the flow characteristics around an elliptic cylinder with an axis ratio of ar=2 located near a flat plate were investigated experimentally. the elliptic cylinder was located on the inside and outside a turbulent boundary layer region whose thickness (δ) is 0.38b. the reynolds numbers based on the height of the cylinder cross-section were 15000 and 30000. measurements of mean velocity and turbul...

carbon molecular sieve membranes (cmsms) have been considered as very promising candidates for gas separation, in terms of separation properties as well as thermal and chemical stability. due to the numerous advantages and wide applications of carbon membranes, their application for gas separation is of special importance. because of the importance of carbon membranes and a large number of stud...

the main objective of this paper is to find the necessary and sufficient condition of a given finslermetric to be einstein in order to classify the einstein finsler metrics on a compact manifold. the consideredeinstein finsler metric in the study describes all different kinds of einstein metrics which are pointwiseprojective to the given one. this study has resulted in the following theorem tha...

in this paper, we deal with the subdierential concept onhadamard spaces. flat hadamard spaces are characterized, and nec-essary and sucient conditions are presented to prove that the subdif-ferential set in hadamard spaces is nonempty. proximal subdierentialin hadamard spaces is addressed and some basic properties are high-lighted. finally, a density theorem for subdierential set is establi...

In this paper I shall present a treatment of lexical and grammatical tone and vowel length in Hausa, as implemented in an emerging bidirectional HPSG of the language based on the Lingo Grammar Matrix (Bender et al., 2002). I shall argue in particular that a systematic treatment of suprasegmental phonology is indispensible in an implemented grammar of the language, both for theoretical and pract...

Woldenberg Village, an aging-in-place residential facility, is the result of 2 years of research and development. The design solution integrates physical, social, psychological, medical, and operational requirements to provide an opportunity for a gracious, dignified life-style as an individual ages. Each component of the village is designed to provide, in an unobtrusive way, differing amounts ...

The relevant research is questioning the essence of the existence of an adequate internal circulation to human dimensions. The research was based on the method of anthropometric assessment of internal circulation de Barros (2009), which was applied in three different sizes of apartments in the city of Caruaru-PE. These apartments were evaluated through the floor plans and furniture layouts, sug...

in this research 220 rhizobial bacteria were isolated from two lentil dryland farming flat plains of moghan and koohin. they were then tested in vivo as well as in vitro to make assurance of 184 purified strains of rhizobium leguminosarum biovar vicial (lentil). btb +yma culture media with different levels of salinity through nacl (10, 20,30,40,50ds/m) application were used in salinity toleranc...
