Texturization of surfaces is usually advantageous in biomaterial engineering. However, the
details of the textured surfaces can be more determining on cell adhesion and proliferation …

The purpose of this article is to present some important advances in the imaging techniques
currently used in the characterization of bitumen and bituminous emulsions. Bitumen …

Membrane stripping of carbon dioxide from an aqueous 30%(w/w) potassium carbonate
solvent was achieved using two types of polymeric flat sheet microporous membranes; a …

In this study, the surface characteristics of three major materials which are widely used in
food industry, glass, polyethylene (PE) and stainless steel (SS 316), were studied. The …

In this paper, thermal performance of a cylindrical micro-grooved heat pipe is experimentally
and mathematically investigated. The experimental tests are conducted included the …

Surfactant-laden sessile droplet evaporation plays a crucial role in a variety of omnipresent
natural and technological applications, such as drying, coating, spray, and inkjet printing …

Evaporation of a sessile droplet on superhydrophobic surfaces has various applications due
to their utmost water-repellent and self-cleaning wetting properties. We experimentally …

The authors have presented the results of experimental investigations into the physical
mechanisms of change in the dynamic angle of contact of a droplet of distilled water on a …

Thermal-recovery methods (eg, steam injection) are commonly used to recover bitumen from
oil sands. The injected steam contacts the oil sand and forms an interface. The steam …

In this work, we present a methodology for choosing the best experimental conditions for
transferring protein Langmuir films onto solid substrates. As an example of applying the …
