Alternating-Magnetic-Field-Mediated Wireless Manipulations of a Liquid Metal for Therapeutic Bioengineering

Numerical Study of turbulent free convection of liquid metal with constant and variable properties in the presence of magnetic field

In this research, turbulent MHD convection of liquid metal with constant and variable properties is investigated numerically. The finite volume method is applied to model the fluid flow and natural convection heat transfer in a square cavity. The fluid flow and heat transfer were simulated and compared for two cases constant and variable properties. It is observed that for the case variable pro...

Heating magnetic fluid with alternating magnetic field

This study develops analytical relationships and computations of power dissipation in magnetic fluid (ferrofluid) subjected to alternating magnetic field. The dissipation results from the orientational relaxation of particles having thermal fluctuations in a viscous medium. r 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Bioengineering Lantibiotics for Therapeutic Success

Several examples of highly modified antimicrobial peptides have been described. While many such peptides are non-ribosomally synthesized, ribosomally synthesized equivalents are being discovered with increased frequency. Of the latter group, the lantibiotics continue to attract most attention. In the present review, we discuss the implementation of in vivo and in vitro engineering systems to al...

Liquid metal flow encasing a magnetic cavity

A stationary equilibrium of a liquid metal flowing past a cylindrical magnetic cavity is presented. The cavity has an azimuthal magnetic field and can also have an axial field. The liquid metal flow can be maintained by a sufficiently high pressure head. The scheme could be used to support a flowing liquid wall for systems producing high heat fluxes. © 2000 American Institute of Physics. @S1070...
