customs; and, of course, always with the naive assumption that one's o^l and one's own stick are inviolable. I remember being told, on returning ?'< visit to some children's hospitals in Barcelona, that we have nothing whate'i learn from Spain, apart from guitar playing and bull-fighting; my inform u course, has yet to go there to confirm this opinion. It was amusing to setsr this the remark of...

A newly developed system for defining watertight volume geometry on imported foreign CAD models is described. This system is based on an overlay grid mesher that is being developed in the GAMBIT preprocessing code. It is being explored as an alternative way of cleaning dirty geometries. This overlay meshing based geometry cleanup enables an automatic volume reconstruction from inconsistent B-Re...

We derive a one-period look-ahead policy for finiteand infinite-horizon online optimal learning problems with Gaussian rewards. Our approach is able to handle the case where our prior beliefs about the rewards are correlated, which is not handled by traditional multi-armed bandit methods. Experiments show that our KG policy performs competitively against the best known approximation to the opti...

In the present investigation the explosion characteristics of 30% H2/70% CH4-blended fuels have been experimentally studied in different turbulent environments. Some important indicators about the explosion characteristics, including maximum explosion pressure (pmax), explosion duration (tc), maximum rate of pressure rise ((dp/dt)max), deflagration index (KG), and fast burn period (tb) have bee...

Let V (n, k, s) be the set of k-subsets S of [n] such that for all i, j ∈ S, we have |i−j| ≥ s We define almost s-stable Kneser hypergraph KG ( [n] k )∼ s-stab to be the r-uniform hypergraph whose vertex set is V (n, k, s) and whose edges are the r-uples of disjoint elements of V (n, k, s). With the help of a Zp-Tucker lemma, we prove that, for p prime and for any n ≥ kp, the chromatic number o...

We study the unit group of the modular group algebra KG, where G is a 2-group of maximal class. We prove that the unit group of KG possesses a section isomorphic to the wreath product of a group of order two with the commutator subgroup of the group G.

This paper tells about the CFD analysis of 2D Canard arrangement in supersonic cruise missiles. High heat dissipation rate causes the Canards to reduce its primary work of providing rotational stability to missile. This paper discusses about the criteria of choosing notched canard model against the present model. The models were designed in GAMBIT and analysed using FLUENT. Various pressure, te...

A series of 43 traumatic head impact experiments on non-human primates carried out in the past were simulated with a validated finite element model of the specimens. From these simulations, brain tissue response and head accelerations were extracted. Based on these accelerations, existing global head injury criteria (HIC, BRIC, GAMBIT and RIC) were calculated. Correlation between the local brai...

The future annotations of MultiLisp provide a simple method for taming the implicit par allelism of functional programs but require touch operations within all placeholder strict prim itives to ensure proper synchronization between threads These touch operations contribute substantially to program execution times We use an operational semantics of future devel oped in a previous paper to derive...
