Temperature Gradient Generation and Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In today’s microfluidic technology, electrokinetic transport is used to perform many chemical and biological analyses in lab-on-a-chip devices, such as clinical diagnoses, DNA scanning, cell manipulation, cell patterning, and molecular detection. Due to the presence of an electrical potential gradient in electrokinetic transport, Joule heating is a ...

In silico evaluation of the thermal stress induced by MRI switched gradient fields in patients with metallic hip implant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This work focuses on the in silico evaluation of the energy deposed by MRI switched gradient fields in bulk metallic implants and the consequent temperature increase in the surrounding tissues. An original computational strategy, based on the subdivision

Cave airflow mechanism of a crevice-type cave: A case study from Czechia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2020
At present, crevice-type caves are investigated mainly by means of geomorphic and geophysical methods. Microclimatic research of this type of caves is underrepresented and is often limited to temperature and humidity measurement only.

Effect of defects on the motion of carbon nanotube thermal actuator

open access: yesNanotechnology Reviews, 2019
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the movement behavior of double-walled carbon nanotube containing single atom vacancy defect and Stone–Wales defect. The carbon nanotube thermal actuator consists of a short outer tube and a long inner

Tangling clustering of inertial particles in stably stratified turbulence

open access: yes, 2010
We have predicted theoretically and detected in laboratory experiments a new type of particle clustering (tangling clustering of inertial particles) in a stably stratified turbulence with imposed mean vertical temperature gradient.

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...
