(ERA) Chair in Proteomics/Molecular Medicine the Foreign Researcher's Guide to Zagreb, Croatia ZAGREB EUROPEAN RESEARCH AREA (ERA) Chair in proteomics/molecular medicine The foreign researcher's guide to Zagreb, Croatia ZAGREB • Zagreb is the capital and the largest city of the Republic of Croatia. It is located in the northwest of the country, along the Sava river. In the last official census of 2011 the population of the City of Zagreb was 792,875. The wider Zagreb metropolitan area includes the City of Zagreb and the separate Zagreb County bringing the total metropolitan area population up to 1,110,517. It is the only metropolitan area in Croatia with a population of over one million. • The transport connections, concentration of industry, scientific and research institutions and industrial tradition underlie its leading economic position in Croatia. Zagreb is the seat of the central government, administrative bodies and almost all government ministries. Almost all of the largest Croatian companies, media and scientific institutions have their headquarters in the city. • The climate of Zagreb is classified as an oceanic climate, near the boundary of the humid continental climate. The average temperature in winter is −0.5 °C (31.1 °F) and the average temperature in summer is 22.0 °C (71.6 °F). • Accomodation in Zagreb: Useful information on accommodation facilities in Croatia (to buy or to rent) can be found on the following web sites: Real Estate Croatia >English/German/Italian/Russian, Nekretnine.com (in Croatian), Go Home (in Croatian), or Njuškalo (in Croatian).

  • SOAP FILM Una Pale
    SOAP FILM Una Pale XV gymnasium, Faculty of electrical engineering and computing, University of Zagreb, Croatia 1. Introduction When a soap film is created and placed into the electrical field it deforms. Aim of this paper is to explore and explain why the electrical field affects the soap film. It will also investigate how the parameters: electrical field (voltage), distance from charge and radius of soap film determine the shape of soap film. 2. Theory 2.1. Soap film Soap is a molecule that consists of two parts: long hydrocarbon chain and ionic end. Long hydrocarbon chain is non polar and therefore hydrophobic, while ionic end on the other side is polar and creates ion-dipole bond with water [Figure 1] It means that it is hydrophilic and soluble in water. Hydrophilic part of molecule orientates towards water molecules, while hydrophobic tends to be the furthest form water and goes to surface. This helps to visualize how the soap film looks in microscopic scale. It consists of two layers of soap separated with water layer. [Figure 2] If there is too high concentration of soap soluted in water soap molecules start to form clusters. While soap molecules are pretty compact on the surface, water molecules, ions and charges in water layer are free to move. Thickness of film is between 20 µm and 5nm. Figure 1: Soap molecule Figure 2: Soap film Since there are attractive Van der Waals forces between molecules, soap film as liquid in general tends to have the smallest surface area. Because of the E = γS where E is energy and γ is surface tension, the liquid, or in this case soap film has a resistance to change of shape because it would mean greater energy.
