Whispering Gallery‐Mode Microdroplet Tensiometry [PDF]
Droplets are ideally suited to support high‐Q‐factor whispering gallery modes (WGMs) due to their perfectly smooth surface. WGMs enable extremely precise measurements of the droplet properties such as size and shape.

A Single-Sensor Approach for Noninvasively Tracking Phase Velocity in Tendons during Dynamic Movement [PDF]
Shear wave tensiometry is a noninvasive method for directly measuring wave speed as a proxy for force in tendons during dynamic activities. Traditionally, tensiometry has used broadband excitation pulses and measured the wave travel time between two ...

Shear wave propagation in the Achilles subtendons is modulated by helical twist and non-uniform loading [PDF]
The triceps surae is composed of the medial gastrocnemius, lateral gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. Each muscle inserts onto a subtendon that undergoes helical twist prior to insertion onto the calcaneus.

Exploring whey and faba bean protein interactions at the oil-water interface: A combined drop tensiometry and microfluidicsstudy [PDF]
The interfacial properties of model oil–water interfaces stabilized by faba bean protein isolate (FPI), whey protein isolate (WPI), and their mixtures were investigated. Two complementary techniques, microfluidics-based analysis and drop tensiometry were

The Polyperfluoromethylisopropyl Ether used as a surface tensiometry tool for non-invasive quality assessment of peloids (TVS mud index®): An overview [PDF]
Background Surface tensiometry consented to characterize the surface free energy of geomaterials in an integrated and non-destructive way. A new surface tensiometry tool, based on the contact angle measurement of Polyperfluoromethylisopropyl Ether (TVS

PRODUCTIVITY OF IRRIGATED JAMBU UNDER SOIL-WATER STRESSES AND NITROGEN DOSES [PDF]
Jambu (Acmella oleracea (L.) R.K.) is a short-cycle leafy vegetable from the Amazon region, which needs an adequate availability of water and nutrients, mainly nitrogen, to obtain a rapid mass increase.

Refractive Index Effects in Pendant Drop Tensiometry [PDF]
AbstractAn optical model is established to investigate the effects of refractive index changes on the measurement of interfacial tension by the pendant drop method with axisymmetric drop shape analysis. In such measurements, light passes from the pendant drop through a surrounding bulk phase, an optical window and air to reach the lens of the camera ...
