LCHF: response to Drs Boyles and Wasserman.
95 February 2014, Vol. 104, No. 2 LCHF: Response to Drs Boyles and Wasserman To the Editor: In their recent correspondence to the SAMJ,[1] Drs Boyles and Wasserman make four points regarding my survey on low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LCHF) intake published in the November issue of the SAMJ.[2] First, that my paper suffers from ‘major methodological flaws that are irreconcilable with basic scienti...
متن کاملCapillarity effects on crystallization kinetics: insulin.
During layerwise growth of crystals, capillarity governs the generation of new crystal layers. Theory predicts that the line tension of the layer edge determines, via the characteristic two-dimensional capillary length L(c), the rates of generation and initial growth of the new layers. To test the correlation between L(c) and the rate of layer generation, we used in situ Tapping Mode Atomic For...
متن کاملCapillarity-based switchable adhesion.
Drawing inspiration from the adhesion abilities of a leaf beetle found in nature, we have engineered a switchable adhesion device. The device combines two concepts: The surface tension force from a large number of small liquid bridges can be significant (capillarity-based adhesion) and these contacts can be quickly made or broken with electronic control (switchable). The device grabs or release...
متن کاملInverse Saffman-Taylor Experiments with Particles Lead to Capillarity Driven Fingering Instabilities.
Using air to displace a viscous fluid contained in a Hele-Shaw cell can create a fingering pattern at the interface between the fluids if the capillary number exceeds a critical value. This Saffman-Taylor instability is revisited for the inverse case of a viscous fluid displacing air when partially wettable hydrophilic particles are lying on the walls. Though the inverse case is otherwise stabl...
متن کاملCapillarity and dynamic wetting
In this thesis capillary dominated two–phase flow is studied by means of numerical simulations and experiments. The theoretical basis for the simulations consists of a phase field model, which is derived from the system’s thermodynamics, and coupled with the Navier Stokes equations. Two types of interfacial flow are investigated, droplet dynamics in a bifurcating channel and spontaneous capilla...
