Drug Abuse and Addiction: Pharmacological Phenomena

1.2K
Drug dependence, abuse, and addiction are complex phenomena that can precipitate various abnormal states. Physical dependence refers to a state of pharmacological adaptation to a drug. This adaptation often results in tolerance—a reduced response to the drug after repeated administrations. When the drug use is abruptly stopped, withdrawal symptoms occur due to the body's need to readjust from the pharmacologically induced imbalance. However, tolerance and withdrawal symptoms do not...

Analyte Adsorption and Distribution

2.5K
In certain chromatographic separations, solutes transfer between the mobile phase and the stationary phase via sorption, which typically refers to the process of adsorption. For many chromatographic systems, the sorption process often depends on the polarity of the compounds—an expression of the overall dipole moment within the molecule. During the separation process, there is competition between the solute and solvent for adsorption to the stationary phase. Highly polar compounds and...

Aggregates Classification01:29

Aggregates Classification

981
Aggregate classification is generally based on its size, petrographic characteristics, weight, and source. Size classification ranges from coarse to fine aggregates, defined by the size of the particles. Coarse aggregates are particles that do not pass through ASTM sieve No. 4, and aggregates that pass through the sieve are fine aggregates.
Petrographic classification groups aggregates based on common mineralogical characteristics. Some of the common mineral groups found in aggregates are...

Bonding and Strength of Aggregate01:12

Bonding and Strength of Aggregate

482
The bond between aggregate particles and the cement matrix is significantly influenced by the shape and surface texture of the aggregates. High-strength concretes benefit from a rougher texture, which leads to stronger bonding due to greater adhesion. Angular aggregates with larger surface areas also enhance this bond. The bonding quality, however, is complex to assess as no universally accepted test exists. Good bonding is indicated when a crushed concrete specimen shows some aggregate...

Specific Gravity of Aggregate01:19

Specific Gravity of Aggregate

776
Aggregates typically contain pores, which can be either permeable or impermeable. Considering the pores in the aggregates, the specific gravity of aggregates is defined in three different forms, namely, bulk or gross specific gravity, apparent specific gravity, and absolute specific gravity.
Bulk or gross specific gravity is calculated by taking the ratio of the mass of aggregates in the saturated surface-dry state to the total volume that includes both the solids and the voids within the...

Bulk Density of Aggregate01:22

Bulk Density of Aggregate

1.1K
Bulk density refers to the mass of aggregate particles that would fill a unit volume. The concept of bulk density originates from the inability to pack aggregate particles in a manner that completely eliminates void spaces. Hence, the term bulk refers to the volume that encompasses both the aggregates and the voids. This measurement is crucial when aggregates are batched by volume and is used to convert quantities by mass to volume.
Most natural mineral aggregates, like sand and gravel,...

  • System parameters included low densities and varying wall-particle attraction strengths.
  • Main Results:

    • Adsorbed layer structure transitions from undeformed clusters to flattened clusters or stripes with increasing attraction.
    • Adsorption time shows a rapid, power-law increase with wall attraction strength due to repulsive barriers.
    • A depletion region forms beyond the adsorbed layer, with density inversely related to attraction strength.
    • Bulk properties reveal a structural crossover and a double-peaked cluster size distribution.

    Conclusions:

    • Wall-particle attraction significantly dictates self-assembly and adsorption behavior at surfaces.
    • The dynamics of adsorption are governed by repulsive forces from the adsorbed layer.
    • Simulation results align with theoretical predictions for self-assembling systems, offering insights into complex interfacial phenomena.
