Dynamic Properties of Water Confined in Graphene-Based Membrane: A Classical Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study
Published 2019“…We found that the water droplet translates as a whole body rather than a dissipate. The translational diffusion coefficient along the graphene surface increases as the number of water molecules in the droplet decreases, because the bigger water droplet has a stronger van der Waals interaction with the graphene surface that hampers the translational motion. …”

Differential water quality in confined and free-flowing water bodies, Lebanon
Published 2003“…Statistical analysis of the data revealed significant differences in water quality. The differences could be attributed to the fact that whereas the Qaraaoun reservoir is receiving domestic waste discharges that lead to an increase in the CO2 content and a pH decrease, the Nahr-Ibrahim River is influenced by agricultural runoffs and industrial discharges that increase the pH values. …”

Acoustic radiation-free surface phononic crystal resonator for in-liquid low-noise gravimetric detection
Published 2021“…However, they generally suffer from strong acoustic radiation in liquid, which limits their quality factor and increases their frequency noise. This article presents an acoustic radiation-free gravimetric biosensor based on a locally resonant surface phononic crystal (SPC) consisting of periodic high aspect ratio electrodes to address the above issue. …”
