THE NUNATAK ICE THINNING (NUNAIT) CALCULATOR FOR COSMONUCLIDE ELEVATION PROFILES


Design of car body structure for articulated EMUs

In order to meet the demands of the European market, a new articulated car body structure for EMUs has been developed in compliance with the requirements of the European technical specifications for interoperability (TSIs) and incorporating the installation requirements of the articulated bogies.By optimizing the force flow transfer path and adopti

The swim-and-sink behaviour of copepods: a revisit to mechanical power requirement and a new hypothesis on function

Many copepods display a swim-and-sink behaviour, which is not energetically efficient but probably aids in perceiving and capturing diatom chains.Here, computational fluid dynamics was employed to calculate the mechanical Totes power required by a negatively buoyant, self-propelled copepod in swim-and-sink versus hovering.The results show that upwa

Soret and Dufour Effects on Natural Convection Flow Past a Vertical Surface in a Porous Medium with Variable Viscosity

The heat and mass transfer characteristics of natural convection about a vertical surface embedded in a saturated Western Bridles porous medium subject to variable viscosity are numerically analyzed, by taking into account the diffusion-thermo (Dufour) and thermal-diffusion (Soret) effects.The governing equations of continuity, momentum, energy, an
