Variations of intracellular density during the cell cycle arise from tip-growth regulation in fission yeast

Emrah Bostan, Pascal Damian Odermatt

Intracellular density impacts the physical nature of the cytoplasm and can globally affect cellular processes, yet density regulation remains poorly understood. Here, using a new quantitative phase imaging method, we determined that dry-mass density in fis ...

Evaporation from a small water reservoir: Direct measurements and estimates

Marc Parlange, Shirit Cohen

Summary Knowing the rate of evaporation from surface water resources such as chan¬nels and reservoirs is essential for precise management of the water balance. However, evaporation is difﬁcult to measure experimentally over water surfaces and several tech¬ ...

Coupled hydro-mechanical analysis of compacted bentonite behaviour during hydration

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Jose Antonio Bosch Llufriu

This study analyses the response of compacted bentonites upon hydration based on a coupled hydro-mechanical elasto-plastic framework. As an alternative to multi-porosity interpretation, the framework was selected based on the experimental evidence of adsor ...
