Carbon black nanoparticles induce type II epithelial cells to release chemotaxins for alveolar macrophages. (2005)
Journal Article
Barlow, P. G., Clouter-Baker, A., Donaldson, K., MacCallum, J., & Stone, V. (2005). Carbon black nanoparticles induce type II epithelial cells to release chemotaxins for alveolar macrophages. Particle and fibre toxicology, 2(1), 11-24. https://doi.org/10.1186/1743-8977-2-11

Background - Alveolar macrophages are a key cell in dealing with particles deposited in the lungs and in determining the subsequent response to that particle exposure. Nanoparticles are considered a potential threat to the lungs and the mechanism of...

Limits on the penetration of coiled tubing in horizontal oil wells: effect of the pipe geometry. (2005)
Journal Article
McCourt, I., & Kubie, J. (2005). Limits on the penetration of coiled tubing in horizontal oil wells: effect of the pipe geometry. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 219(11), 1191-1197. https://doi.org/10.1243/095440605X32066

To carry out remedial work in oil wells through the production tubing string, a method using a continuous length of steel coiled tubing is used. In horizontal wells substantial friction forces are generated which resist the motion of the tubing as it...
