By virtue of their lack of motility, viruses rely entirely on their own temperature (Brownian motion) to position themselves properly for cell attachment. Spiked viruses use one or more spikes (called peplomers) to attach. The coronavirus u...
Effect of stomach motility on food hydrolysis and gastric emptying: Insight from computational models [0.03%]
胃动力对食物水解和胃排空的影响:计算模型的见解
Sharun Kuhar,Jae Ho Lee,Jung-Hee Seo et al.
Sharun Kuhar et al.
The peristaltic motion of stomach walls combines with the secretion of digestive enzymes to initiate the process that breaks down food. In this study, the mixing, breakdown, and emptying of a liquid meal containing protein is simulated in a...
Hemodynamic characteristics in a cerebral aneurysm model using non-Newtonian blood analogues [0.03%]

Employing the moving particles' semi-implicit (MPS) method, this study presents a numerical framework for solving the Navier-Stokes equations for the propagation and the split of a liquid plug through a three-dimensional air-filled bifurcat...
Computational modeling of drug dissolution in the human stomach: Effects of posture and gastroparesis on drug bioavailability [0.03%]
人体胃中药物溶解的计算模型:体位和胃麻痹对药物生物利用度的影响

The Food and Drug Administration recommends against washing raw chicken due to the risk of transferring dangerous food-borne pathogens through splashed drops of water. Many cooks continue to wash raw chicken despite this warning, however, a...
Modeling the filtration efficiency of a woven fabric: The role of multiple lengthscales [0.03%]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many millions have worn masks made of woven fabric to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19. Masks are essentially air filters worn on the face that should filter out as many of the dangerous particles as...
Minimizing the COVID-19 spread in hospitals through optimization of ventilation systems [0.03%]
通过优化通风系统减少医院内的COVID-19传播

Hamed Arjmandi et al.
The rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 virus has overwhelmed hospitals with patients in need of intensive care, which is often limited in capacity and is generally reserved for patients with critical conditions. This has led to higher chances of in...
