Numerous analyses on the mass transfer phenomena and hydrodynamics for the fluid adjacent to the membrane have been studied and visualized by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) mathematical modeling and simulation. The availability of CFD simulation study to reveal the concentration polarization profile in the membrane channel, which considering hydrodynamics and membrane transport properties i...

The plant hormone auxin mediates developmental patterning by a mechanism that is based on active transport. In the shoot apical meristem, auxin gradients are thought to be set up through a feedback loop between auxin and the activity and polar localization of its transporter, the PIN1 protein. Two distinct molecular mechanisms for the subcellular polarization of PIN1 have been proposed. For lea...

The surge of electric vehicle deployment in response to the global climate crisis has marked tremendous increase demand lithium-ion batteries. Lithium brine gained much attention as a critical primary lithium resource over mineral sources due cheaper processing and greater abundance. However, reducing Mg2+:Li+ ratio brines remains challenge, magnesium contaminates precipitates. Solar evaporatio...

To clarify the nature of photonic band gaps, a series of calculations on two-dimensional photonic crystals is undertaken. Systems that possess a large gap for one polarization and no gap for the other polarization are analyzed. Two features of a photonic crystal that give rise to a large photonic band gap for each polarization, i.e., connectivity and concentration of the dielectric material, ar...

Pervaporation is considered a clean and energetically efficient process used for a wide range of applications, working separately or integrated nto a hybrid process. In this work, a mathematical model has been developed accounting for the mass transport phenomena under non-isothermal onditions with strong contribution of polarization concentration that prevail in pervaporation systems. The math...
