The objective of this work was to assess the accuracy of various coupled mesoscale-microscale wind flow modeling methodologies for wind energy applications. This is achieved by examining and comparing mean wind speeds from several wind flow modeling methodologies with observational measurements from several 50 m met towers distributed across the study area. At the mesoscale level, with a 5 km r...

Here we report a thermodynamic analysis of biomolecular interactions using MicroScale Thermophoresis (MST). Using DNA hybridization with fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides as a well-characterized model system, we monitor the shift in the dissociation (Kd) constant of the interaction over a range of temperatures and calculate the free enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) for the hybridization reac...

Providing a clear description of the theory of polydisperse multiphase flows, with emphasis on the mesoscale modeling approach and its relationship with microscale and macroscale models, this all-inclusive introduction is ideal, whether you are working in industry or academia. Theory is linked to practice through discussions of key real-world cases (particle/droplet/bubble coalescence, breakup,...
