The endogenous reactive oxygen species ("ROS") formation is associated with many pathologic states such as inflammatory diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, brain and heart ischemic injuries, cancer, and aging. The purpose of this study was to investigate the endogenous sources for "ROS" formation in intact isolated rat hepatocytes, in particular, peroxisomal oxidases, monoamine oxidase, xanth...

Several important manufacturing processes for integrated circuits (ICs) involve the flow of gaseous reactants over the wafer(s) on which the ICs are being made. We discuss a model in which reactive components of the gas phase do not collide; either because there is a dominant carrier species, or the pressure is low enough. The kinetic transport and reaction model consists of a system of transie...

Boltzmann Transport Equation [1-2] has been modelled in close conjunction with Maxwell’s equation, investigations for 2D and 3D transport carriers have been proposed. Exact solution of Boltzmann Equation still remains the core field of research. We have worked towards evaluation of 2D and 3D solutions of BTE. Application of our work can be extended to study the electromagnetic wave transport in...

We report results of a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) effort of turbulent compressible nonpremixed reactive jets. It is well known that there are several difficulties associated with compressible reactive flows in comparison with incompressible flows. In incompressible flows, the energy and mass conservation (for constant density flows) equations are decoupled from the velocity field. Moreover, th...

Polymerizable liquid crystalline semiconductors, referred to as reactive mesogens RMs , consist of -conjugated cores with reactive end groups decoupled by an aliphatic spacer. These can be polymerized within the mesophase, maintaining the self-assembled morphology and charge transport characteristics. The polymerized films can then be used in organic electronic applications such as charge trans...

the transport of dissolved contaminants in groundwater is usually described by the advectiondispersion equation with reaction. several numerical methods for solving the one-dimensional are availableincluding finite difference methods, finite volume methods, and finite element methods. stringent conditions,such as small peclet (pe) and courant (cr) numbers, must be satisfied to ensure the accura...

Sandy sediments of tidal beaches are poor in reactive substances because they are regularly flushed by significant flow caused by tidal forcing. This transport process may significantly affect the flux of reactive solutes to the ocean. A two dimensional model coupling the Richards equation that describes the flow in permeable sediments and the conservation equation of the silicic acid was devel...
