A noncanonical role for Jagged1 in endothelial mechanotransduction
This study reveals a noncanonical role for Jagged1 in endothelial mechanotransduction. Shear stress modulates Jagged1 expression and subcellular localization. Loss of Jagged1 attenuates mechanotransduction and reduces Src, VEGFR2, and ERK signaling. Direct mechanical stimulation of Jagged1 induces activation of these signaling pathways.

Taylor bubble moving in a flowing liquid in vertical channel: transition from symmetric to asymmetric shape [PDF]
The velocity and shape of Taylor bubbles moving in a vertical channel in a Poiseuille liquid flow were studied for the inertial regime, characterized by large Reynolds numbers.

Kidney transplant recipients develop nasal mucosal antibodies after systemic COVID‐19 vaccination, which are able to inhibit binding of SARS‐CoV‐2 to the ACE2 receptor, but at a lower concentration than the general population. ABSTRACT Background Less than 60% of kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) become IgG seropositive for the viral spike (S ...

Numerical Simulation of Bubble Coalescence using a Volume of Fluid (VOF) Model [PDF]
This paper presents a Volume Tracking model developed with the specific objective of studying the time – dependent behavior of multiple, “large” gas bubbles rising in an initially quiescent liquid.

Mass Transport of a Two Phase Flow Through a Converging Gap With One Moving Wall
ABSTRACT Mechanical seals are designed to separate two fluid phases from each other, exemplified by the separation of ambient air and hydraulic oil in hydraulic cylinder applications. These seals necessarily include a converging gap, even at a microscopic level.
