Deformation and breakup of a liquid drop immersed in another immiscible flowing through single pore has been studied numerically using conservative phase-field lattice Boltzmann method. Several benchmarks were conducted to validate the code, including recovery Laplace pressure, layered flow two liquids, implementation wetting boundary conditions on curved surface. Gravity-driven motion space wa...

It is shown that rare earths can be distributed between two immiscible ionic liquids, allowing the transfer of the rare earths from one ionic liquid phase to another. The ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride was used as the initial feed phase and the ionic liquid trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium bis(2,4,4trimethylpentyl)phosphinate (Cyphos IL 104) as the extracting phase. The rare e...

In the course of animal morphogenesis, large-scale cell movements occur, which involve the rearrangement, mutual spreading, and compartmentalization of cell populations in specific configurations. Morphogenetic cell rearrangements such as cell sorting and mutual tissue spreading have been compared with the behaviors of immiscible liquids, which they closely resemble. Based on this similarity, i...

The possibility to extract properties of an interface between two immiscible liquids, e.g., electrolyte solutions or polyelectrolyte multilayers, by means of impedance spectroscopy is investigated theoretically within a dynamic density-functional theory which is equivalent to the Nernst-Planck-Poisson theory. An approach based on a two-step fitting procedure of an equivalent circuit to impedanc...

Earth's core is composed primarily of iron (Fe) with about 10% by weight of lighter elements. The lighter elements are progressively enriched in the liquid outer core as the core cools and the inner core crystallizes. Thermodynamic modeling of Fe-O-S liquids shows that immiscible liquids can exist at outer-core pressures (136 to 330 gigapascals) at temperatures below 5200 kelvin and lead to lay...

During embryonic development, certain tissues stream to their destinations by liquidlike spreading movements. According to the 'differential adhesion hypothesis', these movements are guided by cell-adhesion-generated tissue surface tensions (sigmas), operating in the same manner as surface tensions do in the mutual spreading behavior of immiscible liquids, among which the liquid of lower surfac...

In this paper, we discuss findings from a collaborative self-study conducted on enacting blended approach (i.e. consisting of online and in-person components) to Physical Education Teacher (PETE) course. Data consisted reflective journals recorded conversations. We examine assumptions about the structure, content, pedagogies “blended” approaches using metaphor miscibility, where liquids mix for...

Arrays of nanoscale interfaces between immiscible electrolyte solutions were formed using silicon nitride nanopore array membranes. Nanopores in the range from 75 nm radius down to 17 nm radius were used to form the nano-interfaces. It was found that the liquid organic phase electrolyte solution filled the pores so that inlaid nano-interfaces were formed with the aqueous phase. Cyclic voltammet...
