Mechanical biomarkers associated with cytoskeletal structures have been reported as
powerful label‐free cell state identifiers. In order to measure cell mechanical properties …

Erosive wear is inexorable in chemical and hydrocarbon transportation systems. In this
study, the worn surface morphologies and erosive wear mechanisms were discussed to …

Microfluidic experiments and discrete particle simulations using the lattice-Boltzmann
method are used to study interactions of finite size hard spheres and vortical flow inside …

A common element in physiological flow networks, as well as most domestic and industrial
pi** systems, is a T junction that splits the flow into two nearly symmetric streams. It is …

Slurry erosion is responsible for major failures in oil and gas transmission pipelines. In this
study, slurry erosion behavior of AISI 1018, AISI 1080, API X80, API X100 and API X120 is …

Particle-fluid flow in a horizontal pipe with side holes is common but poorly understood.
Slurry flow experiments were conducted in three models. The slurry flow in the pipe was …

The laminar and transitional flow through a planar sudden expansion with various
expansion ratios is studied using two-dimensional direct numerical simulations at flow …

Mobula rays have evolved leaf-shaped filter structures to separate food particles from
seawater, which function similarly to industrial cross-flow filters. Unlike cross-flow filtration …

Single-particle trap** mechanisms into microcavities are still puzzling for size-based
particle/cell sorting in microfluidics. Aiming to verify the prediction of particle-wall collision …

Aerosol and pollutants, in form of particulates 5–8 μm in main size face every day our
respiratory system as natural suspension in air or forced to be inhaled as a coadjutant in a …
