This paper presents a multi scale color coding technique which enhances the visualization of scalar fields along integration lines in vector fields. In particular, this multi scale technique enables one to see detailed variations in selected small ranges of the scalar field while at the same time allowing one to observe the entire range of values of the scalar field. This type of visualization,...

Identification of new sources of salt tolerance is particularly important to develop crop varieties suitable for saline soils. We evaluated 129 Pakistani and 58 exotic wheat landraces/cultivars grown in Hoagland's hydroponic nutrient solution, under control (tap water equivalent to 10 mM salt) and salt stress (200 mM NaCl) conditions. Forty-four genotypes were also tested under 250 mM NaCl...

Ink transfer process from the printing roll to the web was investigated using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique for the roll-to-roll (R2R) printing application. A parametric study was conducted to identify the effects of fluid parameters such as viscosity, surface tension and contact angle. To make the present analysis more relevant to the real printing system, a three-dimensional ...

Conditional functional dependencies (CFDs) have been recently introduced in the context of data cleaning. They can be seen as an unification of functional dependencies (FDs) and association rules (AR) since they allow to mix attributes and attribute/values in dependencies. In this paper, we introduce our first results on constant CFD inference. Not surprisingly, data mining techniques developed...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a mathematical tool capable of simulating a wide range of fluid flows. Integrated CFD software has been applied to study the flows in oilfield separators. The influence of inlets, internals, and outlets has been studied with CFD simulations. Of particular value has been the ability of CFD to simulate wave induced sloshing in vessels mounted on floating plat...

It is becoming a popular practice for architects and HVAC engineers to simulate airflows in and around buildings by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods in order to predict indoor and outdoor environments . However, many CFD programs are crippled by a historically poor and inefficient user interface system, particularly for users with little training in numerical simulation. This investig...

Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) code calculates flow properties for the analysis of a flow system. Flow properties are computed based on conservation principles and various phenomenological models. The accuracy of the computed flow properties highly depends on the validity of the models and the degree of numerical convergence. Validation of a CFD code is essential for application of an engine...

In Thailand, RSS chamber of community-level rubber cooperatives can be classified into two models: old and new model, named after the years of their establishment. Hot gas as a heat supply from Para-rubber (PR) wood (Hevea brasiliensis) combustion is used for removing moisture from the natural rubber (NR) sheets. Smoke and soot particles from PR wood burning has effected to the quality of the N...
