Flame stability inside a cylindrical micro-combustor was studied. Considering occurrence of heat recirculation, the respective relations were written and with parameters such as motion speed of reactants, flame propagation speed and thermal conductivity of the combustor’s wall, flame stability and its location inside micro-combustor were studied. It was found that for each thermal conductivity ...

In this study, we numerically examine thrust performance of the linear aerospike nozzle micro-thruster for various nozzle spike lengths and flow parameters in order to identify optimal geometry(s) and operating conditions. Decomposed hydrogen-peroxide is used as the monopropellant in the studies. Performance is characterized for different flow rates (Reynolds numbers) and aerospike lengths, and...

OBJECTIVE In our study, we evaluated the potential of micro-CT for the assessment of the rat knee joint using ex vivo micro-CT arthrography. The aims of the study were to introduce the technique of micro-CT arthrography and to visualize the normal anatomy of the rat knee. The secondary aims were the quantification of retropatellar cartilage thickness and the analysis of microstructural cancello...

A new micro-macro computational strategy is proposed for the analysis of structures which are described up to the micro level, such as composite structures. The description of micro and macro quantities is performed on the interface arising from the decomposition of the structure into an assembly of substructures and interfaces. A traction-based version of the micro-macro strategy is described ...

Bioremediation uses various microorganisms to detoxify or degrade various harmful substances in the nature, particularly soil and water. In the proposed work, five species of micro-organisms were used to analyse their impact on various physico-chemical parameters of water. In the first attempt the actual physico chemical parameters of the collected sample water were noted down (Fresh sample par...

abstract:the general perception of islamic finance is that it prohibits the practice of paying and receiving interest, but islamicfinance is much broader than interest rate prohibition. islamic financial services can be viewed as a set of financialservices which are diversified based on the needs of society.since in the iranian economy most of the enterprises are micro and/or small, micro finan...

a micro-channel heat exchanger reactor with different micro-baffle shapes has been studied numerically. governing equations were solved base on the finite volume method with fluent software. in upper section, oxidation reaction of methanol was occurred and in lower section, steam reforming of methanol was done. two sections were separated with solid part which played as heat exchanger and trans...

OBJECTIVE Abdominal dermolipectomy after massive weight loss has become a standard procedure. However the complication rates such as wound necrosis or secondary healing complications are still high. In this context ischaemia or inadequate micro-perfusion are known as triggers of wound healing complications. Little is known about the regional perfusion patterns before and after post-bariatric ab...

Propagation of waves in elastic porous media, e.g. polymeric foams, is described by Biot-Allard’s theory [1]. Two classes of characteristic parameters are needed to describe the porous media in this theory. First, non-acoustic parameters: porosity φ, thermal characteristic length Λ′, viscous characteristic length Λ, flow resistivity σ, and tortuosity α∞ which are used in Johnson-Champoux-Allard...
