description: The spatial and temporal control of gene expression is key to generation of specific cellular fates during development. Studies of the transcriptional repressor REST/NRSF (RE1 Silencing Transcription Factor or Neural Restrictive Silencing Factor) have provided important insight into the role that epigenetic modifications play in differential gene expression. However, the precise function of REST during embryonic development is not well understood. We have discovered a novel interaction between zebrafish Rest and the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway. We observed that Rest knockdown enhances or represses Hh signaling in a context-dependant manner. In wild-type embryos and embryos with elevated Hh signaling, Rest knockdown augments transcription of Hh target genes. Conversely, in contexts where Hh signaling is diminished, Rest knockdown has the opposite effect and Hh target gene expression is further attenuated. Epistatic analysis revealed that Rest interacts with the Hh pathway at a step downstream of Smo. Furthermore, we present evidence implicating the bifunctional, Hh signaling component Gli2a as key to the Rest modulation of the Hh response. The role of Rest as a regulator of Hh signaling has broad implications for many developmental contexts where REST and Hh signaling act.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.We used the 12-year (1985–1996) Pathfinder SST dataset for the first comprehensive survey of the Baltic Sea thermal fronts. The Cayula-Cornillon front detection and cloud-masking algorithms were applied to 8364 twice-daily 9-km resolution AVHRR images. Long-term frontal frequencies normalized by cloudiness were computed for each 9-km pixel. The following persistent fronts were distinguished: Bothnian Bay Front (BBF), Bothnian Sea Front (BSF), North Baltic Proper Front (NBPF), South Baltic Proper Front (SBPF), Gotland Front (GF), Irbe Strait Front (ISF), and Arkona Front (AF). Most fronts appear topographically controlled: BBF and BSF encircle the respective depressions, while NBPF, SBPF, and GF extend along the 100-m isobath that outlines the Baltic Proper basin. The ISF is situated over the outer edge of the sill that separates the Gulf of Riga from the Baltic Proper. Some fronts are distinct year round (BSF, NBPF, and likely SBPF). Other fronts only exist seasonally. The entire frontal pattern is reproducible from one year to another.

description: We present sub-arcsecond resolution ground-based near-infrared images of the central regions of a sample of twelve barred galaxies with circumnuclear star formation activity, which is organized in ring-like regions typically one kiloparsec in diameter. We also present Hubble Space Telescope near-infrared images of ten of our sample galaxies, and compare them with our ground-based data. Although our sample galaxies were selected for the presence of circumnuclear star formation activity, our broad-band near-infrared images are heterogeneous, showing a substantial amount of small-scale structure in some galaxies, and practically none in others. We argue that, where it exists, this structure is caused by young stars, which also cause the characteristic bumps or changes in slope in the radial profiles of ellipticity, major axis position angle, surface brightness and colour at the radius of the circumnuclear ring in most of our sample galaxies. In 7 out of 10 HST images, star formation in the nuclear ring is clearly visible as a large number of small emitting regions, organised into spiral arm fragments, which are accompanied by dust lanes. NIR colour index maps show much more clearly the location of dust lanes and, in certain cases, regions of star formation than single broad-band images. Circumnuclear spiral structure thus outlined appears to be common in barred spiral galaxies with circumnuclear star formation.

Energy harvesting with stacked dielectric elastomer transducers: Nonlinear theory, optimization, and linearized scaling law

Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Mechanical Engineering
subject: FOS: Mechanical engineering

description: Using principles of damped harmonic oscillation with continuous media, we examineelectrostatic energy harvesting with a “soft-matter” array of dielectric elastomer (DE) transducers.The array is composed of infinitely thin and deformable electrodes separated by layers of insulating elastomer. During vibration, it deforms longitudinally, resulting in a change in the capacitance and electrical enthalpy of the charged electrodes. Depending on the phase ofelectrostatic loading, the DE array can function as either an actuator that amplifies small vibrations or a generator that converts these external excitations into electrical power. Both cases are addressed with a comprehensive theory that accounts for the influence of viscoelasticity, dielectric breakdown, and electromechanical coupling induced by Maxwellstress. In the case of a linearized Kelvin-Voigt model of the dielectric, we obtain a closed-form estimate for the electrical power output and a scaling law for DE generator design. For the complete nonlinear model, we obtain the optimal electrostatic voltage input for maximum electrical power output.
Tribonacci numbers and primes of the form $p=x^2+11y^2$

description: In this paper we show that for any prime number $p$ not equal to $11$ or $19$, the Tribonacci number $T_{p-1}$ is divisible by $p$ if and only if $p$ is of the form $x^2+11y^2$. We first use class field theory on the Galois closure of the number field corresponding to the polynomial $x^3-x^2-x-1$ to give the splitting behavior of primes in this number field. After that, we apply these results to the explicit exponential formula for $T_{p-1}$. We also give a connection between the Tribonacci numbers and the Fourier coefficients of the unique newform of weight $2$ and level $11$.

