The geometry of webs has been investigated over more than a century driven by still open problems. In our paper we contribute to extending the knowledge on webs from the perspective of the geometry of webs on surfaces in three dimensional space. Our study of AGAG-webs is motivated by architectural applications of gridshell structures where four families of manufactured curves on a curved surface are realizations of asymptotic lines and geodesic lines. We describe all discrete AGAG-webs in isotropic space and propose a method to construct them. Furthermore, we prove that some sub-nets of an AGAG-web are timelike minimal surfaces in Minkowski space and can be embedded into a one-parameter family of discrete isotropic Voss nets.

Modeling microplastic transport through porous media: Challenges arising from dynamic transport behavior.

Modelling microplastic transport through porous media, such as soils and aquifers, is an emerging research topic, where existing hydrogeological models for (reactive) solute and colloid transport have shown limited effectiveness thus far. This perspective article draws upon recent literature to provide a brief overview of key microplastic transport processes, with emphases on less well-understood processes, to propose potential research directions for efficiently modeling microplastic transport through the porous environment. Microplastics are particulate matter with distinct physicochemical properties.

Organisms capture energy to support growth, survival and reproduction in diverse ways. Larger metazoans require less energy per unit time and mass than smaller ones. Thus, structures animals build to capture energy need not scale isometrically with body size.

Carotid artery webs (CaW) are non-atherosclerotic projections into the vascular lumen and have been linked to up to one-third of cryptogenic strokes in younger patients. Determining how CaW affects local hemodynamics is essential for understanding clot formation and stroke risk. Computational fluid dynamics simulations were used to investigate patient-specific hemodynamics in carotid artery bifurcations with CaW, bifurcations with atherosclerotic lesions having a similar degree of lumen narrowing, and with healthy carotid bifurcations.

A roll-to-roll manufacturing system performs printing and coating on webs to mass-produce large-area functional films. The functional film of a multilayered structure is composed of layers with different components for performance improvement. The roll-to-roll system is capable of controlling the geometries of the coating and printing layers using process variables.
