2D glasses

From the previous discussions, the residual oil was pulled and stripped from the rock surfaces. As shown in a 2D glass-etched model (see Figure 6.24), the residual oil after waterflood became isolated oil droplets. The polymer solution pulled the oil into oil columns. These oil columns became thinner and longer to form oil threads as they met the residual oil downstream. The oil upstream flowed along these oil threads to meet the residual oil downstream so that an oil bank was built. In the process of residual oil flowing along the oil threads, because of the cohesive force of the oil/water interfaces, it was also possible to form new oil droplets, which flowed downstream and coalesced with other oils. Now we are ready to discuss the role viscoelasticity plays.

Similar to the situation with 2D membranes, the basic molecular characteristics of chitosan such as DD also show great influence on the ability of chitosan scaffolds to modulate stem cell behavior. The chitosan scaffolds with a high DD can maintain the viability and pluripotency of buffalo embryonic stem-like (ES-Uke) cells [15]. However, the cell behavior on 2D and 3D environments are quite different. Comparison of MSC behavior in both 2D plates and chitosan/gelatin/chondroitin scaffolds demonstrates that the 3D microenviromnent can enhance osteogenesis and maintain the viability of cells [161]. The research by Altman et al. [162] found that the apparent elastic modulus and cytoskeleton F-actin fiber density were higher for ADSCs seeded in 3D sflk fibroin/chitosan scaffolds than on 2D glass plates (Fig. 13).

In the ASTER reactor deposition experiments were performed in order to compare with the 2D model results. Normalized deposition rates are plotted in Figure 22 as a function of radial position for data taken at 25 and 18 Pa. The deposition takes place on a square glass plate. For each pressure two profile measurements were performed, each profile perpendicular to the other (a and b in Fig. 22). A clear discrepancy is present. The use of the simplified deposition model is an explanation for this. Another recent 2D fluid model also shows discrepancies between the measured and calculated deposition rate [257], which are attributed to the relative simplicity of the deposition model.

In their proposed method, contamination only from the ammoniacal glutathione solution is expected. However, any inorganic mercury in this solution will be adsorbed on the glass container walls with a half-life about 2d, i.e. the blank value becomes zero if the solution is left to stand for more than a week. This method for mercury in sediments does not distinguish between the different forms of organomercury. Results are calculated as methylmercury.
