Effects of Particle Surface Properties on Feeding Selectivity in Suspension-Feeding Bivalve Molluscs
… by which bivalve molluscs differentiate particles are not clearly understood, and the surface properties of a particle have been proposed as factors that contribute to particle selection. The effects of surface properties upon selection by suspension-feeding bivalves were examined. The …

Electrostatic, electrokinetic, and ordering properties of concentrated suspensions of polystyrene latex
The electrokinetic properties of polystyrene latexes are investigated and data reduction indicates that surface charge regulation occurs through the adsorption of ions from the suspending medium. An independent non-electrokinetic method of determining ionic adsorption is developed confirming these …

Turbulence-particle interactions on surfaces
The physics of adhesion and detachment of particles in ventilation ducts is important to understand and control contaminant and pathogen dispersal indoors. This thesis presents an experimental characterization of parameters which affect the resuspension of settled micro-particles and spores in a …
