The dimensional stability of paper during printing is crucial for ensuring production quality
and runnability. However, inkjet printing faces inherent challenges due to the hygroscopic …

A series of experiments are performed to give insight into the mechanisms of liquid rise in a
3D dense random packing of glass spheres. A sharp knee in the log-log plot of water height …

A novel experimental protocol and analysis technique is developed to determine whether
water rise in a cellulose foam is by capillary flow alone, or is by capillary flow followed by …

充液弹性毛细管广泛存在于生物体(如毛细血管, 植物导管等) 和工程领域(如微流控冰阀门,
制冷系统热管, MEMS 微通道谐振器等). 低温工作环境中, 充液弹性毛细管内部的液柱会发生相 …

Cellulose foams can undergo a large one-way actuation strain when taken from a dry, pre-
compressed state to a damp state by the addition of water. In order to develop a predictive …

We explore predictions of two models of one-dimensional capillary rise in rigid and partially
saturated porous media. One is an existing one from the literature and the second is a free …

The mechanics of liquid transport in porous cellulose foam and in a dense random packing
of glass spheres are studied in this thesis. Specifically, the capillary and diffusion …

In this study, negative head height tests were performed on loess samples from Weibei,
Shaanxi, China, to investigate capillary ascent in unsaturated compacted loess. The results …

The ability of paper towels in rapidly absorbing water is a critical feature, making them
essential for cleaning, personal hygiene, and various household tasks. The porous structure …

Liquid-filled elastic capillaries are a kind of standard component in life body (eg, capillary
blood vessel and plant vessel) and engineering fields (eg, MEMS microchannel resonators …
