Thermal stresses associated with a thermosensitive multilayered disc analysed due to point heating

International Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering
In this paper, analytical solutions are presented for temperature and thermal behavior of a thermosensitive multilayered annular disc due to point heat source. Convective heating is applied to both the innermost and outermost layers.

The Removal of Hydrophobic Matter from Thermosensitive Poly[oligo(ethylene glycol) Monomethyl Ether Acrylate] Gel Adsorbent in Alcohol–Water Mixtures

Gels, 2022
A thermosensitive gel that exhibits lower critical solution temperature (LCST) becomes hydrophilic at low temperatures and hydrophobic at high temperatures in water.

Reaction rate of a composite core-shell nanoreactor with multiple, spatially distributed embedded nano-catalysts [PDF]

, 2016
We present a detailed theory for the total reaction rate constant of a composite core-shell nanoreactor, consisting of a central solid core surrounded by a hydrogel layer of variable thickness, where a given number of small catalytic nanoparticles are ...

The genetics of thermosensitive sex determination [PDF]

Temperature, 2016
Temperature-dependent sex determination, TSD for short, was first discovered in reptiles and has been studied for decades. However, the mechanism underlying TSD has been remarkably hard to define.

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.

Liposomes for Magnetic Resonance Image-Guided Drug Delivery; Lipid Chain Length Affects Drug Release and MRI Relaxivity

Molecules
Image-guided drug delivery is a method for tracking drug carriers for activation in specific lesions in the body. Image guidance uses the labelling of the drug or carrier and a clinically approved imaging modality.

AuNPs-Based Thermoresponsive Nanoreactor as an Efficient Catalyst for the Reduction of 4-Nitrophenol

Nanomaterials, 2018
A new AuNPs-based thermosensitive nanoreactor (SiO2@PMBA@Au@PNIPAM) was designed and prepared by stabilizing AuNPs in the layer of poly(N,N’-methylenebisacrylamide) (PMBA) and subsequent wrapping with the temperature-sensitive poly(N ...
