Article Synopsis
- Boiling heat transfer is crucial in many industrial applications, but it presents challenges due to its chaotic nature, particularly in the early stages of bubble formation known as nucleation.
- Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation has proven to be an effective tool for studying these boiling mechanisms at micro and nanoscale, although there are still uncertainties in understanding complex boiling processes.
- This review synthesizes findings from 129 papers up to 2024, discusses fundamental MD concepts, identifies key factors affecting bubble nucleation, explores techniques to enhance boiling heat transfer, and highlights future challenges for MD simulations in this field.

Objective: To investigate the effect of laparoscopic and open proctectomy on plasma levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).
Methods: From January 2011 to December 2012, 100 rectal cancer patients in Shantou Central Hospital were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into laparoscopic (LR) group and open (OR) group based on the decision of the patients.
By dynamic method under UV irradiation, commercial melt-blown polypropylene (PPMB) filter element was modified with acrylamide (AAm) using benzophenone (BP) as initiator. Attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscope verified that polyacrylamide chain was grafted on the fiber surface of PPMB filter element. Elemental content analysis with energy dispersive X-ray of fibers revealed that the polymerization content in the inner part of filter element was relatively higher than that in the outer.
