Enhancing boundary slip using interfacial nanobubbles (INBs) has gained significant interest in nanofluidic transport. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive investigation on the influence of INBs on boundary conditions for both smooth and rough substrates using molecular dynamics...

Amniotic membrane (AM) transplantation is increasingly used in ophthalmological and dermatological surgeries to promote re-epithelialization and wound healing. Biologically active cells in the epithelial and stromal layers deliver growth factors and cytokines with anti-inflammatory,...

Large articular cartilage defects have proven difficult to treat and often result in osteoarthritis of the affected joint. Cryopreservation of articular cartilage can provide an increased supply of tissues for osteochondral allograft but cryoprotective agents are required; however, few studies...

Background Vitrification is a method of cryopreservation by which cells and tissues can be preserved at low temperatures using cryoprotective agents (CPAs) at high concentrations (typically ⩾6.0 M) to limit the harmful effects of ice crystals that can form during cooling processes. However, at...

Mixing conditions were explored as a possible avenue for improvement of demulsifier performance in solvent diluted bitumen de-watering process. The effects of demulsifier bulk concentration, demulsifier injection concentration and mixing energy on water and solids removal from the oil phase were...

The dendrite growth velocity in Al75Ni25 melts has been measured in a containerless procedure as a function of undercooling using an electromagnetic levitation technique both in the Earth laboratory and in Space on board the International Space Station. The growth shows an anomalous behavior...

Addition of Sc to Al-Cu is reported to be responsible for a high precipitation hardening upon heat treatment and serves as a good grain refiner. However, Scandium is presently very expensive, therefore, getting maximum benefit from a minimum addition would be economically of value. This work...

Downhole tools made of dissolvable alloys (DAs) are getting more attractive, especially with the difficulties that arise from drilling wellbores with longer lateral distances. To date, most of the DAs are based on Al alloys (AAs) or Mg alloys, which offer undesirable mechanical properties. This...

Vitrification of articular cartilage (AC) could enhance tissue availability but requires high concentrations of cyroprotective agents (CPAs). This study investigated relative injuries caused by commonly used CPAs. We hypothesized that the in situ chondrocyte dose–injury relationships of five...