description: In this paper we employ a gaussian expansion within the finite-$U$ slave-bosons formalism to investigate the momentum structure of the electron-phonon vertex function in the Hubbard model as function of $U$ and $n$. The suppression of large momentum scattering and the onset a small-${\bf q}$ peak structure, parametrized by a cut-off $q_c$, are shown to be essentially ruled by the band narrowing factor $Z_{\rm MF}$ due to the electronic correlation. A phase diagram of $Z_{\rm MF}$ and $q_c$ in the whole $U$-$n$ space is presented. Our results are in more than qualitative agreement with a recent numerical analysis and permit to understand some anomalous features of the Quantum Monte Carlo data.

description: We consider a system of partial differential equations describing mass transport in a multicomponent isothermal compressible fluid. The diffusion fluxes obey the Fick-Onsager or Maxwell- Stefan closure approach. Mechanical forces result into one single convective mixture velocity, the barycentric one, which obeys the Navier-Stokes equations. The thermodynamic pressure is defined by the Gibbs-Duhem equation. Chemical potentials and pressure are derived from a thermodynamic potential, the Helmholtz free energy, with a bulk density allowed to be a general convex function of the mass densities of the constituents. The resulting PDEs are of mixed parabolic?hyperbolic type. We prove two theoretical results concerning the well-posedness of the model in classes of strong solutions: 1. The solution always exists and is unique for short?times and 2. If the initial data are sufficiently near to an equilibrium solution, the well-posedness is valid on arbitrary large, but finite time intervals. Both results rely on a contraction principle valid for systems of mixed type that behave like the compressible Navier- Stokes equations. The linearised parabolic part of the operator possesses the self map property with respect to some closed ball in the state space, while being contractive in a lower order norm only. In this paper, we implement these ideas by means of precise a priori estimates in spaces of exact regularity.

description: Diffusion-coagulation can be simply described by a dynamic where particles perform a random walk on a lattice and coalesce with probability unity when meeting on the same site. Such processes display non-equilibrium properties with strong fluctuations in low dimensions. In this work we study this problem on the fully-connected lattice, an infinite-dimensional system in the thermodynamic limit, for which mean-field behaviour is expected. Exact expressions for the particle density distribution at a given time and survival time distribution for a given number of particles are obtained. In particular we show that the time needed to reach a finite number of surviving particles (vanishing density in the scaling limit) displays strong fluctuations and extreme value statistics, characterized by a universal class of non-Gaussian distributions with singular behaviour.

Energetics and kinetics of the c(2 × 2) to (2√2 × √2)R45◦ transition during the early stages of Cu(100) oxidation

description: The energetics and kinetics of the c(2 × 2) to (2√2 × √2)R45◦ missing-row reconstruction transition on the Cu(100) surface are investigated using density functional theory calculations. First, oxygen-molecule-induced surface restructuring on the unreconstructed Cu(100) surface is compared to that on the missing-row reconstructed surface. We find that the surface-oxide energy decrease on the missing-row reconstruction (−0.149 eV/A˚ 2) is larger than that on the unreconstructed surface (−0.080 eV/A˚ 2). Cu2O-like structures, which are found on the reconstructed surface, are not found on the unreconstructed surface. These results indicate that the missing-row reconstruction is necessary for the formation of Cu2O on the Cu(100) surface. Then, we investigate copper ejection from the c(2 × 2) phase using the nudged elastic band method. A series of ejections onto the nearest-neighbor copper atom is found to be the most probable mechanism for the formation of the missing row. The barriers for the subsequent copper diffusion events are comparable to those on the perfect c(2 × 2) phase and the clean copper surface, suggesting that the c(2 × 2) phase acts as a copper diffusion channel during surface oxidation.

description: A fully gauge-invariant (pseudoscalar) meson photoproduction amplitude off a nucleon including the final-state interaction is derived. The approach based on a comprehensive field-theoretical formalism developed earlier by one of the authors replaces certain dynamical features of the full interaction current by phenomenological auxiliary contact currents. A procedure is outlined that allows for a systematic improvement of this approximation. The feasibility of the approach is illustrated by applying it to both the neutral and charged pion photoproductions.

