Experiments with Liquid Bridges in Simulated Microgravity
A feature of stability diagrams of liquid bridges between unequal disks subjected to small axial gravity forces is that, for each separation of disks, there is a value of microgravity for which an absolute minimum volume limit is reached. The dependence of such microgravity values on the liquid bridge geometry has been experimentally checked by using the neutral buoyancy technique, experimental...
متن کاملSimulated microgravity-induced aortic remodeling.
We have previously shown that microgravity and simulated microgravity induce an increase in human and rat aortic stiffness. We attempted to elucidate the mechanism(s) responsible for this increase in stiffness. We hypothesize that an alteration in vessel wall collagen or elastin content or in extracellular matrix (ECM) cross-linking either individually or in a combination is responsible for the...
متن کاملSimulated microgravity decreases apoptosis in fetal fibroblasts.
Space travel is a major challenge for human beings. Especially, the mechanisms through which space conditions might alter animal development have been questioned for a long time. The two major physical stress factors that are of relevance in this context are space radiation and weightlessness. While it has been extensively shown that high doses of ionizing radiation induce deleterious effects o...
متن کاملMultiple Liquid Bridges with Non-Smooth Interfaces
We consider a coexistence of two axisymmetric liquid bridges LBi and LBm of two immiscible liquids i and m which are immersed in a third liquid (or gas) e and trapped between two smooth solid bodies with axisymmetric surfaces S1, S2 and free contact lines. Evolution of liquid bridges allows two different configurations of LBi and LBm with multiple (five or three) interfaces of non-smooth shape....
