the arithmetic mean roughness, ra, values were determined by scanning electron microscopic technique of different core models (furazolidone, nitrofurantoin and acetyl salicylic acid), coated by hpmc film forming solution containing 10 wt% of various molecular weight pegs. the results showed that both plasticizer molecular weight and core surface free energy could have a significant influence on...

This paper is concerned with the geometrical shape, wetting length, and contact angle of a microdroplet on a fiber by using the method free energy variation. The governing equation and relevant boundary conditions of the microdroplet were re-derived based on the free energy variation of the droplet/fiber system. The geometrical shape of the droplet was determined as the combination of Legendre’...

the molecular dynamics (md) simulation method is used to assess structural details for humanprion protein (hereafter prpn) and its asp178 asn mutant (hereafter prpm) which causes fatalfamilial insomnia disease. the results reveal that the flexibility and instability increase in prpmcould be related to specific amino acids exposed to the solvent. solvation free energy of prpm is 20kjmot1nni2 mor...

The literature concerning the properties of menisci is briefly reviewed and it is shown that numerical analysis using computers has led to the solution of a whole range of meniscus problems. Menisci are classified and their properties defined according to the nature and number of the supporting solid surfaces and of certain shape characteristics. The sizes and shapes of different types of menis...

introduction: the aim of this study was to investigate the scanning electron microscope (sem) analysis of tooth surface irradiated by different parameters of er:yag laser. methods: 15 caries-free extracted human third molars were used in this study. the teeth were put into 5 groups for laser irradiation as follows: group 1 (power: 2.5 w, energy: 250 mj); group 2(power: 3 w, energy: 300 mj); gro...

Abstract. A phase field model for simulating grain growth and thermal grooving in thin films is presented. Orientation dependence of the surface free energy and misorientation dependence of the grain boundary free energy are included in the model. Moreover, the model can treat different mechanisms for groove formation, namely through volume diffusion, surface diffusion, evaporation-condensation...
