on both maximum principal stress and equivalent stress.
