solved examples on mesh free method
plz provide links for some solved numerical examples for new students in this field of mesh free method
Journal Club Theme of July 2007: Mechanics of Hydrogels
Before we start this issue of J-club, I would like to recommend Prof. Langer's lecture for his MRS Von Hippel Award in the 2005 MRS Fall Meeting (Langer, 2006). His lecture not only delineated the history of the new exciting field of drug delivery and controlled release, but also told us many interesting stories happened in his career development. With Prof. Langer's pioneer work, many new materials are developed for designing new drug delivery and controlled drug release systems.
List of Journals in Microfluidics
I am working in the area of microfuidics and wish to apply meshless methods to solve electroosmotic flow in microchannel. Can anybody suggest the journals which accepts papers on this field.
Key Words: Microfluidics, Navier-Stokes equations, microchannels, electroosmotic flow
Maths in the study of fractured surfaces
Hello,
I'm working now at a study about the possibles applications of mathematics in fracture mechanics.Please give me the suggestions about the possibles Mathematics applied in the Fracture Mechanics:
(- fuzzy;
-hypermathematics
-fractal geometry).
Thank you very much.
Orientation of Core-Shell Nanoparticles in an Electric Field
Coated nanoparticles, which have a core-shell structure, have many applications. The attached manuscript shows some of our progresses in investigating the induced torque and orientation of such nanoparticles in an electric field. We show that the shell of a nanoparticle has an important effect on its orientation, even when the shell is thin and takes only a small portion of the total volume. For instance, a thin layer coating of highly conductive Au can dramatically change the induced torque on a SiO2 or TiO2 nanoparticle.
Mimics 11 released!
June 14, 2007, Materialise released a new and improved version
of its image processing software Mimics. It will again raise the bar in image
processing and editing based on stacked data such as CT and MRI. Continuous
development and support have resulted in the release of Mimics 11.
