Interfacial solid/liquid interactions play a crucial role in wetting, spreading, and adhesion processes. In the case of a flat solid surface, contact angle measurements are commonly utilized for the determination of the solid surface free energy and its components. However, if such a surface cannot

β¦ Synopsis
The evidence presented seems to indicate that, despite the apparent extreme changes in the deformation process due to quenching, there are certain areas that remain unaffe~~d. This leads to the suggestion that the "forest" effect is important in explaining the mechanics1 behavior of aluminum crystals independent of prior thermal history.

A sensitive fluorescence resonance energy transfer method was developed for the direct measurement of the dissociation constants of stromelysin inhibitors. The method is applied to the thiadiazole class of stromelysin inhibitors and it takes advantage of the fact that, upon binding to the active sit
In a recent paper Dr. Schneider from our laboratory published some results of his research on the block-method, also called contact method (SCHNEIDER, 1969). In this letter additional information on this method is presented, so as to draw attention to some limitations in its use as a field instrumen
