Passive sampling relies on the uptake of contaminants into appropriate sampling devices along a diffusion gradient without using pumps or bailers. Thus, for example, in groundwater sampling, changes to flow due to pumping can be avoided. If the diffusion g ...
Although a rigorous definition of growth-limiting substrate relies on a kinetic anal., a simple stoichiometric anal. based on the calcn. of the conversion is more applicable. Anal. of single and dual limitations is based on a simulated example for a substr ...
The study of the sediment transport in open-channel as well as in river flow is of great importance for fluvial hydraulics. While the transport of sedimentary particles at the bed, as the bed-load, has been the subject of much research, less attention has ...
One-dimensional drying of a porous building material is modelled as a nonlinear diffusion process. The most difficult case of strong surface drying when an internal drying front is created is treated in particular. Simple analytical formulae for the drying ...
Light propagation in two-layered turbid media having an infinitely thick second layer is investigated in the steady-state, frequency, and time domains. A solution of the diffusion approximation to the transport equation is derived by employing the extrapol ...
A transport equation is derived which describes the behavior of the nanostructured metal oxide films in a photoelectrochem. cell. A detailed anal. of the charge compensation mechanism necessarily leads to a transport equation with characteristics similar t ...
A longstanding problem in the study of sediment transport in gravel-bed rivers is related to the physical mechanisms governing bed resistance and particle motion. To study this problem, we investigated the motion of coarse spherical glass beads entrained b ...
Broadband transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy, three-pulse photon echo peak shift (3PEPS), and anisotropy decay measurements were used to study the solvation dynamics in bulk water and interfacial water at ZrO2 surfaces, using Eosin Y as a probe. The 3P ...
A view of recent experimental results and progress in the characterization of the statistical properties of edge turbulence in fusion plasmas is given. The study of the dynamical interplay between fluctuations in gradients, turbulent transport and radial e ...
The thermal position fluctuations of a single micron-sized sphere immersed in a fluid were recorded by optical trapping interferometry with nanometer spatial and microsecond temporal resolution. We find, in accord with the theory of Brownian motion includi ...
