Capillary forces between surfaces with nanoscale roughness.
The flow and adhesion behavior of fine powders (approx. less than 10 microm) is significantly affected by the magnitude of attractive interparticle forces. Hence, the relative humidity and magnitude of capillary forces are critical parameters in the processing of these materials. In this investigation, approximate theoretical formulae are developed to predict the magnitude and onset of capillar...
متن کاملRoughness of sandpile surfaces.
We study the surface roughness of prototype models displaying self-organized criticality (SOC) and their noncritical variants in one dimension. For SOC systems, we find that two seemingly equivalent definitions of surface roughness yield different asymptotic scaling exponents. Using approximate analytical arguments and extensive numerical studies we conclude that this ambiguity is due to the sp...
متن کاملRoughness of fracture surfaces
We study the fracture surface of three dimensional samples through a model for quasi-static fractures known as Born Model. In particular, we consider the roughness of this fracture surface. We find for the roughness exponent a value ζ = 0.5 expected for “small length scales” in microfracturing experiments. Since this corresponds to a slow evolution for the fracture, our simulations confirm that...
متن کاملOlfactory discrimination in the rabbit olfactory glomerulus.
Slow potentials evoked by odor stimulation were recorded from individual glomeruli in the olfactory bulb. Systematic analysis of responses to nine different, arbitrarily selected stimuli strongly suggests a certain amount of discrimination. This fact seems to reflect in the first synapse of the olfactory tract the type of discrimination that was recently demonstrated within olfactory neuroepith...
متن کاملRoughness discrimination in cats with dorsal column lesions.
The anatomical and functional integrity of the dorsal columns (DC) of the spinal cord has generally been considered essential for the preservation of refined somesthetic spatial discriminative capacity 17. Recent experimental studies 6,11,12,1s and clinical observations2, 3 have prompted challenges 24 to this traditional view. In dogs, a conditioned reflex to light touch (air puff) of the hindl...
