Simulations of rigid particles suspended in two-phase shear flow are presented, where one of the suspending fluids is viscoelastic, whereas the other is Newtonian. The Cahn–Hilliard diffuse-interface model is employed for the fluid–fluid interface, which can naturally describe the interactions between the particle and the interface (e.g., particle adsorption). It is shown that particles can migrate across streamlines of the base flow, which is due to the surface tension of the fluid–fluid interface and a difference in normal stresses between the two fluids. The particle is initially located in the viscoelastic fluid, and its migration is investigated in terms of the Weissenberg number Wi (shear rate times relaxation time) and capillary number Ca (viscous stress over capillary stress). Four regimes of particle migration are observed, which can roughly be described by migration away from the interface for Wi = 0, halted migration toward the interface for low Wi and low Ca, particle adsorption at the interfa...

We recently generalized the formerly alignment-dependent multivariate image analysis applied to quantitative structure–activity relationships (MIA-QSAR) method through the application of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), allowing for its application to noncongruent and structurally dive ... more
Proteomic Analysis of the Downstream Signaling Network of PARP1
Poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) is a protein posttranslational modification (PTM) that is critically involved in many biological processes that are linked to cell stress responses. It is catalyzed by a class of enzymes known as poly-ADP-ribose polymerases (PARPs). In particular, PARP1 is ... more
Oxygen Activation and Energy Conservation by Cytochrome c Oxidase
This review focuses on the type A cytochrome c oxidases (CcO), which are found in all mitochondria and also in several aerobic bacteria. CcO catalyzes the respiratory reduction of dioxygen (O2) to water by an intriguing mechanism, the details of which are fairly well understood today as a r ... more
