Mercury Porosimetry: A General (Practical) Overview

TL;DR: In this article, the surface area, porosity and other physical-structural properties of bituminous coals from three different coal fields of South Africa determined using carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N2) low pressure gas adsorption (LPGA), mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), and advanced Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) analytical techniques.

TL;DR: OpenPNM as discussed by the authors is a framework for modeling and simulation of porous networks using Python using NumPy and SciPy for most mathematical operations, combining Python's ease of use with the performance necessary to perform large simulations.

TL;DR: A framework for understanding aggregate communities as “microbial villages” that are periodically connected through wetting events, allowing for the transfer of genetic material, metabolites, and viruses is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the exact meniscus curvature of perfectly wetting liquids draining from pores of general triangular cross section was derived, where the appropriate normalized shape factor for capillary action in triangular pores is the ratio of the area of cross section, A to the square of the perimeter length, P.

TL;DR: In this article, the porosity of the spherical model and the contact angle of the fluid were derived for describing the penetration of fluids into the void spaces of a collection of uniform solid spheres.

TL;DR: The method finally evolved has not been discovered during an examination of the available literature, and in view of its simplicity seems to merit description.
