The results demonstrate that total interfacial areas for natural media are typically much larger than those for ideal media comprising smooth surfaces due to the substantial contribution of surface roughness to wetting-film interfacial area. The degree to which fluid-fluid interfacial area is influenced by roughness is a function of…[Read more]

The hazard quotient (HQ) simulations showed that children are a sensitive group, regarding exposure to nitrates in drinking water over a long period of time, so there is a need for further monitoring and analysis of this issue.Periprosthetic joint infections of the shoulder (PJIS) are the major cause for revision within the first two…[Read more]
