A membrane-based serpentine-shape pneumatic micropump with pumping performance modulated by fluidic resistance by Huang, S, Wu, M, Cui, Z, Cui, Z, Lee, G

“…To investigate designs with a suitable pumping performance, S-shape pneumatic micropumps with varied lengths (1000, 5000 and 10 000 νm), varied widths (20, 40 and 200 νm) of the pneumatic microchannel bridging two rectangular pneumatic chambers, and different numbers of pneumatic channel bends (two and four U-shape bends) were designed and evaluated experimentally by using high-speed CCD-coupled microscopic observation of the movement of PDMS membrane pulsation and pumping rate measurements. …”

New Mn(II), Ni(II), Cd(II), Pb(II)complexes with 2-methylbenzimidazole and other ligands. synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, crystal structure, magnetic susceptibility and... by Shaker, S.A., Ali, Hapipah Mohd, Cheah, S.C., Khaledi, H.

“…The X-ray single crystal diffraction method was used to confirm a centrosymmetric dinuclear Cd(II) complex as each two metal ions are linked by a pair of thiocyanate N = S bridge. Two 2-methylbenzimidazole N-atom donors and one terminal thiocyanate N atom complete a highly distorted square pyramid geometry around the Cd atom. …”

Are Force Enhancement after Stretch and Muscle Fatigue Due to Effects of Elevated Inorganic Phosphate and Low Calcium on Cross Bridge Kinetics? by Hans Degens, David A. Jones

“…Materials and Methods: To investigate this, we used (1) 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM), believed to increase the proportion of attached but non-force-generating cross bridges; (2) Pi that increases the proportion of attached cross bridges, but with Pi still attached; and (3) reduced activating Ca²⁺. …”

Nonlinear seismic performance of integral prestressed concrete boxgirder bridge in Malaysia by Meldi, Meldi

“…The numerical approach has four steps as follows: (1) investigating material properties of integral prestressed concrete box-girder bridge; (2) modelling integral prestressed concrete boxgirder bridge by considering the interaction of structure, substructure and site condition; (3) studying the soil and pile interaction by applying bridge finite element modelling. (4) Validating experimental modelling with Finite element Modelling. …”
