Conventional linear stability analyses may fail for fluid systems with an indefinite free-energy functional. When such a system is linearly stable, it is said to possess negative energy modes. Instability may then occur either via dissipation of the negative energy modes, or nonlinearly via resonant wave-wave coupling, leading to explosive growth. In the dissipationless case, it is conjectured ...

electrospinning was applied to nitrocellulose (nc) solutions  in dmf, dmso  and  ethyl  methyl  keton  to  obtain  nc  nanofibers. electrospraying  process  was  observed  when  dmf  was  used  as solvent.  in  comparison  to nc/dmf, nc/dmso  solution  resulted  in the  formation  of  a  coating  film  as  indicate  by  sem.  two  different electrospun  nanofibers,  smooth  nanofibers  with  90...

introduction acute poisoning by oral ingestion of mixed hazardous materials can lead to multiorgan toxicity and may represent a special challenge in clinical management, in particular if little is known about the effects of the involved agents. this is especially true when industrial chemical substances have been swallowed, as a huge variety of toxic substances must be taken into account. concl...

being seen in soldiers who survive such catastrophic injuries[6]. The destructive extent of an explosion is dependent on the nature of the device and the proximity of the soldier when it detonates[7]. In contrast to other forms of weapon (ie firearms), explosive devices have the capacity to injure multiple victims simultaneously by a variety of different mechanisms. Detonation of an explosive d...

Surface cleaning using cavitation bubble dynamics is investigated numerically through modeling of bubble dynamics, dirt particle motion, and fluid material interaction. Three fluid dynamics models; a potential flow model, a viscous model, and a compressible model, are used to describe the flow field generated by the bubble all showing the strong effects bubble explosive growth and collapse have...

Fluid migration pathways in the subsurface are heavily influenced by pre-existing faults. Although studies of active fluid-escape structures can provide insights into the relationships between faults and fluid flow, they cannot fully constrain the geometry of and controls on the contemporaneous subsurface fluid flow pathways. We use 3D seismic reflection data from offshore NW Australia to map 1...
