Role and Effect of Meso-Structuring Surfactants on Properties and Formation Mechanism of Microfluidic-Enabled Mesoporous Silica Microspheres

We have shown in a previous work that the combination of the emulsion solvent evaporation technique and droplet-based microfluidics allows for the synthesis of well-defined monodisperse mesoporous silica microcapsules (hollow microspheres), whose…

Analysis of the Heat Transfer in Electronic Radiator Filled with Metal Foam

The performance of an electronic radiator filled with metal foam with a porosity of 96% was studied. The effect of the factors including the flow rates, the pores per linear inch (PPI) and the numbers of fins was analyzed. The results show that the…

Numerical simulations of concrete specimens with the gradient-enhanced Eikonal non-local damage model

ccurately predicting the response of structures subjected to complex loadings is a challeng-ing task in civil engineering. In particular, studying cracking nucleation and propagation is essential to as-sess structural performances. Quasi-brittle…

Numerical and analytical studies of attenuation coefficient in 2D matrix-inclusion composites with randomly distributed circular inclusions

This paper studies the analytical and numerical evaluation of the scattering-induced attenuation coefficient of elastic waves in 2D matrix-inclusion composites with a random distribution of inclusions. An analytical self-consistent homogenization…

Effects of dynamic cell culture conditions on 3D spatial reogarnization of MSCS/HUVECS spheroids in the context of bone tissue

We aim to observe the development and reorganization of MSCs and HUVECs in Pullulan/Dextran hydrogels supplied with nHAp under dynamic culture conditions in a perfusion bioreactor.

Perfusion of MC3T3E1 Preosteoblast Spheroids within Polysaccharide-Based Hydrogel Scaffolds: An Experimental and Numerical Study at the Bioreactor Scale

The traditional 3D culture systems in vitro lack the biological and mechanical spatiotemporal stimuli characteristic to native tissue development. In our study, we combined porous polysaccharide-based hydrogel scaffolds with a bioreactor-type…
