A 95 year-old suffering circulatory arrest after accidental hypothermia: a case report

open access: yesBMC Geriatrics, 2017
Background The elderly are vulnerable to cold and prone to accidental hypothermia, both because of environmental and endogenous factors. The incidence of severe accidental hypothermia among the elderly is poorly described, but many cases probably go ...

Biomimetic Approach for the Elaboration of Highly Hydrophobic Surfaces: Study of the Links between Morphology and Wettability

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2021
This investigation of morphology-wetting links was performed using a biomimetic approach. Three natural leaves’ surfaces were studied: two bamboo varieties and Ginkgo Biloba.

Effect of partial wetting on liquid/solid mass transfer in trickle bed reactors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The wetting efficiency of liquid trickle flow over a fixed bed reactor has been measured for a wide range of parameters including operating conditions, bed structure and physico-chemistry of liquid/solid phases.

Bubble Phenomena and Bubble Properties for Horizontal and Vertical Carbon Anode Surfaces in Cryolite Melt Applying a See-Through Cell

open access: yesMetals, 2021
Gas bubble behavior on a carbon anode in a cryolite melt has been studied using a see-through cell. The phenomena studied have been growth, coalescence, detachment, and wetting during electrolysis.

Dynamic wetting and spreading and the role of topography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Hoffman-de Gennes law, which relates the edge speed, ve, to the dynamic and equilibrium contact angles q and qe by ve µq(q2 -qe 2 ). When the liquid wets the surface completely and the equilibrium contact angle vanishes, the edge speed is proportional to

Bionic superhydrophobic surfaces based on topography of copper oxides

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2022
Superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) exist in many biological organisms endowed by spectacular surface topographies, which provide important insights to drive a paradigm shift in design of engineering surfaces.

Physicochemical Variables Better Explain Changes in Microbial Community Structure and Abundance under Alternate Wetting and Drying Events

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Soil microbial communities play an important role in nutrient cycling; however, their response under repeated long-term fertilization has attracted little attention and needs further appraisal.

Can attenuated total internal reflection-Fourier transform infrared be used to understand the interaction between polymers and water? A hyperspectral imaging study

open access: yesJournal of Spectral Imaging, 2017
This study investigates the potential use of attenuated total internal reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FT-IR) imaging, a hyperspectral imaging modality, to investigate molecular level trends in the interaction of water with polymeric surfaces ...

Bulk and Surface Low Temperature Phase Transitions in the Mg-Alloy EZ33A

open access: yesMetals, 2020
Low-temperature phase transitions in the EZ33A Mg-cast alloy have been investigated. Based on the structure assessment of the alloy after annealing at 150 °C (1826 h) and at 200 °C (2371 h) a grain boundary wetting transition by a second solid phase was ...
