the paper numerically presents laminar forced convection of a nanofluid flowing in a duct at microscale. results were compared with both analytical and experimental data and observed good concordance with previous studies available in the literature. influences of brinkman and reynolds number on thermal and hydrodynamic indexes have been investigated. for a given nanofluid, no change in efficie...

This article reviews the path integral formulation and its time derivative that leads to a set of hierarchical equations of motion (EOM) for treating nonperturbative and non-Markovian quantum dissipation at an arbitrary finite temperature. Quantum dissipation refers to the reduced dynamics of a system embedded in a medium (or bath). The latter consists of macroscopic degrees of freedom whose ef...

It is noted that the results of recent experiments on the enhancement of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) dissipation below surface waves can be stated as follows. TKE dissipation is enhanced by a factor 15Hws/z at depths 0.5Hws < z < 20Hws with respect to the wall-layer result ǫ = u ∗w/κz, where u∗w is the friction velocity in water and Hws is the significant windsea wave height. For open ocean ...

This paper introduces a peculiar approach of designing Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) memory cell in Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) technique. The proposed design consists of one 3-input MG, one 5-input MG in addition to a (2×1) Multiplexer block utilizing the loop-based approach. The simulation results reveals the excellence of the proposed design. The proposed SRAM cell achieves 16% ...

Effects of energy dissipation on quantum nucleation of two-flavor quark matter in dense nuclear matter encountered in neutron star cores are examined at low temperatures. We find that low-energy excitations of nucleons and electrons reduce the nucleation rate exponentially via their collisions with the surface of a quark matter droplet. ∗) E-mail address: [email protected] 1 typ...

this paper investigates the importance of considering biomass growth and decay for predicting a field scale microbial degradation of btex plume in an unconfined aquifer system in the pump station area of tehran oil refinery (tor), iran. a two-dimensional finite volume model has been presented to predict multi-species reactive transport incorporating physical, chemical and biological processes i...