Emulating prosthetic feet during the prescription process to improve outcomes and justifications

description: The current process of prescribing prosthetic feet is hampered by imprecise classifications based on self-assessment, recommendations based on subjective prediction, burdensome justification requirements, and slow, costly testing of devices. These problems have been exacerbated by the introduction of robotic prostheses, which can improve gait performance for some individuals, but are very expensive. We propose an alternative process, in which a versatile robotic emulator is used to preview patient interactions with a range of prostheses, while objective data related to effort, stability, speed and preference are collected, all prior to prescription. Results from pilot testing with a prototype emulator system demonstrate accurate haptic rendering of a wide range of prosthesis classes and differentiation of user performance across these classes. Eventually, emulation-based prescription could reduce bias, cost and waste in the prescription process, while simultaneously improving patient outcomes.

description: A Born-Infeld theory describing a D2-brane coupled to a 4-form RR field strength is considered, and the general solutions of the static and Euclidean time equations are derived and discussed. The period of the bounce solutions is shown to allow a consideration of tunneling and quantum-classical transitions in the sphaleron region. The order of such transitions, depending on the strength of the RR field strength, is determined. A criterion is then derived to confirm these findings.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der bordseitigen, internen Quantisierung der Daten von Radarinstrumenten mit synthetischer Apertur (SAR). Das bordseitig benötigte Datenvolumen von gegenwärtig geplanten und zukünftigen satellitengestützten SAR-Missionen nimmt immer mehr zu, da in modernen Systemen größere Bandbreiten und Mehrkanalverfahren zum Einsatz kommen, und außerdem die Abbildung größerer Streifenbreiten bei feinerer räumlicher Auflösung angestrebt wird. Dies impliziert höhere Anforderungen an Bordspeicher und Übertragungskapazitäten, deren begrenzte Ressourcen oft einen Engpass bei der Planung von SAR-Missionen darstellen. In diesem Zusammenhang ist eine geeignete Digitalisierung der vom SAR-Sensor erfassten Rohdaten von großer Bedeutung: die zur Speicherung der einzelnen Samples verwendete Anzahl von Bits beeinflusst zum einen die Qualität der resultierenden SAR-Produkte, definiert aber andererseits auch die Menge des gesamten Datenvolumens, das vom System erzeugt wird. In dieser Dissertation wurde der Einfluss der Quantisierung auf die SAR Leistung und die interferometrische (InSAR) Qualität untersucht. Dafür wurden experimentelle Daten der TanDEM-X Mission genutzt. Darüber hinaus wurde eine neuartige Quantisierungsmethode vorgestellt, die „qualitätsoptimierte blockadaptive Quantisierung“, die eine gemeinsame Optimierung der Datenrate und gleichzeitig der interferometrischen Qualität ermöglicht. Ferner wurde eine neuartige SAR-Datenkompressionstechnik entwickelt, die sogenannte „Azimuth-Switched Quantization“ (ASQ), die eine effiziente Umsetzung von nicht-ganzzahligen Quantisierungsraten, und dadurch eine höhere Flexibilität in Bezug auf erzielbare Leistung und Ressourcenallokation ermöglicht. Der zweite Teil der Dissertation konzentriert sich auf die Entwicklung von innovativen bordseitigen Datenreduktionsverfahren für zukünftige SAR-Systeme, mit Schwerpunkt auf mehrkanaligem SAR und staggered (gestaffeltem) SAR. Die erhebliche Überabtastung und Korrelationseigenschaften des Azimut-SAR-Rohdatenstroms wurden durch eine effiziente Kodierung und Quantisierung der SAR-Rohdaten genutzt, was eine deutliche Reduzierung des zu übertragenden Datenvolumens zum Boden auf Kosten einer geringfügigen Erhöhung des bordseitig benötigten Rechenkapazität ermöglicht.

