aquaporins are integral membrane proteins from a larger family of major intrinsic proteins that formpores in the membrane of biological cells. aquaporins form tetramers in the cell membrane with eachmonomer acting as a water channel.in this research, the aqp4 tetramer was modeled from its pdbstructure file, then, we have performed the intraction of aquaporin4 in different temperatures (298k,300...

o bjectives: this study sought to assess distal and lateral forces and moments of asymmetric headgears by variable outer bow lengths. materials and methods : four 3d finite element method (fem) models of a cer- vical headgear attached to the maxillary first molars were designed in solidworks2010 software and transferred to ansys workbench ver. 11 software. modelscontained the first molars, thei...

the drilling is well known as one of the most common hole making processes in the industry.due to close tolerance requirement for drilled holes in the most of work pieces, onlinecontrolling of the diameter of drilled holes seems to be necessary. in the current work, an onlinedimensional controlling system was developed for drilling process. doing this, drilling processwas executed in different ...

This paper presents a mathematical model for the vibration analysis of a three-component piezoelectric force sensor. The cubic theory of weakly nonlinear electroelasticity is applied to the model for describing the electromechanical coupling effect in the piezoelectric sensing elements which operate in thickness-shear and thickness-stretch vibration modes. Hamilton's principle is used to derive...

in this paper, surface roughness of ht29 cancerous is determined using topography images obtained by atimic force microscopy (afm). the mean radiuses of cell and substrate surface asperities are determined, based on results of conducted roughness analysis and rabinovich roughness theory. these values have been applied in the equations of rough particle nanomanipulation dynamic model and the amo...

Wettability of sedimentary rock surface is an essential parameter that defines oil recovery and production rates a reservoir. The discovery wettability alteration in reservoirs, as well complications occur analysis heterogeneous sample, such shale, for instance, have prompted scientists to look the methods assessment at nanoscale. At same time, bulk techniques, which are commonly applied, USBM ...

Effect of interparticle force on the hydrodynamics of gas-solid fluidized beds was investigated using the combined method of computational fluid dynamics and discrete element method (CFD-DEM). The cohesive force between particles was considered to follow the van der Waals equation form. The model was validated by experimental results from literature in terms of bed voidage distribution and Eule...
