Microscale Surface Tension and its Applications

Microbial Cell Surface Display: Its Medical and Environmental Applications

Cell-surface display is the expression of peptides and proteins on the surface of living cells by fusing them tofunctional components of cells which are exposed to the environment of cells. This strategy can be carriedout using different surface proteins of cells as anchoring motifs and different proteins from different sourcesas a passenger protein. It is a promising strategy...

Surface tension and its temperature coefficient for liquid metals.

Temperature-dependent surface tension gamma(lv)(T) and its temperature coefficient (T) [=dgamma(lv)(T)/dT] for liquid metals are thermodynamically determined on the basis of an established model for surface energy of crystals. The model predictions correspond to the available experimental or theoretical results. It is found that for metallic liquids gamma(lv)(T(m)) proportional, variant H(v)/V(...

MODELING SURFACE TENSION AND WALL ADHESION IN MOLD FILLING PROCESS

Abstract: In this study an algorithm for mold-filling simulation with consideration of surface tension has been developed based on a SOLA VOF scheme. As the governing equations, the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible and laminar flows were used. We proposed a way of considering surface tension in mold-filling simulation. The proposed scheme for surface tension was based on the conti...

Planar Surface Tracking and its Applications

In the field of computer vision, a large number of area trackers have been developed. Their general purpose is to track planar surfaces. Their success depends on the amount of suitable features present in the surface, but they can also be limited by variations in illumination as well as by distortions of the surface in other ways then the tracker was designed to follow. This work compares a sel...
