Nano/Microfluidic technologies are emerging as powerful enabling tools for diagnosis and monitoring of infectious diseases in both developed and developing countries. Miniaturized nano/microfluidic platforms that precisely manipulate small fluid volumes can be used to enable medical diagnosis in a more rapid and accurate manner. In particular, these nano/microfluidic diagnostic technologies are...

in this paper, preparation, bioactivity, and osteoblast cell behavior of cortical bone derived nanobiphasic calcium phosphate (nano-bcp) are presented. the calcined bovine bone samples with the addition of di-ammonium hydrogen phosphate were heated at 700°c for 100 min, and thus nano-bcp with the composition of 63/37 hydroxyapatite (ha)/β-tricalcium phosphate (β-tcp) was produced. scanning elec...

A variety of geomaterials, such as cementitious or clay-based materials, has on the nano-scale a layered microstructure that can contain fluid in its nano-porous space. The creep of such nano-scale basic units is what causes the macroscopic creep. Here, one nano-pore whose walls consist of two parallel infinite solid layers interacting through Lennard-Jones potential is studied. The authors eva...

Quantum dot/liquid crystal nano-composites are promising new materials for a variety of applications in energy harvesting, displays and photonics including the liquid crystal laser. To realize many applications, however, we need to control and stabilize nano-particle dispersion in different liquid crystal host phases and understand how the particles behave in an anisotropic fluid. An ideal syst...

Dynamic analysis of supported pipes conveying pulsating fluid is investigated in Hamiltonian system using precise integration method PIM . First, symplectic canonical equations of supported pipes are deduced with state variable vectors composed of displacement and momentum. Then, PIM with linear interpolation formula is proposed to solve these equations. Finally, this approach’s precision is te...
