We construct a SU(N) membrane B ∧ F theory with dual pairs of scalar and tensor fields. The moduli space of the theory is precisely that of N M2-branes on the noncompact flat space. The theory possesses explicit SO(8) invariance and is an extension of the maximal SU(N) super-Yang-Mills theory.

Spacers are used in spiral wound and plate and frame membrane modules to create flow channels between adjacent membrane layers and mix fluid within the flow channel. Flow through the spacer has a significant beneficial impact on mixing and resulting mass transfer rates but is accompanied by an undesirable increase in pressure drop. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a common tool used to eva...

We present a novel idea of the deployment circular solar sail consisting superconducting wire attached to thin membrane. Based on classical electrodynamics and theory elasticity we predict that current in can deploy large size sail. • Deployment using loop. stretching Magnetic force due magnetic field induced by current.

This research investigated stability of two novel aminated polyphenylene polymers as anion exchange layers in bipolar membranes. Bipolar membrane stability was tested under operating conditions of 50 mA/cm2, and under conditions of soaking in room temperature 1 M NaOH. The stability of the custom made bipolar membranes was compared with those for two commercial membranes. For the polyphenylene-...

Biological, physical, medical, and numerical applications involving membrane problems on different scales are numerous. We propose an extension of the standard Turing theory to case two domains separated by a permeable membrane. To this aim, we study reaction–diffusion system with zero-flux boundary conditions external Kedem-Katchalsky inner use same approach as in classical analysis but applie...

We present a continuum model trained on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for cellular membranes composed of an arbitrary number lipid types. The is constructed within the formalism dynamic density functional theory and can be extended to include features such as presence proteins membrane deformations. This framework represents paradigm shift by enabling that access length scales order micro...

An exact quantization of the spherical membrane moving in flat target spacetime backgrounds is performed. Crucial ingredients are the exact integrabilty of the 3D SU (∞) continuous Toda equation and the quasi-finite highest weight irreducible representations of W ∞ algebras. Both continuous and discrete energy levels are found. The latter are found for periodic-like solutions. Membrane wavefunc...
