Fiber Buckling in Confined Viscous Flows: An Absolute Instability Described by the Linear Ginzburg-Landau Equation

We explore the dynamics of a flexible fiber transported by a viscous flow in a Hele-Shaw cell of height comparable to the fiber height. We show that long fibers aligned with the flow experience a buckling instability. Competition between viscous and elasti ...

Quantified Effects of Multiple Parameters on Inputs and Potential Sources of Microplastics from a Typical River Flowing into the Sea

Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Wenxin Liu, Yang Liu

As an important connection of terrestrial and marine ecosystems, rivers input multitudinous (micro)plastics into the oceans. However, comparisons of field and estimated riverine inputs of (micro)plastics and contributions of multiple parameters are limited ...

Silk granular hydrogels self-reinforced with regenerated silk fibroin fibers

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Céline Samira Wyss, Peyman Karami, Adrien Julien Demongeot

Granular hydrogels with high stability, strength, and toughness are laborious to develop. Post-curing is often employed to bind microgels chemically and enhance mechanical properties. Here a unique strategy was investigated to maintain microgels together w ...

Homoeolog Inference Methods Requiring Bidirectional Best Hits or Synteny Miss Many Pairs

Shaoline Sheppard

Homoeologs are pairs of genes or chromosomes in the same species that originated by speciation and were brought back together in the same genome by allopolyploidization. Bioinformatic methods for accurate homoeology inference are crucial for studying the e ...
