Mechanical and Electrical Phenotype of hiPSC‐Cardiomyocytes on Fibronectin‐Based Hydrogels
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.We introduce fibronectin‐based PEG hydrogels with controlled rigidity to enable the culture of iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes. These substrates offer an alternative to the current culture of these cells on fibronectin‐coated glass, providing enhanced structural and functional behavior. The system provides a more physiologically relevant platform to assess

Transient Mixed Convection Flow of A Second-Grade Visco-Elastic Fluid over a Vertical Surface
Nonlinear Analysis, 2008 The viscoelastic boundary layer flow and mixed convection heat transfer near a vertical isothermal surface have been examined in this paper. The governing equations are formulated and solved numerically using an explicit finite difference technique.

Emergence of rheological properties in lattice Boltzmann simulations of gyroid mesophases
, 2006 We use a lattice Boltzmann (LB) kinetic scheme for modelling amphiphilic fluids that correctly predicts rheological effects in flow. No macroscopic parameters are included in the model.

Extensive tip-splitting of injected organic liquid into an aqueous viscoelastic fluid
Frontiers in PhysicsThe injection of a fluid into another fluid causes a spatiotemporal pattern along the injection front. Viscous fingering is a well-known example when the replaced material is a viscous fluid. Notably, most fluids are, in reality, viscoelastic, i.e., they

Micropropulsion and microrheology in complex fluids via symmetry breaking
, 2012 Many biological fluids have polymeric microstructures and display non-Newtonian rheology. We take advantage of such nonlinear fluid behavior and combine it with geometrical symmetry-breaking to design a novel small-scale propeller able to move only in ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review highlights recent advances in smart face masks that actively monitor breathing. By integrating humidity, gas, temperature, pressure, strain, and triboelectric sensors, these masks track key respiratory parameters in real time. The article summarizes sensor mechanisms, compares performance across studies, and discusses challenges and future ...

Concerning the choice of viscoelastic solutions in glaucoma shunt surgery
Кубанский научный медицинский вестник, 2015 Shunt surgery does not have any alternative in refractory glaucoma treatment. The results of this surgical direction are restrained by high risks of intra- and postoperative complications. Considerable fluctuation of intraocular pressure and inflammatory
