Evaporation effect on two-dimensional wicking in porous media.

TL;DR: The evaporation-capillary number is introduced, a new dimensionless quantity, which governs the frontal motion when multiplied by the scaled time, and is shown to reduce the propagation rate of the wet front relative to the Lucas-Washburn law.

Soft matter physics: Tools and mechanical models for living cellular aggregates

TL;DR: This work focuses here on the mechanical properties (surface tension, elasticity, and viscosity) of cells and tissues derived from measurements performed by the pipette aspiration technique, and reveals striking analogies between the physics of inert soft matter and the behavior of biological tissues.

A macroscopic Washburn approach of liquid imbibition in wood derived from X-ray tomography observations

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the imbibition of water and silicone oil in poplar and spruce at the anatomical level by X-ray tomography observations and at the macroscopic level by imbibitions kinetics.

Transparent and airtight silica nano- and microchannels with uniform tubular cross-section

TL;DR: Experimental results on a template-assisted technique to fabricate uniform nano-and microchannels are presented in this paper, where different template materials, polystyrene and poly(vinyl alcohol) electrospun and spider silk fibres were coated with silica after calcination mechanically stable and transparent channels with uniform tubular diameter were obtained.

Ink-paper interactions and effect on print quality in inkjet printing

Anna Lundberg
TL;DR: In this article, the paper and ink interactions related to inkjet printing were studied and the main purpose of this work was to gain a deeper understanding in which parameters control the flow of ink into papers.
