What have the Earths' Mantle & an Egyptian Mummy in Common?
This paper will start with an overview of the Manchester Visualization Centre (MVC), what we do, why we do it and who we do it to. The main elements of the paper will be to present four examples of our work: Visualization of Egyptian Mummy 1766, one of the Egyptian mummies belonging to the University Museum. We will explain what we did with the CT scan of this mummy, the special techniques that...
متن کاملCould Neonatal Hypernatremia Dehydration Influence Hearing Status?
Introduction: Neonatal hypernatremia dehydration (NHD) is a dangerous condition in neonates, which is accompanied by acute complications (renal failure, cerebral edema, and cerebral hemorrhage) and chronic complications (developmental delay). Children begin learning language from birth, and hearing impairment interferes with this process. We assessed the hearing status of infants with hypernatr...
متن کاملExtremely long transition phase of thermal convection in the mantle of massive super-Earths
Adiabatic compression is a key factor that exerts control over thermal convection in the compressible solid mantle of super-Earths. To discuss the effects of adiabatic compression, we present a numerical model of transient convection in the cooling mantle of a super-Earth that is ten times larger in size than the Earth. The calculations started with the shallow mantle that was hotter than expec...

متن کاملThe Interaction of Plume Heads With Compositional Discontinuities in the Earths Mantle
The effects of compositional discontinuities of density and viscosity in the Earth's mantle on the ascent of mantle plume heads is studied using a boundary integral numerical technique. Three specific problems are considered: (1) a plume head rising away from a deformable interface, (2) a plume head passing through an.interface, and (3) a plume head approaching the surface of the Earth. For the...