Only when the deformed length is long enough, an effectual metal-semiconductor-metal heterojunction can be formed in the metallic tube. The effect of finite deformed length is explained by the quantum tunnelling effect. Furthermore, some conceptual designs of nanoscale devices are proposed from the metal-semiconductor-metal heterojunction.

description: The Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) approach describing the motion of independent particles in effective meson fields is extended by a microscopic theory of particle vibrational coupling. It leads to an energy dependence of the relativistic mass operator in the Dyson equation for the single-particle propagator. This equation is solved in the shell-model of Dirac states. As a result of the dynamics of particle-vibrational coupling we observe a noticeable increase of the level density near the Fermi surface. The shifts of the single-particle levels in the odd nuclei surrounding 208-Pb and the corresponding distributions of the single-particle strength are discussed and compared with experimental data.

description: We describe a near-IR photometric search for cool red dwarf companions to hot EUV-detected white dwarfs (WDs). While some composite systems have been found optically among WDs detected in recent EUV All-Sky Surveys, we develop an IR technique that probes farther down the main sequence, detecting yet more companions. We use detailed DA model atmosphere fits to optical spectra to predict K magnitudes and distances, against which we contrast our near-IR observations. Our photometric survey reveals 10 DAs with a significant excess in both J and K. Half are newly discovered, and are most likely previously unrecognized binary systems. Neither the frequency of infrared excess nor the mass estimate of the red dwarf companion correlate with white dwarf mass, as might be expected if either the EUV detectability or mass of the white dwarfs were significantly affected by a companion. Infrared spectra of these systems should help to determine the mass and spectral type of the cool companions presumably causing the IR excess, leading to better estimates of the mass ratio distribution in binaries. Counting previously known binaries, and resolved pairs, we find the total binary fraction of the sample is at least a third. Since most WD progenitors had initial masses larger than about 2 solar masses, we thus provide a photometric measure of the binary fraction of high mass stars that would be difficult to perform in high mass main sequence stars. We estimate that 90% of the companions are of type K or later.

description: Results of timing measurements of the pulsar PSR B0329+54 obtained in 1968--2012 using the Big Scanning Antenna of the Pushchino Radio Astronomy Observatory (at 102 and 111 MHz), the DSS 13 and DSS 14 telescopes of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (2388 MHz), and the 64 m telescope of the Kalyazin Radio Astronomy Observatory (610 MHz) are presented. The astrometric and rotational parameters of the pulsar are derived at a new epoch. Periodic variations in the barycentric timing residuals have been found, which can be explained by the presence of a planet orbiting the pulsar, with an orbital period $P_{1}$ = 27.8 yr, mass \textit{$m_{c}$}sin\textit{i} = 2$M_{\oplus}$, and orbital semi-major axis $a$ = 10.26 AU. The results of this study do not confirm existence of a proposed second planet with orbital period $P_{2}$ = 3 yr.

description: It has been conjectured that at the stationary point of the tachyon potential for the non-BPS D-brane or brane-anti-D-brane pair, the negative energy density cancels the brane tension. We study this conjecture using a cubic superstring field theory with insertion of a double-step inverse picture changing operator. We compute the tachyon potential at levels (1/2,1) and (2,6). In the first case we obtain that the value of the potential at the minimum is 97.5% of the non BPS D-brane tension. Using a special gauge in the second case we get 105.8% of the tension.

description: In complex systems with stochastic components, systems laws often emerge that describe higher level behavior regardless of lower level component configurations. In this paper, emergent laws for describing mechanochemical systems are investigated for processive myosin-actin motility systems. On the basis of prior experimental evidence that longer processive lifetimes are enabled by larger myosin ensembles, it is hypothesized that emergent scaling laws could coincide with myosin-actin contact probability or system energy consumption. Because processivity is difficult to predict analytically and measure experimentally, agent-based computational techniques are developed to simulate processive myosin ensembles and produce novel processive lifetime measurements. It is demonstrated that only systems energy relationships hold regardless of isoform configurations or ensemble size, and a unified expression for predicting processive lifetime is revealed. The finding of such laws provides insight for how patterns emerge in stochastic mechanochemical systems, while also informing understanding and engineering of complex biological systems.

description: Quantum observables can be identified with vector fields on the sphere of normalized states. The resulting vector representation is used in the paper to undertake a simultaneous treatment of macroscopic and microscopic bodies in quantum mechanics. Components of the velocity and acceleration of state under Schrödinger evolution are given for a clear physical interpretation. Solutions to Schrödinger and Newton equations are shown to be related beyond the Ehrenfest results on the motion of averages. A formula relating the normal probability distribution and the Born rule is found.

