DOI: 10.1021/acs.energyfuels.7b00840
Abstract: Deep saline aquifers are considered as perfect storage sites to sequestrate CO2. Interfacial tensions (IFTs) and contact angles (CAs) are key parameters in the heat and mass transfer processes for CO2/brine/mineral systems in porous media.… read more here.

Abstract: Vimentin intermediate filaments, together with actin filaments and microtubules, constitute the cytoskeleton in cells of mesenchymal origin. The mechanical properties of the filaments themselves are encoded in their molecular architecture and depend on their ionic… read more here.
