The state-of-the-art for Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of boiling multiphase flows is reviewed, focussing on potential of available computational techniques, the level of current success for their applications to model several basic flow regimes (film, pool-nucleate and wall-nucleate boiling – FB, PNB and WNB, respectively). Then, we discuss multiphysics and multiscale nature of practical b...

Introduction: Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) provides a method to non-invasively assess tissue perfusion, and has recently been applied to study the kidney [1]. The importance of ASL methods to study the kidney has been highlighted due to the diagnosis of Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF), a side effect of gadolinium based contrast agents [2]. Prior ASL studies of the kidney typically acquire d...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Group B streptococcal (GBS) disease is the most common cause of early onset neonatal sepsis. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends performing recto-vaginal cultures on pregnant woman to detect GBS, followed by treatment of women with positive cultures. Our facility adopted selective culture screening in 1997 using a colistin-naladixic acid (CNA) plate media ...

Multiphase machines are AC machines characterized by a stator winding composed of a generic number n of phases. In today’s electric drive and power generation technology, multiphase machines play an important role for the benefits they bring compared to traditional three-phase ones (Levi, 2008; Levi et al., 2007). Such benefits have been widely highlighted by existing literature (Levi et al., 2...

and Applied Analysis 3 Moreover, if the pairs (f, R), (g, S), and (h, T) are weakly compatible, then f, g, h, R, S, and T have a unique common fixed point in X. Proof. First, we suppose that the subspace RX is closed inX, fX ⊆ SX, gX ⊆ TX, and two pairs of (f, R) and (g, S) satisfy common (E.A) property.Then by Definition 11 we know that, there exist two sequences {x n } and {y n } inX such tha...

abstract this survey accomplished for asessment and mechanism recognition of chenaran watershed landslide effective factors and its zonation based via lim model. primarily recognized effective factors, through studing and field survey and evaluated by landslide index method(lim) then based on their weight in model, landslide hazard zonation was done.then evaluated this model competence in zonat...

this paper presents a sensorless system drive on primary flux oriented control (pfoc) and secondary flux oriented control (sfoc) for the linear induction motor (lim) with taking into account end effect. extended kalman filter (ekf) is applied to estimate lim speed by measuring motor voltages and currents. in order to achieve desirable dynamic and robustness motor performance instead of traditio...

Title of Dissertation: NUMERICAL MODELING OF MULTIPHASE

The examination of gill parasites from Pangasius micronemao Bleeker, 1847 (Siluriformes, Pangasiidae) in Southeast Asia revealed the presence of nine species of Monogenea. Two (Thoparocleidus brevicochleus Pariselle, Lim & Lambert, 2001 and T. sinespinoe Pariselle, Lim & Lambert, 2001) have been previously described. Among the others, six species, belonging to Thaporocleidus Jain, 1952 (Monogen...

We establish sufficient conditions for the linear differential equations of fourth order (r(t)y′′′(t))′ = a(t)y(t) + b(t)y′(t) + c(t)y′′(t) + f(t) so that all oscillatory solutions of the equation satisfy lim t→∞ y(t) = lim t→∞ y′(t) = lim t→∞ y′′(t) = lim t→∞ r(t)y′′′(t) = 0, where r : [0,∞)→ (0,∞), a, b, c and f : [0,∞)→ R are continuous functions. A suitable Green’s function and its estimate...
