Neurometabolic profiles of bile duct ligated rats after the treatment with an urease inhibitor – 1H MRS dataset
Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Dunja Simicic
1H MRS in the cerebellum was used to study the effect of 2-octynohydroxamic acid (2-octynoHA) treatment on the brain of bile duct ligated (BDL) rats (type C hepatic encephalopathy). The study included four groups of rats: negative control group (rats recei ...
Zenodo2023Single emulsion drops for photocatalytic water splitting as a membrane-free approach to product separation
Sophia Haussener, Esther Amstad, Gaia De Angelis, Sangram Ashok Savant, Swarnava Nandy
The coevolution of hydrogen and oxygen during photocatalytic water splitting presents a challenge for efficient product separation. Here, we demonstrate membrane-free, drop-based photocatalytic water splitting with inherent product separation and competiti ...
2023Percolation and phase behavior in cellulose nanocrystal suspensions from nonlinear rheological analysis
We examine the influence of surface charge on the percolation, gel-point and phase behavior of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) suspensions in relation to their nonlinear rheological material response. Desulfation decreases CNC surface charge density which lead ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2023Hydrodynamic and geometric effects in the sedimentation of model run-and-tumble microswimmers
The sedimentation process in an active suspension is the result of the competition between gravity and the autonomous motion of particles. We carry out simulations of run-and-tumble squirmers that move in a fluid medium, focusing on the dependence of the n ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2022Active microrheology in corrugated channels: Comparison of thermal and colloidal baths
Hypothesis: The dynamics of colloidal suspension confined within porous materials strongly differs from that in the bulk. In particular, within porous materials, the presence of boundaries with complex shapes entangles the longitudinal and transverse degre ...
ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE2022Eulerian simulation of complex suspensions and biolocomotion in three dimensions
We present a numerical method specifically designed for simulating three-dimensional fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems based on the reference map technique (RMT). The RMT is a fully Eulerian FSI numerical method that allows fluids and large-deform ...
NATL ACAD SCIENCES2022Biomechanics at the workplace under hypogravity conditions
The main goal of my research is to establish guidelines for workplace design based on human biomechanics: specifically sitting workplaces and handling areas in 1/6G-1/3G (Moon, Mars) conditions. Such a workplace could be used in long-term space missions in ...
EPFL2022A snowfall downscaling scheme for mountainous terrain
In mountainous terrain, the spatial and temporal variability of the snow cover is driven by the interaction of meteorological processes with the underlying topography. Typically, terrain-precipitation-wind interactions predominantly shape the spatial snow ...
2021Force Reduction in a Short-Stroke Vibration Tubular Generator for Vehicle Energy Harvesting Application
This paper examines methods to reduce the detent force and electromagnetic force in a short-stroke vibration tubular generator used to harvest energy from a vehicle suspension system but still achieve the design targets of power and power density. A well-k ...
2020Loopy Levy flights enhance tracer diffusion in active suspensions
A theoretical framework describing the hydrodynamic interactions between a passive particle and an active medium in out-of-equilibrium systems predicts long-range Levy flights for the diffusing particle driven by the density of the active component. Browni ...
