Pulmonary surface tension

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1959
The surface tension of the lung decreases markedly on compression resulting from deflation, as calculated from P-V data, and follows a force-area path very similar to that of several mucus surfaces. With changes in surface area of less than 50%, lung extract and mucus bubble surfaces are mechanically reversible.

Surface Tension

WSQ: Women's Studies Quarterly
This study investigates the surface tension behavior of several aqueous systems—including pure water, salt solutions, detergent solutions, and mixed detergent–salt systems—by employing the capillary rise method as a diagnostic tool. Experimental results demonstrate that a transition in capillary height occurs as the solute type changes, reflecting ...

Surface Tension

CHI '13 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2013
The human body has a privileged place in explanations of how emotions are communicated. Tangible human bodies, it is hoped, can provide a conceptual and empirical bridge sufficient to convey intangible human experiences; a hope shared by technologies such as avatars and embodied robots. Surface tension explores this idea by testing the boundary between

Surface tension.

Clinical medicine (Northfield, Ill.), 2004
Abstract The origin of interfacial tension is the interaction energy between the molecules in the two media present. The first approach by Laplace involves calculating the energy required to divide two parts of an infinite fluid into two parts with a planar separation surface.

Surface Tension

2015
"Surface Tension" is an exploratory spiritual autobiography told through flash nonfiction and lyric essays in order to disrupt traditional chronological narratives of the spiritual self. Compressed poetic reflections on faith and family unfold in spiraling, imagistic fragments, which explore the complex interactions between photographs and memory and ...
