We demonstrate and validate predictive pore-scale modeling: we start with three-dimensional images of small rock samples obtained using micro-CT scanning with a resolution of a few microns, extract networks from these images and then predict multiphase flow properties by simulating capillary-controlled displacement. We study two sand packs, a poorly consolidated sandstone, Berea sandstone and a...

the potential sources of cr (vi) are various effluents from metallurgy, electroplating, leather tanning, textile dyeing, paint, ink, and aluminum manufacturing industries. these industrial effluents can contain cr (vi), in the concentration range of 10 to 100 mg/l (nakano et al 2000), which is much higher than the standard limit; 0.5 mg/l in industrial wastewater (epa). in aqueous systems, chro...

This data article provides further detailed information related to our research article titled "Microfabricated Blood Vessels Undergo Neovascularization" (DiVito et al., 2017) [1], in which we report fabrication of human blood vessels using hydrodynamic focusing (HDF). Hydrodynamic focusing with advection inducing chevrons were used in concert to encase one fluid stream within another, shaping ...

The hydrodynamic description of trickle flow is a complex field of study. One of the main contributors to the complexity is the existence of multiple hydrodynamic states (MHS). As early as 1978, Kan & Greenfield reported different pressure drop and holdup readings for the same liquid and gas feed rates. The study revealed that the flow history experienced by the bed determined the specific hydr...

one of the most common endocrine disorders in women of reproductive age is polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) which its prevalence is reported around 6.5-8% (1). some clinical trials assessed association between pcos and other autoimmune related endocrinopathies such as impaired glucose tolerance (igt), type 2 diabetes mellitus and thyroid dysfunction with controversial results (2). some investig...

methods, intensive efforts have been undertaken to supplement the scarcity of hydrogeological data with densely We combine electromagnetic inversion of ground penetrating radar sampled geophysical data (Beres and Haeni, 1991; Ru(GPR) signals with hydrodynamic inverse modeling to identify the effective soil hydraulic properties of a sand in laboratory conditions. bin et al., 1992; Hubbard et al....
