Maximizing the displacement of compact planar dielectric elastomer actuators

Herbert Shea, Samuel Rosset, Oluwaseun Adelowo Araromi

We present a model and its experimental validation for the optimization of the in-plane displacement of a rigid platform mounted on a compact dielectric elastomer actuator. Unlike the situation in which the mechanical prestretch of the membrane is maintain ...

Electronic and magnetic interactions in single molecular and atomic contacts

Verena Katharina Schendel

This thesis encompasses an investigation of organic molecules on metallic substrates as well as a study of electronic and magnetic effects in atomic-sized palladium contacts. For this, a scanning tunneling microscope, operating at 6 K and ultra-high vacuum ...

Prolonged river water pollution due to variable-density flow and solute transport in the riverbed

David Andrew Barry

A laboratory experiment and numerical modeling were used to examine effects of density gradients on hyporheic flow and solute transport under the condition of a solute pulse input to a river with regular bed forms. Relatively low-density gradients due to a ...

Selective transport control on molecular velcro made from intrinsically disordered proteins

Sylvia Jeney

The selectivity and speed of many biological transport processes(1) transpire from a 'reduction of dimensionality'(2) that confines diffusion to one or two dimensions instead of three(3). This behaviour remains highly sought after on polymeric surfaces(4) ...

A new model for biomineralization and trace-element signatures of Foraminifera tests

Anders Meibom

The Mg/Ca ratio of Foraminifera calcium carbonate tests is used as proxy for seawater temperature and widely applied to reconstruct global paleo-climatic changes. However, the mechanisms involved in the carbonate biomineralization process are poorly unders ...

Measurement of absolute cell volume, osmotic membrane water permeability, and refractive index of transmembrane water and solute flux by digital holographic microscopy

Pierre Magistretti, Christian Depeursinge, Pierre Marquet, Pascal Jourdain, Daniel Boss

A dual-wavelength digital holographic microscope to measure absolute volume of living cells is proposed. The optical setup allows us to reconstruct two quantitative phase contrast images at two different wavelengths from a single hologram acquisition. When ...

Dynamic Cellular Uptake of Mixed-Monolayer Protected Nanoparticles

Francesco Stellacci, Randy Patrick Carney, Tamara Michael Carney, Marie Mueller

Nanoparticles (NPs) are gaining increasing attention for potential application in medicine; consequently, studying their interaction with cells is of central importance. We found that both ligand arrangement and composition on gold nanoparticles play a cru ...

Solute transport in partially-saturated deformable porous media: Application to a landfill clay liner

David Andrew Barry

Based on the one-dimensional Biot consolidation equations, this paper developed an advection-diffusion equation that incorporates saturation, compressibility of the pore fluid and longitudinal dispersivity of the solute transport in an unsaturated, deformi ...
