By using the data of two spacecraft, TC-1 and ACE (Advanced Composition Explorer), a statistical study on the correlations between plasma sheet and solar wind has been carried out. The results obtained show that the plasma sheet at geocentric distances of about 9∼13.4 Re has an apparent driving relationship with the solar wind. It is found that (1) there is a positive correlation between the du...

This paper describes sheet modeling and thickening operations based on a non-manifold topological representation for efficient solid modeling of thin-walled plastic or sheet metal parts. Since the existing methods have adopted boundary representations for solid models, it is difficult to represent the exact adjacency relations between topological entities in a sheet model, and to describe a mix...

We use the results of a three-dimensional kinetic simulation of an Harris current sheet to shown and reproduce the ISEE-1/2, Geotail, and Cluster observations of the magnetotail current sheet structure. Current sheet flapping, current density bifurcation, and reconnection are explained as the results of the self-consistent evolution of a Harris current sheet, where lowerhybrid drift, kink, and ...

comin the present study, co2 removal from natural gas stream has been studied using a flat sheet membrane contactor. a three dimensional mathematical model is developed to describe the process. the model considers the transport of a gas mixture containing carbon dioxide and methane through a flat sheet membrane contactor module. the model is based on the non-wetted mode of operation, in which t...

sandwich sheet rolling process is investigated using an analytical method (slab method) and a numerical method (finite element method). the horizontal stress distribution in the layers, the rolling pressure along the contact interface and the neutral point between the roll and the sheet are investigated. then the affects of the parameters such as the friction between the sheet and the roll, she...

Running Title: Transmural mechanics at a LV epicardial pacing site ABSTRACT (250 words) Left ventricular (LV) epicardial pacing acutely reduces wall thickening at the pacing site. Because LV epicardial pacing also reduces transverse shear deformation, which is related to myocardial sheet shear, we hypothesized that impaired end-systolic wall thickening at the pacing site is due to reduction in ...

QBI in 162 directions (b=4500 s/mm2). In panel a), colors encode principal sheet direction and both techniques show good qualitative agreement. However, closer inspection of the SNDFs shows intravoxel sheet crossing which cannot be resolved with conventional DTI. Panel b) illustrates this for the framed voxel from a), where the DTI sheet normal direction lies in between two distinct sheet popul...
