(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)In this thesis, the unusual physics of rodlike liquid crystals are explored through simulations of rigid-rod kinetic theory discretized by the finite element method. As their name suggests. these substances retain crystalline. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)This computational and theoretical study investigates the self-assembly of superparamagnetic nanoparticles and block copolymers under external magnetic fields. A variety of morphological transitions are observed based on ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Conventional batch blending of pharmaceutical powders coupled with long quality analysis times increases the production cycle time leading to strained cash flows. Also, scale-up issues faced in process development causes ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Performing multistep microchemical synthesis requires many techniques from combining micromixers in series to the development of continuous microfluidic separation tools. Safety, high heat and mass transfer rates, and cost ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Microfluidic systems provide valuable tools for exploring, studying, and optimizing organic syntheses. The small scales and fast transport rates allow for faster experiments and lower amounts of chemicals to be used, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)The basic equations embodying macroscopic conservation and balance statements applicable to polarizable media are derived phenomenologically. These general balance statements are then applied to the particular case of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Endogenous synthesis of nitric oxide (NO) is essential for many physiological functions, including the immune defense. However, the sustained, high production of NO by immune cells (macrophages) that accompanies chronic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)In this work, we are motivated by the need to produce particles of well-controlled size, shape and morphology for general application in catalysis, environmental remediation, nanomedicine, pharmaceuticals, the development ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)An essential requirement for the fabrication of future electronic, magnetic, optical and biologically-based devices, composed of constituents at the nanometer length scale, is the precise positioning of the components in ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Uncontrolled bleeding and infection are leading causes of patient morbidity and mortality following traumatic injury. Traditional pressure based methods of hemorrhage management are not suitable for incompressible or complex ...