Gli1 is required for the differentiation of selected endocrine cell types and acts as the major activator of Hh-mediated pituitary induction, while Gli2a and Gli2b contribute more minor activator functions. Intriguingly, this Gli response code changes as development proceeds. Gli1 continues to be required for the activation of the Hh response anteriorly in the pars distalis. In contrast, Gli2b is required to repress Hh target gene expression posteriorly in the pars intermedia. Consistent with these changing roles, gli1, gli2a, and gli2b, but not gli3, are expressed in pituitary precursor cells at the anterior neural ridge. Later in development, gli1 expression is maintained throughout the adenohypophysis while gli2a and gli2b expression are restricted to the pars intermedia. Given the link between Hh signaling and pituitary adenomas in humans, our data suggest misregulation of Gli function may contribute to these common pituitary tumors.

description: Across two studies with over 1,600 U.S. adults recruited online, we present evidence that people share false claims about COVID-19 partly because they simply fail to think sufficiently about whether or not content is accurate when deciding what to share. In Study 1, participants were far worse at discerning between true and false content when deciding what they would share on social media relative to when they are asked directly about accuracy. Furthermore, cognitive reflection and science knowledge were associated with stronger discernment. In Study 2, we found that a simple accuracy reminder at the beginning of the study – i.e., judging the accuracy of a non-COVID-19-related headline – more than doubled the level of truth discernment in participants’ sharing intentions. Our results, which mirror those found previously for political fake news, suggest that nudging people to think about accuracy is a simple way to improve choices about what to share on social media.

description: We determine nuclear structure functions and quark distributions for $^7$Li, $^{11}$B, $^{15}$N and $^{27}$Al. For the nucleon bound state we solve the covariant quark-diquark equations in a confining Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model, which yields excellent results for the free nucleon structure functions. The nucleus is described using a relativistic shell model, including mean scalar and vector fields that couple to the quarks in the nucleon. The nuclear structure functions are then obtained as a convolution of the structure function of the bound nucleon with the light-cone nucleon distributions. We find that we are readily able to reproduce the EMC effect in finite nuclei and confirm earlier nuclear matter studies that found a large polarized EMC effect.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Variation in life history traits of organisms is thought to reflect adaptations to environmental forcing occurring from bottom-up and top-down processes. Such variation occurs not only among, but also within species, indicating demographic plasticity in response to environmental conditions. Between North Atlantic and North Pacific Ocean basins, intraspecific variation in life history traits has been observed among trophic levels from zooplankton to sharks, seabirds, and sea turtles. In all cases examined, species in the Eastern Pacific exhibited later maturation and lower fecundity, but greater annual survival, than conspecifics in the Atlantic. We hypothesize that this dichotomy results from frequency and amplitude shifts in resource availability over varying temporal and spatial scales. Captive studies of fishes have shown that differences in growth and age of reproduction can indeed be a function of environmental control rather than genetic variation. Similar parallel occurrences also have been observed in adjacent seas and between eastern vs. western ocean boundaries. For example, zooplankton and seabird species in cooler North Sea waters exhibit lower fecundity and greater annual survival than conspecifics in the northeast Atlantic and leatherback sea turtles exhibit a larger size and greater reproduction frequency in the Western Pacific vs. Easter Pacific. These examples show system-wide adaptations in life history strategies resulting from environmental 2 forcing and provide a framework for comparisons of ecosystem function among oceanic regions (or regimes) and may prove valuable in modeling ecosystem response to environmental change.

description: The electrocaloric effect in thin films of a poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene chlorofluoroethylene) terpolymer (62.6/29.4/8 mol. %, 11–12 μm thick) is directly measured by infrared imaging at ambient conditions. The adiabatic temperature change is estimated to be 5.2 K for an applied electric field of 90 V/μm. The temperature change is independent of the operating frequency in the range of 0.03–0.3 Hz and is stable over a testing period of 30 min. Application of this terpolymer is promising for micro-scale refrigeration
Testing Intermittency of the Galactic Star Formation History along with the Infall Model

