Abstract
Let f be a smooth map between unit spheres of possibly different dimensions. We prove the global existence and convergence of the mean curvature flow of the graph of f under various conditions. A corollary is that any areaβdecreasing map between unit spheres (of possibly different dimensions) is isotopic to a constant map. Β© 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract The equations describing fluid flow and mass transfer around a sphere buried in a packed bed are presented, with due consideration given to the processes of transverse and longitudinal dispersion. Numerical solution of the equations was undertaken to obtain point values of the Sherwood
## Abstract This article focuses on the capillary interactions arising when two spherical particles are connected by a concave liquid bridge. This scenario is found in many situations where particles are partially wetted by a liquid, like liquid films stabilized with nanoparticles. We analyze diffe
