Coalescence of surfactant-laden droplets

Droplet coalescence is an important process in nature and various technologies (e.g., inkjet printing). Here, we unveil the surfactant mass transport mechanism and report on several major differences in the coalescence of surfactant-laden droplets…

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…

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.
