Journal ArticleDOI
Pattern selection in fingered growth phenomena
TL;DR: In this article, the authors survey recent theoretical work which elucidates how such systems arrive at their observed patterns, focusing on dendritic solidification, simple local models thereof, and the Saffman-Taylor finger in 2D fluid flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phase-field model of mode III dynamic fracture
TL;DR: A phenomenological continuum model for the mode III dynamic fracture that is based on the phase-field methodology used extensively to model interfacial pattern formation is introduced and two-dimensional simulations that yield steady-state crack motion in a strip geometry above the Griffith threshold are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental study on the effect of ultrasonication on viscosity and heat transfer performance of multi-wall carbon nanotube-based aqueous nanofluids

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of dispersing energy (ultrasonication) on viscosity, thermal conductivity, and the laminar convective heat transfer was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of strain on surface morphology in highly strained InGaAs films.
TL;DR: A growth mode is proposed whereby strain relaxation is initially achieved through the kinetically limited evolution of surface morphology, in contrast to traditional critical-thickness theories, where significant strain relief is accommodated by a coherent island morphology.
Journal ArticleDOI
FDA Regulation of Stem-Cell–Based Therapies
TL;DR: The authors review existing regulations regarding cell and tissue products and discuss how they expect the Food and Drug Administration to apply these regulations to scientists' efforts to develop and test stem-cell–based therapies.
