High Pressure Bioscience. Phospholipid Bilayer Membranes under High Pressure.

High performance under pressure.

Nanomaterials under high-pressure.

The use of high-pressure for the study and elaboration of homogeneous nanostructures is critically reviewed. Size effects, the interaction between nanostructures and guest species or the interaction of the nanosystem with the pressure transmitting medium are emphasized. Phase diagrams and the possibilities opened by the combination of pressure and temperature for the elaboration of new nanomate...

Breathing under high ambient pressure.

LORD, GEORGE P., GEORGE F. BOND, AND KARL E. SCHAEFER. Breathing under high ambient pressure. J. Appl. Physiol. 21 (6): 1833-1838. 1966.—The acute effect of high ambient pressure on expiratory airflow was studied in healthy adult males in the ambient pressure range from 1.0 to 7.0 atmospheres absolute pressure (Ata) using a hyperbaric chamber. Changes in flow were assessed with the maximum expi...

Failure Pressure of Bilayer Lipid Membranes

The motion and growth of plants is the inspiration for a new biomimetic actuator that uses fluid transport across a bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) to create internal pressure and cause displacement in the actuator. In order for the actuator to be viable the BLM must be able to withstand this internal pressure without failing. In this study BLMs are formed over a porous polycarbonate substrate and...

DYNAMIC SIMULATION OF A HIGH PRESSURE REGULATOR

In this paper, the dynamic simulation for a high pressure regulator is performed to obtain the regulator behavior. To analyze the regulator performance, the equation of motion for inner parts, the continuity equation for diverse chambers and the equation for mass flow rate were derived. Because of nonlinearity and coupling, these equations are solved using numerical methods and the results are ...
