The finite-temperature yield stress of Mg-Al alloys undergoing basal slip is investigated using a recently developed parameter-free solute strengthening model. The model takes input from first-principles calculations of the dislocation/solute interaction e ...
The delivery of exogenous nucleic acids into mammalian cells is a valuable technique for basic research studies on the expression, regulation and function of genes and proteins. At the same time, gene delivery to cultivated mammalian cells has become funda ...
Cell migration is a fundamental process in all animal cells. The ability of cell to migrate is crucial for many pathological and physiological conditions such as morphogenesis, the immune response to inflammatory or vascular diseases and cancer metastasis. ...
A review is presented concerning the exploitation of spectral information carried by probe pulse. The method reviewed allow observing changes and dynamics of the solute mol. structure in polar solvents. ...
Flow in a elbow draft tube is a turbulent complex unsteady flow caused by its rotating nature and the draft tube's geometry. The understanding of the main phenomena that could appear near the BEP and at off-design conditions is important to master the inst ...

The multiscale finite-volume (MSFV) method has been derived to efficiently solve large problems with spatially varying coefficients. The fine-scale problem is subdivided into local problems that can be solved separately and are coupled by a global problem. ...
In this study nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (nHA) was synthesized and characterized by means of FT-IR, XRD and TEM techniques and a series of proton exchange membranes based on Nafion (R) and nHA were fabricated via solvent casting method. Thermogravimetr ...
Small density variations due to low solute concentrations in the stream water commonly exist in streams and rivers. Using laboratory experiments and numerical modeling, we demonstrated that even such small density variations could influence the hyporheic f ...
Flow numerical simulations in a low specific speed radial pump-turbine scale model are performed to investigate off-design operating conditions in generating mode. The Best Efficiency Point (BEP) and the runaway operating conditions at 10° guide vanes open ...
Poor cyclic performance of electrodes in lithium-ion rechargeable cell batteries is calling for efforts to develop continuum models of diffusion under very large stresses and high solute concentrations. The present work is aimed to develop such a model bas ...