description: We analyze the star formation history (SFH) of the Galactic disk by using an infall model. Based on the observed SFH of the Galactic disk, we first determine the timescales of the gas infall into the Galactic disk ($t_{\rm in}$) and that of the gas consumption to form stars ($t_{\rm sf}$). Since each of the two timescales does not prove to be determined independently from the SFH, we first fix $t_{\rm sf}$. Then, $t_{\rm in}$ is determined so that we minimize $χ^2$. Consequently, we choose three parameter sets: ($t_{\rm sf}$ [Gyr], $t_{\rm in}$ [Gyr]) = (6.0, 23), (11, 12), and (15, 9.0), where we set the Galactic age as 15 Gyr. All of the three cases predict almost identical star formation history. Next, we test the intermittency (or variability) of the star formation rate (SFR) along with the smooth SFH suggested from the infall model. The large value of the $χ^2$ statistic supports the violent time-variation of the SFH. If we interpret the observed SFH with smooth and variable components, the amplitude of the variable component is comparable to the smooth component. Thus, intermittent SFH of the Galactic disk is strongly suggested. We also examined the metallicity distribution of G-dwarfs. We found that the true parameter set lies between ($t_{\rm sf}$ [Gyr], $t_{\rm in}$ [Gyr]) = (6, 23) and (11, 12), though we should need a more sophisticated model including the process of metal enrichment within the Galactic halo.

Open string derivation of winding states in thermal noncommutative field theories

description: The `winding state' behavior appears in the two-loop nonplanar contribution to the partition function in thermal noncommutative field theories. We derive this feature directly from the purely open string theory analysis in the presence of the constant background $B$-field; we compute the two-loop partition function for worldsheets with a handle and a boundary when the time direction of the Euclideanized target space is compactified. In contrast to the closed-string-inspired approach, it is not necessary to add infinite number of extra degrees of freedom. Furthermore, we find a piece of supporting evidence toward the conjecture that, in the UV limit, the noncommutativity parameter plays the role of the effective string scale in noncommutative field theories.

description: We present modeling and analysis of the ejecta of nova V723 Cas based on spatially resolved IR spectroscopic data from Keck-OSIRIS, with LGSAO (adaptive optics module). The 3D photoionization models include the shell geometry taken from the observations and an anisotropic radiation field, composed by a spherical central source and an accretion disk. Our simulations indicate revised abundances $log(N_{Al}/N_{H})=-5.4$, $log(N_{Ca}/N_{H})=-6.4$ and $log(N_{Si}/N_{H})=-4.7$ in the shell. The total ejected mass was found as $M_{shell}=1.1\times 10^{-5}$ $M_{\odot}$ and the central source temperature and luminosity are $T=280,000$ $K$ and $L=10^{38}$ $erg/s$. The 3D models are compared to basic 1D simulations to demonstrate the importance of using more realistic treatments, stressing the differences in the shell mass, abundances and characterization of the central source. The possibility of V723 Cas being a neon nova and the puzzling central source features found are discussed.
Entropy production in nonequilibrium thermodynamics: a review

description: Entropy might be a not well defined concept if the system can undergo transformations involving stationary nonequilibria. It might be analogous to the heat content (once called ``caloric'') in transformations that are not isochoric (i.e. which involve mechanical work): it could be just a quantity that can be transferred or created, like heat in equilibrium. The text first reviews the philosophy behind a recently proposed definition of entropy production in nonequilibrium stationary systems. A detailed technical attempt at defining the entropy of a stationary states via their variational properties follows: the unsatisfactory aspects of the results add arguments in favor of the nonexistence of a function of state to be identified with entropy; at the same time new aspects and properties of the phase space contraction emerge.

Effect of surface roughness on laminar liquid flow in micro-channels
Creators: name: Guobing  Zhao

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Mechanical Engineering
subject: FOS: Mechanical engineering

description: There are three prominent theories with regard to the effects of surface roughness on the pressure drop of laminar liquid flow in micro-channels, the original constricted flow model, the constricted model containing roughness distribution and the roughness–viscosity model. However, they have only been validated with very limited data by the authors. To provide a more reliable guide for various micro-channel applications, a review of these theories was conducted based upon the broad experimental data in literature. It is found that all the normalized data of fRe can be predicted by the original constricted flow model within an error of about ±15%. It is possible that the constricted model containing roughness distribution and the roughness–viscosity model can be further improved for easier use. However, the data, which support these two theories, can also be predicted well by the original constricted flow model with similar accuracy. Furthermore, the dependence of the critical Reynolds number (transition to turbulent flow) on the relative roughness of micro-channels was examined based upon the broad and much scattered experimental data. It is interesting to find that the effects of large discrete roughness on the side walls of shallow micro-channels follow the roughness correlation of macro-channels. The critical Reynolds numbers for different kinds of rough micro-channels were correlated respectively.
