in the current study, the immersed boundary – non-newtonian lattice boltzmann method is developed for simulation of forces act on a particle and also for computation of the particle velocity in vicinity of non-newtonian fluids. in this research, the effect of extra force due to accelerated mass is also considered in non-newtonian particle motion equations. two applied problems of power-law non-...

A "triaxial velocity sensor" consists of three uniaxial velocity sensors, which are nominally identical, orthogonally oriented among themselves, and co-centered at one point in space. A triaxial velocity sensor measures the acoustic particle velocity vector, by its three Cartesian components, individually component-by-component, thereby offering azimuth-elevation two-dimensional spatial directi...

in the current study, five different atomistic water models (awms) are implemented, in order to investigate the impact of awms treatment on the water velocity profile and density number. for this purpose, molecular dynamics simulation (mds) of poiseuille flow in a nano-channel is conducted. considered awms are spc/e, tip3p, tip4p, tip4pfq and tip5p. to assessment of the ability of each model in...

In this paper, the elastic properties of passive materials (matching, backing and lens materials) for ultrasound transducers are explored at room temperature in the frequency range of 25-65MHz using the ultrasonic spectroscopy method. AlurninaJEPOTEK 301 and tungsten/EPO-TEK 301 composites were fabricated and measured. Experimental results display a monotonic rise in acoustic impedance of the c...

in blasting operations different proportions of the energy released are consumed in fragmenting the rock mass, heating up the surrounding and some portion of it is used in propagating blast waves, causing vibration of the particles in the nearby environment. however, reflections, transmissions and absorptions lead the attenuation of these waves. the influence of the extent of rock-mass disconti...

Two-particle correlations and event-wise fluctuations in transverse momentum p t are reported for Au-Au collisions at √ s N N = 62 and 200 GeV on pseudorapidity η and azimuth φ. Distributions of all pairs of particles (no leading trigger particle) reveal jet-like correlations, or peaks at pair-wise opening angles of order 1 radian or less. The width of this same-side correlation peak increases ...

OBJECTIVE Pubertal gynecomastia (PG) occurs in up to 65% of adolescent boys. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the ages at which PG and peak height velocity occur in pubertal boys. METHODS This was a prospective study that was designed to detect PG within three months of its emergence. We examined one hundred and six boys who were followed for short stature and/or delaye...
