Nano- and microparticles of various shapes have recently been introduced for various drug-delivery applications. Shape of particles has been shown to have an impact on various processes including circulation, vascular adhesion and phagocytosis. Here, we assess the role of particle geometry and surface chemistry in their interactions with cell membranes. Using representative particles of differe...

A compound optical system for coherent focusing and imaging at the nanoscale is reported, realised by high-gain fixed-curvature elliptical mirrors in combination with X-ray waveguide optics or different cleaning apertures. The key optical concepts are illustrated, as implemented at the Göttingen Instrument for Nano-Imaging with X-rays (GINIX), installed at the P10 coherence beamline of the PETR...

Study of permeability of Fibrous Composites is important in several natural and industrial processes in mechanical engineering. In this study, a comprehensive mathematical model is presented for calculation of normal permeability of ordered elliptical fibrous media. An innovative scale-analysis technique is employed for determining the normal permeability of elliptical fibrous media. In this te...

An elastic analysis is presented for the tensile stretching and bending of a plate containing a surface crack penetrating part-through the thickness, Fig. 1. The treatment is approximate, in that the two-dimensional generalized plane stress and KirchhoffPoisson plate bending theories are employed, with the part-through cracked section represented as a continuous line spring. The spring has both...

Abstract Stress shielding is known to cause bone refracture or low healing rate in fractured bones. The numerical study of process a transverse tibia was conducted this research reduce the stress shielding. and strain on callus were evaluated when plates different metallic non-metallic biomaterials used. Time varying material properties applied, loading conditions coupled with callus. distribut...

In this study, a D–type photonic crystal fiber (PCF) based surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor is proposed for measurement of both refractive index (RI) and temperature. The RI sensing part constructed by deposition silver layer on the plane structure, temperature formed filling nanowire liquid analyte into an elliptical hole in PCF. design then can be used through coupling between core guid...

A novel metallic elliptical nano-pinholes-based plasmonic lens was put forth for the purpose of superfocusing. Systematic investigation of the lens from design to fabrication and characterization were described in this paper. Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) enhanced transmission is theoretically analyzed using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) algorithm-based computational calculation. The...

Abstract— The flow past an infinite vertical isothermal plate started impulsively in its own plane in a viscous incompressible two-phase nanofluid has been considered by taking into account the viscous dissipative heat. Two nano particles Copper (Cu) and Alumina (Al2O3) are submerged in a base fluid, Water (H20). The coupled non-linear partial differential equations which govern the flow are so...
