Abstract:
Abstract The surface tension of xylem sap has been traditionally assumed to be close to that of the pure water because decreasing surface tension is thought to increase vulnerability to air seeding and embolism. However, xylem sap contains insoluble lipid-based surfactants, which also coat vessel and pit membrane surfaces, where gas bubbles can enter xylem under negative pressure in the process known as air seeding. Because of the insolubility of amphiphilic lipids, the surface tension influencing air seeding in pit pores is not the equilibrium surface tension of extracted bulk sap but the loc

Abstract:
The role that bacterial surface hydrophobicity (surface tension) plays in determining the extent of adhesion of polymer substrates and phagocytic ingestion is reviewed. The early attachment phase in bacterial adhesion is shown to depend critically on the relative surface tensions of the three interacting phases; i.e., bacteria, substrate, and suspending liquid surface tension. When suspended in a liquid with a high surface tension such as Hanks balanced salt solution, the most hydrophobic bacteria adhere to all surfaces to the greatest extent. When the liquid surface tension (γLV) is larger th

Abstract:
When fluid droplets coalesce, the flow is initially controlled by a balance between surface tension and viscosity. For low viscosity fluids such as water, the viscous lengthscale is quickly reached, yielding a new balance between surface tension and inertia. Numerical and asymptotic calculations have shown that there is no simply connected solution for the coalescence of inviscid fluid drops surrounded by a void, as large amplitude capillary waves cause the free surface to pinch off. We analyse in detail a linearised version of this free boundary problem. For zero density surrounding fluid, we

Abstract:
In this thesis we present findings from an experimental and numerical study of loosely confined, dry granular gases subject to vertical vibration. We found that the system phase separates into a high-density, liquid-like phase and a low-density gas-like phase. The phase separation was shown to occur at a critical driving amplitude but is independent of frequency. To introduce our work, we give an overview of phase separation in driven granular gases. Ofpatiicular interest are: a solid-liquid-like phase separation in tightly confined, dry granular mono layers and a liquid-gas-like phase separat

Abstract:
The objective of this work is to develop a computational framework for modelling the motion of liquid phase between moving particles associated with the processing of complex multiphase materials. The liquid phase may be present at various levels of saturation and necessarily includes numerous and irregular free surfaces. In this kind of situation the surface tension is dominant and governs the interparticle motion that plays a fundamental role during material processing. This work focuses on surface tension modelling using the finite element method. Two issues related to the modelling of surf

The operation of autonomous, liquid-fueled microboats driven by surface tension effects has been demonstrated, including the possibility of controlled steering. Two types of microboat with surface area of 6 × 11 mm2 have been fabricated by a bulk micromachining process and powered by 0.5μl of isopropanol on top of a pool of water. The first microboat design uses a cellulose film to store liquid-fuel and has been able to operate for 10 minutes with a maximum cruising velocity of 7.5cm/sec.
