Highly flexible, foldable, and rollable microsupercapacitors on an ultrathin polyimide substrate with high power density. [PDF]

, 2018
The design and functionality of extremely flexible, foldable, and rollable microsupercapacitors (MSCs) with in-plane interdigital electrodes that consist of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) networks on an ultrathin polyimide substrate are ...

Bridging the computational gap between mesoscopic and continuum modeling of red blood cells for fully resolved blood flow

, 2019
We present a computational framework for the simulation of blood flow with fully resolved red blood cells (RBCs) using a modular approach that consists of a lattice Boltzmann solver for the blood plasma, a novel finite element based solver for the ...

On‐Chip Evaluation of Red Blood Cell Deformability Through Transit Velocity Index in Hematological Diseases

Small, EarlyView.
The deformability of red blood cell is essential for smooth microcirculation. We propose a deformability index using a microfluidic platform with capillary‐like constrictions, based on the relationship between cell deformation and transit velocity through the constrictions. Its effectiveness and clinical potential have been demonstrated in applications

Analyses of the Deformability and Chemistry of Non‐Metallic Inclusions in QT Steels With Increased Recycling‐Induced Tramp Element Content

steel research international, EarlyView.
This work uses high‐temperature dilatometry to examine how the tramp elements Cu, Ni, and Sn affect the deformability of non‐metallic inclusions and matrix in quench‐and‐temper steel. Mg‐bearing inclusions deform less than Mg‐free ones. Copper lowers formability. Nickel increases deformability.

Ultraprecision cutting of single-crystal calcium fluoride for fabricating micro flow cells

Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2018
Single-crystal infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a promising method for protein structure analysis, where a protein crystal sample is fixed in a micro flow cell.

Cross-stream migration of a surfactant-laden deformable droplet in a Poiseuille flow

, 2017
The motion of a viscous deformable droplet suspended in an unbounded Poiseuille flow in the presence of bulk-insoluble surfactants is studied analytically.

A thermoplastic microfluidic platform with integrated electrospun scaffolds for assessing brain cell‐specific drug selectivity

VIEW, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the microfluidic platform with its advantages. Abstract A major challenge in pharmacology is the limited selectivity of therapeutic compounds toward specific tissues or cells. Drugs often distribute systemically before reaching the intended site of action, affecting nontarget cells and potentially reducing efficacy or ...

Determination of Chip Compression Ratio for the Orthogonal Cutting Process

Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing
The chip compression ratio is the most important characteristic of various machining processes with chip generation. This characteristic enables the determination of kinetic and other energy loads on the tool and the machined material.

Controllable deformation of silicon nanowires with strain up to 24% [PDF]

, 2010
Fabricated silicon nanostructures demonstrate mechanical properties unlike their macroscopic counterparts. Here we use a force mediating polymer to controllably and reversibly deform silicon nanowires.

Panoramic voltage‐sensitive optical mapping of contracting hearts using cooperative multiview motion tracking with 12 cameras

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstact figure legend A panoramic 3D optical mapping system was developed, enabling imaging of action potential waves across the entire strongly deforming ventricular surface of beating isolated hearts. The system comprises 12 high‐speed cameras and a soccerball‐shaped imaging chamber with 48 light‐emitting diodes (LEDs).
