The particle dynamics and shear forces of granular matter in a Couette geometry are determined
experimentally. The normalized tangential velocity V (y) declines strongly with distance …

Neutrophil recruitment to inflammation sites purportedly depends on sequential waves of
chemoattractants. Current models propose that leukotriene B 4 (LTB 4 ), a secondary …

We analyze the main features of granular shear flow through experimental measurements in
a Couette geometry and a comparison to a locally Newtonian, continuum model of granular …

We present an experimental study of velocity statistics for a partial layer of inelastic colliding
beads driven by a vertically oscillating boundary. Over a wide range of parameters (…

Optical tweezers have emerged as a promising technique for manipulating biological objects.
Instead of direct laser exposure, more often than not, optically-trapped beads are attached …

Asteroids and other Small Solar System Bodies (SSSBs) are of high general and scientific
interest in many aspects. The origin, formation, and evolution of our Solar System (and other …

… a change in the channel width W. This indicates that the unusual … the SSH angle scales as
h=W (W being the channel width), … linear relation between the SSH angle and h=W (where W …

We studied the role of the target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) during neutrophil
chemotaxis, a process that is mediated through the polarization of actin and myosin filament …

We review an experimental method that allows to probe the time-dependent structure of
fully three-dimensional densely packed granular materials and suspensions by means of …

The evolution of a dendritic pattern from a planar solid–liquid interface during directional
solidification of a binary alloy was investigated experimentally. The model alloy used was the …
