ratio of the index finger (2D) to the ring finger (4D) (2D:4D; Manning, Scutt, Wilson, & Lewis-Jones, 1998), along with a hypothesis about the origin of these, has spurred ongoing research interest in psychology and adjacent disciplines. Because this sex effect is determined in utero and 2D:4D shows little plasticity thereafter, 2D:4D has been suggested as an indirect marker for the organizatio...

Aspirin inhibited glucose absorption from the gastrointestinal tract of the human in viuo (Arvanitakis et al., 1977) and the rat in vitro (Cooke el al., 1979). Glucose was absorbed from the human mouth apparently by a Na+-dependent carrier-mediated process (Manning & Evered, 1976). The aim of the present study was to investigate whether aspirin also inhibited glucose transport across buccal muc...

Water flow in open channels is always subject to the resistance to flow and energy dissipation. For design purposes, one of the needed variables is the hydraulic resistance coefficient. For this mean, the influence of cross-sectional shape together with secondary flow cells and lateral distribution of true boundary shear stress have not yet been fully explored. This paper surveys the number of ...

One of the significant problems facing water resource engineer is calculating coefficient roughness for subsequent design calculations discharge amount a channel or river. In this study, experiments were conducted in semi-circular, straight to investigate factors affecting bed and flow using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). For purpose, three semi-circular models with free overfall constructed ...

To explore the characteristics of overland flow resistance under condition sparse vegetative stem coverage and improve basic theoretical research flow, were systematically investigated four slope gradients (S), seven discharges (Q), six degrees vegetation (Cr). The results show that Manning roughness coefficient (n) changes with ratio water depth to height (h/hv) while Reynolds number (Re), Fro...

me with the STATA do-files necessary to estimate the maximum likelihood model used for part of this essay. Alan Manning provided me with the data from the Longitudinal Labour Force Survey.

Abstract Spatial modelling of flood-prone areas will provide maximum results if it is supported by the accuracy data acquired, mainly related to elevation or area’s topography. generated from accurate topographic can estimate river’s carrying capacity. This study built a spatial model using aerial, terrestrial, and hydrographic surveys. Aerial surveys were conducted UAV corrected terrestrial su...

Abstract In this study, the CCHE2D model was used to analyze flow patterns in Tigris River Baghdad city around a water treatment plant. To end, calibrated and validated steady-state using relevant boundary conditions. The initial surface level at Sarai station for three discharges of 289, 530, 870 m 3 /s. Hence, appropriate manning roughness modulus equivalent mixing length turbulent models wer...

By considering the urbanization process on an overland plane whereby a relatively rough permeable surface is replaced by a relatively smooth impermeable surface, the effect of urbanization on the time of concentration is assessed. In the assessment, two opposing urbanization sequences are considered: one from downstream to upstream, and the other from upstream to downstream. The assessment is c...
