We have performed molecular dynamics simulations of liquid water at 298 and 258 K to investigate the effects of hydrogen-bond environment on various single-particle and pair dynamical properties of water molecules at ambient and supercooled conditions. The water molecules are modelled by the extended simple point charge (SPC/E) model. We first calculate the distribution of hydrogen-bond environ...

In this paper, the non-linear dynamic response of rectangular atomic force microscopy in tapping mode is considered. The effect of cantilever’s geometrical parameters (e.g., cantilever length, width, thickness, tip length and the angle between the cantilever and the sample's surface in liquid environment has been studied by taking into account the interaction forces. Results indicate that the r...

We review the study of inhomogeneous perturbations about a homogeneous and isotropic background cosmology. We adopt a coordinate based approach, but give geometrical interpretations of metric perturbations in terms of the expansion, shear and curvature of constant-time hypersurfaces and the orthogonal timelike vector field. We give the gauge transformation rules for metric and matter variables ...

INTRODUCTION Line type blood-liquid warmers are used widely due to their low expense, practical use and nondependence on sets. We aimed to investigate the relationship of bubbles in line type warmers with two different warming properties. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two groups were designed with S-line and Astoflo(®) brand blood-liquid warmers. By using 10 medisets for each group (n = 20), we infus...

This front cover conceptually demonstrates a biomimetic cellular-eating phenomenon in roomtemperature liquid metal which is called Liquid Metal Phagocytosis. During the process, tiny liquid metal “cells” intake micro or nano metal particles in an aqueous environment upon applying an electrical polarization or other excitations. The underlying mechanisms are discussed in article number 1700024 b...

A lipophilic linear Fe(II) complex is dispersed as nanofibers in nematic liquid crystals and displays spin-crossover at temperatures higher than those observed for the bulk crystalline state; thermal bistability is also induced in the liquid crystal environment, reflecting increased ligand field splitting energy and enhanced cooperativity by liquid crystals.

This paper examines how liquid place can be created using three specific qualities: curiosity, questioning, and awareness. Three contexts were examined and analyzed to learn how to create liquid place and how to enhance learning in any given environment.
