We contribute to the growing literature on the behavior of capital flow surges and their relationships with sudden stops and capital flow reversals. We suggest a definition of true sudden stops based on gross foreign flows that is a subset of net capital flow reversals. We find that a majority of surges end in reversals of some type and this percentage is only slightly over half for surges in n...

In this work, we investigate both numerically and theoretically the sound generated by entropy waves passing through sudden area expansions. The numerical approach is based on a triple decomposition of flow variables into steady mean, small-amplitude coherent part, stochastic turbulent part. mean obtained as solution Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations. equations governing perturba...

In this paper, the flow characteristics due to asymmetric sudden contraction is discussed based on experimental investigation when the flow through the contracted section passed from subcritical to critical flow. The experiments are conducted on a 30 cm wide, 45 cm deep and 10.5 m long laboratory flume. Different contraction ratios are considered. Different lengths of the contracted section are...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the dentoskeletal effects of different anterior open bite treatment modalities in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cephalometric study assessed changes resulting from different treatment approaches on 77 growing children with anterior open bite. A control group (n = 30) was used for comparison. Lateral cephalograms were available before treatment and after 12 months....

Since impairment of cochlear blood flow is one of the factors implicated in the pathophysiology of sudden deafness, we measured cochlear blood flow in nine patients suspected of having perilymphatic fistulas. All but one patient had sudden sensorineural hearing loss. The exceptional case had experienced rotatory vertigo immediately after nose-blowing. In the eight patients with sudden deafness,...

Abstract We report observations of the self-assembly coated droplets into regular clusters at sudden expansion a microfluidic channel. A double emulsion consisting train microdroplets was created upstream channel expansion, so that inter-drop distance, droplet length, velocity and coating thickness could be varied by imposing different inlet pressures, albeit not independently. Provided enlarge...
