Separation of two categories of cells in pinched flow fractionation(PFF) device is simulated by employing IB-LBM. The separation performances at low Reynolds number (about 1) under different pinched segment widths, flow ratios, cell features, and distances between neighboring cells are studied and the results are compared with those predicted by the empirical formula. The simulation indicates t...

The homotropenylium cation (1, C8H9 ) is a key species in the discussion of homoaromaticity. Constrained optimisations around the minimum structure have been performed, varying the size of the gap spanned by the CH2-bridge and optimising all other geometrical parameters. At each bridging distance, ab initio currentdensity maps have been calculated and plotted using the ipsocentric approach. Ana...
