The present investigation entails a procedure by which the surface tension and viscosity of liquids could be redicted.To this end, capillary experiments were performed for porous media by utilizing fifteen different liquids and powders. The time of capillary rise to a certain known height of each liquid in a particular powder was recorded. Two artificial neural networks (ANNs) were...

Systems and methods for cutting materials are disclosed herein In some embodiments, methods of at least partially severing a capillary vessel can include: focusing a laser on a predetermined point on the capillary vessel, said capillary vessel containing a biological sample; and cutting the capillary vessel using a laser at the predetermined point. In some embodiments, the methods further can i...

Miniaturized, portable instrumentation has been gaining popularity in all areas of analytical chemistry. Capillary electrophoresis (CE), due to its main strengths of high separation efficiency, relatively short analysis time and low consumption of chemicals, is a particularly suitable technique for use in portable analytical instrumentation. In line with the general trend in miniaturization in ...

BACKGROUND Capillary leakage with fluid loss into the third space contributes to many of the early systemic complications in severe acute pancreatitis. There has been increasing interest in endothelin as one of the factors affecting capillary permeability. AIM To elucidate further the role of endothelin in the development of capillary leakage in acute pancreatitis by investigating the effect ...

A theoretical model is developed to simulate the flow of blood through the capillary network in a single alveolar septum. The objective is to study the influence of random variability in capillary dimension and compliance on flow patterns and pressures within the network. The capillary bed is represented as an interconnected rectangular grid of capillary segments and junctions; blood flow is pr...

The blood capillary Hemorheological studies of the plasmatic zone Homeostasis of endoendothelial fibrination and fibrinolysis The EEFL as an integral part of the microstructure of the blood capillary wall Cement fibrin Evidence for the physiological presence of the EEFL On the antagonism between capillary permeability and capillary fragility Capillary permeability, capillary pseudo-hemorrha...

In this work, the transmission characteristic of a single mode fiber-silica capillary-single fiber (SMF-Capillary-SMF) structure is modified by introducing liquids inside and outside silica capillary. The anti-resonant reflecting guidance mechanism in capillary influenced presence liquids. By immersing section liquid-filled SMF-Capillary-SMF into liquids, both resonant wavelength intensity are ...

Capillary pressure and relative permeability are important parameters in geothermal reservoir engineering. It is essential to represent capillary pressure curves mathematically in an appropriate way. The Brooks-Corey capillary pressure model has been accepted widely, however it has been found that the Brooks-Corey model cannot represent capillary pressure curves of The Geysers rock samples. In ...
